Distributed battery network for grid modernization and resilience
Base Power deploys distributed energy storage across the US grid. The stack reveals a hardware-first manufacturing operation (Altium Designer, KiCab, SolidWorks, CATIA for circuit and mechanical design) paired with enterprise backend (SAP, NetSuite, Odoo) and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure). The hiring mix is heavily skewed toward engineering and manufacturing roles, while active projects focus on assembly automation, permitting workflows, and delivery logistics—indicating they're scaling production and field deployment faster than operational backend capacity, with ongoing friction in inventory accuracy, fulfillment, and compliance.
