Why It Matters to Hosts
Institutional-grade infrastructure. Managed for you.
OpenGrid partners with commercial property owners and operating tenants to deploy behind-the-meter energy storage and EV charging at grocery-anchored and essential retail sites. Our approach is structured so hosts receive value without assuming system performance or market risk.
Strategic benefits for long-term ownership
Zero Capital Expenditure
Fully funded by OpenGrid.
Operational Priority
No impact on site traffic or tenant utilities.
Asset Appreciation
Modernized infrastructure that supports LEED v5 and ESG goals.
Clear roles and risk allocation
No host obligation for performance, markets, or optimization. OpenGrid assumes system performance responsibility.
We make it easy for internal stakeholders to approve:
OpenGrid handles:
Equipment ownership
Installation and commissioning
Monitoring, maintenance, and insurance
System performance and operational responsibility
Property owners and operating tenants handle:
Providing space access
One-time coordination during installation
Normal site operations
No interference with your day-to-day
OpenGrid’s installations are designed to integrate seamlessly with existing operations:
Installed behind the meter, at the main electrical panel
Compatible with essential systems (refrigeration, lighting, POS)
Limited on-site activity scheduled around business hours
Works with landlords and operating tenants
Whether you own the building, operate the business, or both, OpenGrid’s approach is designed to fit your governance and operational structure.
We work with:
Owners of single sites
Multi-site portfolio landlords
Grocery chains and retail operators
Property managers
Planning for tomorrow — without exposure today
This makes internal approvals smoother: legal, finance, and facilities can see clear boundaries.
