Skip Technology, Inc. Partners With Continuous Solutions to Deliver Reliable Clean Electricity to Remote and Agricultural Communities

Skip Tech Named Founding Member of the Power and Energy Center of the Pacific Northwest

PORTLAND, Ore.--()--Skip Technology, Inc. (Skip Tech), an R&D lab designing the most sustainable, large-scale energy storage system as an alternative to lithium batteries, and Continuous Solutions, a leader in clean energy innovation, have announced a partnership to give remote communities access to uninterruptible power.

The Skip Tech energy storage system, based on hydrogen and bromine, is suited to the microgrid environments of remote and rural communities that rely on clean stored energy when the sun, wind or waves are not generating electricity. Continuous Solutions' technologies improve energy integration and accelerate the transition to renewable energy through cutting edge motor, controller and inverter innovations.

This business and technology partnership follows the recent announcement of the new Power and Energy Center of the Pacific Northwest (PEC-PNW), dedicated to advancing clean energy, power distribution, energy conversion, and energy storage technologies (link to press release here).

“Collaborating with Continuous Solutions and PEC-PNW, we aim to solve the technical challenges encountered in remote environments where power is intermittent, expensive, and dependent on diesel or other fossil fuels,” said Dr. Brennan Gantner, CEO and Co-Founder, Skip Tech.

“Skip Tech’s pioneering work in sustainable energy storage is a perfect complement to our mission at Continuous Solutions. Together, we're creating a nexus of innovation with the PEC-PNW, turning the Pacific Northwest into a leader in clean energy technology," said Dr. Nyah Zarate, CEO of Continuous Solutions and Head of the PEC-PNW.
