A third generation developer & seasoned reliability asset management engineer with 20 years infrastructure development & world class security project experience
Powerblocks is a first-of-a-kind battery energy storage system. Using innovative technology to drastically reduce the impact of clean energy storage on both urban and rural/remote communities.
By making batteries safe enough and flexible enough that they can fit almost anywhere in our places and spaces, Powerblocks makes energy storage virtually invisible by housing the unique system in structurally strong forms such as outdoor walls, chairs, benches and more. Powerblocks means dual-function use of valuable land space, adding aesthetically pleasing amenity and function to communities.
Powerblocks’ virtually invisible energy storage systems allow communities to switch to 100% clean energy without compromising on aesthetics, safety or amenity. Perfect for councils and developers looking to maximise use of space while benefitting from clean energy storage.
The Powerblocks safety systems include cell level safety monitoring, fault detection and notification, and fire resistant/rated housing materials, creating a uniquely safe operating environment for Lithium based cells - and with compatibility for future battery chemistries.
I'm a third generation developer and seasoned reliability asset management engineer, with over 20 years of experience working in infrastructure development and world class security projects. Including estate infrastructure, open spaces, parks, and defence/security projects for major local and global players such as GHD, Mirvac, Landcom, Australian Government Department of Defence and the Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority (Sydney’s famous Opera House and The Rocks precinct).
My wide ranging experience has given me a unique understanding of what communities of all kinds need to thrive and grow, and the opportunities for flexible energy storage in our built and open environments.
That passion for better built environments and communities has driven Powerblocks, and our goal of clean energy storage that adds amenity and multi-functional use, whilst providing the world-leading safety and ease of installation and maintenance that communities expect from developers and public bodies.
