Electric Fish

Electric Fish is developing a DC microgrid which can accommodate agnostic Electric Vehicle (EV) charging for current and future-ready voltage architectures with a minimal grid connection. Their innovation is a containerized-microgrid, integrating EV chargers with mini grid-scale batteries that can be charged at high-renewable-energy hours of the day to store clean energy – a single module that can support ultrafast charging but acts as a resource, rather than a liability for the grid. This battery storage-integrated EV charging approach can plug into existing electrical infrastructure at a common essential business, such as a gas station, convenience store, or car dealership, without requiring make-ready infrastructure. As a result, trenching and costly infrastructure upgrades like transformer replacements are not required, expediting the permitting process of an equivalent DC Fast charger (350 kW) by up to 17 months.
