Our Grid Maestro™ platform is our turnkey virtual power plant solution which can be operated as a standalone tool or integrated into any existing DERMs platform. We use machine learning to develop device-level profiles for each asset under management and optimize dispatch based on each users’ historical usage. This enables us to both maximize the value of each asset and create ideal experiences for the occupants.
Our suite of device solutions includes water heaters (our genesis), batteries, solar inverters, thermostats, pool pumps, EV chargers, and whole home meters. We can provide services anywhere from aggregated multiple of various devices through our Grid Maestro to background analytics for whole-home solutions in order to identify new opportunities. We can bring new units into the fleet through in-line splicing of older devices, connections via newer CTA-2045 ports, and direct API integration.

About Shifted Energy
Shifted Energy was created to enable widespread access to energy solutions. When Hawaii set the first 100% clean energy mandate in the US, Shifted’s co-founder Olin Lagon sat on the governing board. During board discussions, Olin realized that many of the proposed ideas would be inaccessible to renters and low-income residents. Shifted was formed to create scalable solutions for these communities, beginning with a low-cost control service for an asset which can be found in every home: water heaters. Shifted has since expanded its analytical and control capabilities to cover a growing pool of assets and services while maintaining a consistent focus: enabling everyone to participate in the energy transition.

Read More“Since the installation of the water heater controllers, we have been able to address several water heater issues ranging from failing elements and thermostats to finding a leak. We are very impressed with the outcome of having these controllers and having these provided at no cost to the property is a very valuable service that [Shifted Energy] has provided to us.”

>“We have successfully deployed multiple GIWH pilot projects with Shifted Energy over the last five years, so we are confident in the technology’s capabilities. The key value propositions with two-way communications of GIWH technology are granular visibility into the current state of each asset, forecasting and provision of multiple grid services from a single device in a single day plus real-time monitoring and verification of performance during events.”
