Enabling a Clean Energy Transition
The grid is rapidly evolving, and it will take AI-driven solutions to create a more resilient, stable and clean energy system for all.
The Grid Is Rapidly
Evolving.
With the rise of renewables and distributed generation and the decline in fossil fuels — our electrical system is undergoing radical transformations in the way we generate, distribute, store, and consume energy. What was once a one-directional flow is now a complex, dynamic network where consumers double as energy producers.
It Will Take AI-Driven Solutions.
Renewable energy is inherently variable — making AI-analytics essential. Our Athena® AI-powered platform allows customers to forecast net load and automatically switch between onsite generation, battery power and grid power — maximizing renewable sources while minimizing reliance on fossil fuels and stabilizing the grid during peak demand.
To Create a Clean Energy System for All.
We have the technology to decarbonize — to create an accessible, affordable, reliable, clean, and healthy power infrastructure. The question is: will it modernize enough of the grid in time? Stem is committed to delivering the cost-savings and reliability necessary to incentivize the rapid, system-wide energy transition we all need and deserve.
Our focus is clear
To achieve our mission, we must help to accelerate environmental recovery, deliver stability, build the foundation for social equity, and maintain the highest levels of integrity as an organization.
Speed
Scientists agree that we have a dwindling window of time to take action and limit the rise in average global temperatures. Decarbonization cannot wait. Stem is on a mission to accelerate environmental recovery through our AI-driven energy systems and storage solutions. Stem has been recognized as a Global Cleantech 100 company for our contribution to a more digitized, de-carbonized, and resource-efficient industrial future.
Stability
Whether from extreme weather events or soaring demand, power failures can cost billions of dollars, jeopardize essential services, and result in devastating loss of life. At Stem, we’re committed to creating stable, reliable performance for customers, partners, and municipalities. Our smart energy storage systems help to avoid overtaxing the grid and provide fast, clean backup power during down times.
Equity
Under-resourced communities and communities of color disproportionately bear the burden of economic and environmental injustice – including unequal access to energy. At Stem, we’re helping to build the foundation for energy equity through solutions that deliver affordable, reliable, clean, and healthy energy to underserved communities. For example, Stem has been awarded several projects through California’s equity and resiliency programs, which benefit lower income, medically vulnerable, and fire-risk communities.
Commitment
Our values and actions directly impact our ability to incentivize, advocate, and deliver. That’s why we’re: Pursuing eco-efficient operations. Committing to hiring diverse talent. Continuing company-wide unconscious bias and discrimination training. Creating a modern, inclusive, and innovative culture. Volunteering within our communities. Working with our partners and suppliers to improve their social and environmental performance. And advocating for energy resilience and equity within industry, government, and local municipalities around the country.
