I first met Pete Armstrong as he was pitching at the Ecosummit event in Berlin in 2018 and last year. The scale of the impact possible in transforming our heating and water storage systems in our homes blew my mind. I’ve always been so involved in the ‘electrification of everything’, so I’ve watched since with interest. Mixergy were also mentioned in a recent podcast episode with Robert Trezona of IP Group, one of their early (and follow on) investors. So I thought I’d invite Dr Pete Armstrong to join us.About our guestDr Pete Armstrong is CEO and co-founder of Mixergy, an Oxford University spin-out company which has brought to market a unique hot water tank. Pete completed his PhD on intelligent hot water tanks at Oxford Uni with fellow student and co-founder Ren Kang, before going on to win a Technical Innovation award within the 2013 Shell Eco-Marathon electric car competition, and a prize in a Climate KiC venture competition, which was the genesis of Mixergy in 2014. Mixergy has since received investment from IP Group, Oxford Science Innovation, Centrica Innovations and Foresight Williams to grow and develop the business. About MixergyMixergy has developed an intelligent hot water tank, which is unlike others on the market. The Mixergy tank operates on an integrated Internet of Things platform and is designed to selectively heat smaller portions of water. As a fleet, Mixergy aims to offer a Demand Side Response (DSR) service to the National Grid, absorbing excess power load and time shifting demand to help balance the grid. This “Internet of Tanks” vision will help to facilitate the generation and utilisation of more renewables nationwide to support a greener future. The Mixergy tank is also a benefit to consumers, saving up to 40% on hot water bills through sophisticated machine learning.GUEST LINKS Mixergy Website- www.mixergy.co.ukMixergy on Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/mixergy-ltd/Mixergy on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MixergyLtd EPISODE LINKSCleantech Mixergy Raises £3.6M - https://www.businesscloud.co.uk/news/cleantech-mixergy-raises-36mMixergy on Fully Charged - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1Z4JCoPAGcMixergy at Ecosummit 2019 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AL_wDpTVEcChaos: Making a New Science – James Gleick - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos:_Making_a_New_ScienceFollow us online, write a review (please) or subscribeI'm very keen to hear feedback on the podcast and my guests, and to
