CleanSpark’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Zachary Bradford said, “We are excited and motivated to join Think Microgrid, a group that acts as an educational resource for policy makers and regulators on critical issues pertaining to energy generation, storage, distribution and management. The organization’s stated goal is to help facilitate improvements to the domestic power grids, incorporation of renewables and distributed energy, bring cost savings to customers and stakeholders and increase the visibility of clean energy initiatives worldwide.”
The Company also executed an updated Distribution Agreement with Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. that extends and expands the relationship between the two companies through the end of 2023. As part of the new agreement, Pioneer Power has been granted expanded rights to utilize CleanSpark’s proprietary software products, including mPulse and GridFabric’s OpenADR solutions.

CleanSpark’s Chief Revenue Officer, Amer Tadayon, stated, “The expanded partnership allows us to combine mPulse and GridFabric within multiple EV integrations for Pioneer Power.

About Think Microgrid
The microgrid industry is at an inflection point. Proven technologies are being deployed in response to critical needs, such as resiliency and reliability in the face of wildfires. Most states, however, have not determined how microgrids will be incorporated into the physical grid and the market design. Think Microgrid will do more than address specific projects, utility proposals or critical situations. The organization will strive to cultivate new policy opportunities by engaging with government change makers even before they begin to consider action on microgrids.
