E122: Better cooking (and grids) with Copper

This week on Everybody in the Pool, another sexy gadget that doubles as a grid asset! We take a field trip to the Berkeley headquarters of Copper, which is reimagining the humble stove as a powerful tool for decarbonization. Their flagship product, Charlie, is a 30-inch induction range with a built-in battery that allows for plug-and-play installation, precise cooking, and the potential to support grid stability.

• How a battery in a stove can reduce the need for electrical infrastructure upgrades
• The magic of induction cooking - safety, precision, and efficiency
• Incentive programs making electrification more accessible
• The potential for appliances to become grid interactive assets
• Copper’s vision for scaling electrification across housing
• Bonus: their in-house chef loves it, too.
