The Storage Thesis, Executed. Congrats to my former colleagues at FlexGen for acquiring CES and increasing their capacity for keeping energy storage systems running at the highest levels of availability and safety in the market. 5 Years ago, we set out to build a storage company that wouldn’t focus on making the battery boxes but to help asset owners buy them, commission them and keep them running. With a portfolio of control systems, software built over a decade and an amazing team, FlexGen slowly built itself into the largest integrator not hyping its own box and continues to build that lead expanding even further into the storage asset operations support. Most battery systems don’t run as well as they could, certainly aren’t balancing remotely and barely doing any data analytics on their performance, and you deserve better.
