Storage duration is configurable from roughly 1 to 100 hours, and the model reuses existing wells, electrical infrastructure, industrial sites and the oilfield workforce. Its first Gravity Well pilot is installed and operating with California Resources Corporation, a management-approved five-well pilot with Occidental is advancing, and five more California Energy Commission-funded installations follow near Bakersfield in 2027.

TrelliSense makes long-range, continuous open-path laser sensors that detect, locate and quantify methane emissions from the ground in near real time. Shrinking the laser platform brought per-site cost down far enough for single-site monitoring to pencil, covering both leak detection in oil and gas, landfills and wastewater and MMRV for agricultural methane abatement. TrelliSense closed its Seed in spring 2025 led by a large strategic, has paid contracts for roughly 100 new customer sites owned by top-five operators in oil and gas, landfills, Tribal energy and wastewater, and holds two full patents plus three provisionals.

Project K Energy is commercializing potassium-ion batteries for AI hyperscalers and next-generation EV OEMs, eliminating lithium, cobalt, nickel and copper from the cell entirely. Removing these materials eliminates the price and supply-chain exposure that comes with them, and potassium-ion chemistry offers advantages over LFP, NMC, and sodium on fast charging, safety, cost, and low temperature performance. The team has moved the chemistry from TRL <2 to >5 in three years, demonstrated 2,000 cycles on small cells and is now testing >1 Ah cells past 200 cycles, and scaled to multi-layer pouch cells. Project K is backed by $2.6M from the U.S. DOE and $650K from the California Energy Commission.

Hyperlume builds high speed, ultra low power, low cost optical interconnects for datacenters and high performance computing systems.

MIMiC Systems builds solid-state heating and cooling: modular units that use thermoelectric devices with advances in power electronics and controls to deliver precise thermal output with no refrigerant, no compressor and no moving parts. Removing the compressor cuts maintenance cost and extends system life, and the modular format makes retrofits far faster to install than vapor-compression equipment. MIMiC received an NSF Phase II award to scale material fabrication, has signed a corporate partner for commercial product co-development now underway, and has been featured on CNN and in MIT Technology Review.
