Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to interview Scott Hackel and Dr. Xiaohui “Joe” Zhou from Slipstream, a non-profit organization with a mission to accelerate climate solutions for everyone. During our conversation, I asked Scott and Joe about Slipstream and their vision for tackling vexing challenges including accelerating decarbonization and growing the stock of Grid-interactive Efficient Buildings (GEBs).
We also explored the motivations behind Slipstream’s decision to partner with ACE IoT Solutions and deploy Eclipse VOLTTRON at their building in Madison, WI. Our conversation closed with a discussion of how Slipstream’s evaluation of technologies including VOLTTRON, Kinetic Buildings Synapse, and Prescriptive Data Nantum OS fits into the organization’s broader vision for advancing its mission.
