I am excited to publicly launch
@basepowerco
with my co-founder
@JLopas
and the rest of our team.
We started Base to make power more affordable and reliable, by building the foundation for the energy transition - starting with distributed battery storage

We
@basepowerco
are grateful for the support of
@GregAbbott_TX
and his team as we work to make power more affordable and reliable for Texas homeowners
Great to meet with
@basepowerco
CEO Zach Dell yesterday at the Texas Capitol.
We discussed ways we can work together to bolster the power grid.
Texas continues to take important steps to ensure reliable, dispatchable power for all Texans.

They have been an incredible partner to

If you are a team with ambitious plans, Thrive should be your first call.
We are humbled to announce the close of Thrive IX. Exceeding $5 billion, Thrive IX comprises $1 billion designated for early-stage investments and $4 billion designated for growth-stage investments.
At Thrive we aim to be concentrated in both people and ideas. The ways in which

Comprehensive deep dive from
@packyM
. For those looking to learn more about our team, mission, vision, and strategy - this is the piece to read.
Base Power Company is coming out of stealth today.
The plan: put batteries on Texans' homes. Make money trading power in the country's most volatile power market. Fix the grid. Unlock the clean energy future.
That's as hard as it sounds, but Base pulled together a team from

Justin Lopas (

‣ Head of Manufacturing at Anduril
‣ And now, co-founder of Base Power
Fresh out of stealth, Base builds home batteries 2x larger than a Tesla Powerwall.
Here's how:

Well said
@packyM
- the integration is the innovation
Aggregators won the Internet era by owning demand and not owning supply.
The exact opposite model will win the Techno-Industrial era.
Vertical integration is back.

ERCOT issued a notice of "possible future Emergency Condition of reserve capacity deficiency" for Fri & Sat nights. It's a good time to learn about

Homeowners in parts of Texas can sign up for our beta today to save money on electricity, and protect their homes from power outages with a Base battery.
We quietly launched our beta last month, and have already saved our first customers thousands of dollars and protected them

If you have the opportunity to work with

@terraincap
- jump at it.
They were ideal day 1 investors - strategically, tactically, and creatively helpful.
The breakout companies of today started by calling their shot...
In retrospect, it's clear that the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in 2023 marked the ceremonial end of one startup era as we begin a new one.
That 15-year cycle was defined by increasingly standardized and

Grateful to work on hard problems in this great country with the
@basepowerco
team.
Happy 4th 🇺🇸
Today on Volts: A new startup,
@basepowerco
, is effectively giving its Texas customers oversized home batteries for the cost of installation. Homeowners get reliable backup power; Base uses the extra storage capacity to trade in the market. Intriguing!

"The cost to create power has gone down pretty dramatically over the last decade... but the cost to move it—transmission and distribution—has gone up. If you've lived anywhere in the country, your power has gotten more expensive."
