NextEnergy
is accelerating technologies that transform how we use energy to live and move.
Energy is required for everything we do.
It’s needed within our homes, workplaces, public spaces, and centers of commerce. It’s also needed to get people and goods from point A to point B. As more people around the globe gravitate to urban centers in pursuit of a higher-standard of living, we expect a greater demand for energy that will lead to congestion and a strain on our resources and aging infrastructure.
To address these issues, NextEnergy is working to accelerate the commercialization of more efficient, accessible, affordable, safer, and cleaner technologies that will transform how we use energy to live and move.
