Incubatenergy® Labs is built for startups to engage utilities in paid demonstration projects. A utilities summit and collaborative demonstrations program in one, the program links startup companies leading the advancement of electrification, decarbonization and grid modernization with utilities from around the world that have the capacity and desire to demonstrate and scale those innovations. We structured the program to give you maximum exposure to utilities and ensure that the results of a successful demonstration with one utility turns into opportunities with many.
Through Incubatenergy Labs, EPRI and a group of leading utilities are engaging early stage companies to demonstrate and deploy innovative solutions in targeted areas. Incubatenergy Labs is your opportunity to get behind the scenes with a number of the largest electric utilities in the U.S.
Up to 20 applicants will be invited to a kickoff Pitch Day and Innovation Expo at EPRI’s Electrification 2020 International Conference and Exposition where you’ll present to, and engage participating industry leaders, innovation scouts, and subject matter experts to identify opportunities for paid demonstrations of your solution. With this invitation, you’ll receive a complimentary full-access pass and booth space on the expo floor to showcase to an expected 2,000 industry experts.
