More than doubling the life of Li-ion batteries. Enabling longer and sustainable use via first-life and second-life EV batteries repurposed as stationary battery energy storage. Relyion Energy has developed a distributed control architecture backed by physics-based machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) that extends the life of batteries by 20+ years.

This committee examines the technical, economic, regulatory, and legal challenges involved in repurposing high-capacity advanced batteries for second-life use. The committee explores optimal applications for second-life batteries and discusses ways of making second-life use of batteries more practical and economic. The committee also studies regulatory requirements applicable to those second-life applications.

Founded by RMI and New Energy Nexus — Third Derivative is a global climate technology startup accelerator with the mission of building an inclusive ecosystem that rapidly finds, funds, and scales climate tech innovation.Tackling the climate crisis is a once-in-a-generation, trillion-dollar economic opportunity and the world needs an equitable and global climate innovation engine to identify and massively scale new climate technology solutions that will accelerate the clean energy transition. Third Derivative is built to rise to this opportunity.

Cleantech Open runs the largest clean technology accelerator program in the world. Since 2005 has trained over 3,500 entrepreneurs from 1,800 early-stage clean technology startups through its annual business accelerator. A majority of CTO alumni surveyed have survived the merciless technology startup “valley of death” and gone on to raise over $1.5 billion equity, and in recent cohorts, 39% of founder CEOs self-identified as BIPOC and/or women.Relyion Energy Inc. is Regional Winner, Global Semi Finalist and Finalist in CleanTechOpen 2022. In 2022, 91 companies participated in the 12-week accelerator program and submitted eight ‘Essential Business Deliverables’ that were reviewed by more than 100 judges. The graduating startups then pitched live to the judges during the various pitch competitions.
