Scale Microgrid Solutions designs, builds, finances, operates, and maintains microgrid systems for commercial and industrial clients. Its microgrids combine solar power, battery storage, and dispatchable generation to create localized energy that can run independently or alongside the main grid, improving reliability and sustainability. The company offers turnkey solutions with in-house design, construction, procurement, and ongoing operations and maintenance (a vertically integrated model), which helps ensure quality and lowers total costs for customers—typically reducing annual energy expenses by 10-15%. Revenue comes from project development fees, long-term service agreements, and sharing energy savings with clients, with funding supported by institutional capital. Scale Microgrid Solutions aims to deliver reliable, resilient, and cost-effective energy and to expand access to distributed energy through its integrated, turnkey approach.
