Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Smart Home Energy Management with Dan Fletcher, Co-Founder of dcbel | Part 2
Q: So maybe just kind of give us an overview of what Dcbel does.
Dcbel combines solar, storage, and bi-directional EV charging into a single home energy station, performing on-device optimization to decide how best to use energy for charging, loads, and grid interactions, with both DC and AC charging capabilities.
Recycling batteries and PV with Blue Water's President Steve Feinberg
Q: How does Bluewater handle repowering and old PV modules?
They repower by removing older modules, matching and replacing them with newer, higher-wattage ones, and then remanufacturing or shipping the old modules to be reused or recycled depending on condition; they avoid landfill and emphasize true recycling and reuse.
Recycling batteries and PV with Blue Water's President Steve Feinberg
Q: What is the angle with Bluewater in terms of their core business?
Bluewater started by collecting decommissioned utility-scale batteries and solar panels for recycling, but expanded to moving and handling new batteries, solar modules, and other surplus equipment, effectively providing a brokerage and logistics service to find reuse or recycling options.
Renewable Energy Community Relations with Heather Newport of Aileron Communications
Q: Is Heather confident in educating communities about energy storage fire safety and related risks?
Heather emphasizes acknowledging valid concerns, engaging fire chiefs early, and using simple, transparent explanations about risk mitigation to build trust.
Anker SOLIX Home Energy Storage with David Taylor
Q: Is the system designed for DIY installation or professional installers?
It's designed for both DIY and professional installers, with the caveat that some tasks like main panel work are better handled by a licensed electrician; Anker provides support and a pre-made linking cable to simplify wiring.
