We’re making power fast, reliable, affordable, and clean.

OUR vision, our story

From the lab to the grid.

We started Teragen Energy because electricity is essential. AI data centers, electric vehicles, our homes - modern society requires more power, whether for compute, charging, cooling, and more. We're on a mission to meet this demand with faster, cleaner, cheaper power that's available no matter what.

Founded on breakthroughs from Berkeley Lab, the US Department of Energy, and ARPA-E, Teragen Energy is developing novel power generation and energy storage solutions that will revolutionize how we power our world. To meet this goal, our founding team blends expertise in electrochemistry, energy technology scale-up, manufacturing, project development, and electricity markets.
