Today we announced the closing of an additional $25 million revolving credit facility from NY Green Bank, a division of NYSERDA. This upsized facility brings our total financing from NYGB to $50 million, fueling our mission to support New York's transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources. Kelsey Clair, Director at NY Green Bank, who co-led the transaction, said, “This catalytic financing… is spurring multiples of invested capital on our contribution and driving significant impact in a key growth area of energy storage, while facilitating deployment of additional battery storage sites in New York City.” Since our first closing with NYGB, we've made significant strides: Our initial Bronx battery site is fully operational and we're on track with the buildout of our next sites to reach commercial operation this year. Having the support of a dedicated public fund like NY Green Bank has been critical in our ability to execute and grow. Together, we're making the City’s grid more resilient, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and paving the way for a greener future in New York. #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #BatteryStorage #NYGreenBank #RenewableEnergy #RenewableEnergyFinance #CleanEnergyFunding #SustainableFinance https://lnkd.in/emUk3Wdt

Creating distributed clean energy solutions for the urban grid
About us
NineDot Energy creates innovative energy solutions that make the urban grid cleaner, more equitable, more resilient and less costly. Our current development focus is on building and operating battery storage sites in the New York City metropolitan area, including Westchester and Long Island. We are working to enable vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capabilities at our projects as well. The NineDot Energy name derives from the classic mathematical puzzle for sparking out-of-the-box solutions. Our “outside the box” creativity combines business model innovation and community-centered solutions to catalyze clean energy projects in high-value parts of the electric utility grid. Based at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering Urban Future Lab in Brooklyn, New York. We have received financial support from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the New York State Energy Research and Development Agency (NYSERDA) and the Carlyle investment group, among others.

At NineDot Energy (and in the clean energy space more broadly!) partnerships are key to successful projects and community impact. One of our proudest collaborations is with the Bronx Charter School for Better Learning, so it was fitting for Adam Cohen, NineDot CTO and cofounder, and Shubert Jacobs, Executive Director of BBL, to share the stage with Sara B. Chandler of Elemental Excelerator at the Urban Future Lab Urban Future Forum, supported by the Wells Fargo Innovation Incubator (IN2). Adam and Shubert highlighted the benefits of our collaboration and shared mission of creating a clean energy future for the next generation. During our collaboration, NineDot employees engaged with students, sharing their knowledge and working together on a mural for our first Bronx battery storage site. They also gave a well-deserved shoutout to Mac Anderson-Cooper and Karlene Buckle for their leadership supporting the students and especially this wonderful mural project. #CommunityEngagement #NineDotEnergy #CleanEnergy #ClimateSolutions #CommunityImpact #Sustainability

Thank you to New York Governor Hochul, the New York Public Service Commission, NYSERDA, and all involved for advancing New York's sustainability leadership! The Energy Storage Roadmap will boost retail (community-scale) battery storage across the state and drive a greener future for all New Yorkers. #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #NewYork #BatteryStorage
Today, the NYS Public Service Commission approved our Energy Storage Roadmap which will allow NYSERDA to expand programs & implement key strategies to deploy storage safely & effectively to reach the expanded goal of 6 GW by 2030, which will cover at least 20% of the state's peak electricity load. This Roadmap aims to create energy storage programs to cost-effectively unlock renewable energy growth, improve grid reliability, enhance customer resilience, and improve public health by reducing exposure to harmful pollutants. Energy storage is essential as New York works to decarbonize our electric grid, manage increased energy loads, and optimize the integration and use of clean, renewable energy. New York is taking significant strides in ensuring a resilient energy future!

If you're passionate about creating a sustainable future, New York City is where your vision can come to life. NYC's regulatory environment is incredibly supportive of green technology. Policies like Local Law 97 have ensured a welcoming space for sustainable innovations, allowing us to grow rapidly and expand our portfolio across the city. As Adam Cohen, our CTO and co-founder, put it: "New York has created a framework that allows us to rethink energy from the ground up." At NineDot Energy, our partnership with the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) has been instrumental in our growth and success. NYCEDC's support has provided us with access to essential resources, from investment and regulatory guidance to strategic connections within the tech community. With NYCEDC's backing, we've been able to scale rapidly, implement groundbreaking projects, and contribute to New York City's sustainability goals. This collaboration continues to drive our efforts in building a resilient and sustainable energy infrastructure for the future. #ClimateTech #Sustainability #Innovation #NineDotEnergy #NYCEDC #Sustainability #EnergyStorage #BESS Produced for NYCEDC by BBC StoryWorks: https://lnkd.in/efWG-bSY
Oh hey, that office looks familiar! We're thrilled to see Adam Cohen, CTO and Co-founder of NineDot Energy, one of our portfolio members, featured on BBC StoryWorks in partnership with New York City Economic Development Corporation. This article zeroes into why a location in a city that matches entrepreneurs' ideas with innovative ways of accelerating #business growth is essential. “We didn't start in New York City; we moved here because of the amazing #policy frameworks and the ability to scale a business (here),” stated Cohen. ”We had one desk starting that summer and an idea of how to do things a little bit differently,“ Cohen said. ”Now we have north of 40 employees, and our headquarters are still in #Brooklyn, at (NYU Tandon School of Engineering's) Urban Future Lab.” Content produced for NYCEDC by BBC StoryWorks.

We love to host visitors at our Bronx battery project, from community members to investors, to educate and inspire others about the importance of clean energy. A special thanks to Manulife Investment Management for supporting NineDot's vision and growth. Your partnership is helping us create a sustainable future. #BatteryStorage #EnergyInnovation #Sustainability #NineDot #EnergyStorage
There is really nothing better than getting out of the office and doing an asset tour. It was so energizing to meet with NineDot Energy recently here in New York. We are partnering with this leading provider of community-scale battery storage systems to deliver innovative solutions for urban clean energy—working to accelerate a sustainable future for the planet we all share. Just one example of how we rely on our long history of responsible stewardship of our clients’ capital to partner for progress toward their financial and impact goals. Oh and why are they called NineDot? The nine dot is a mathematical puzzle whose task is to connect nine squarely arranged points by four (or fewer) straight lines without lifting your pen. The activity evokes creativity and literally requires thinking outside of the box in order to solve it. Great company name! https://lnkd.in/ecv2SQFN #partnerforprogress #manulifeinvestmentmanagement #infrastructure #sneakersnotheels
