Company Description: With facilities in California and Oregon, ClearEdge Power is a privately held, technology company leading the way for smarter, cleaner on-site energy systems focused on commercial, institutional and residential buildings. The company designs, manufactures and markets the ClearEdge5 system, a unique, proven fuel cell appliance that cleanly converts natural gas to electricity and heat, offering a significant financial savings as well as a greatly reduced impact on the global environment.

Business Impact:  “Generating awareness for a new clean energy solution like fuel cell technology can be a daunting task. Partnering with CleanTECH San Diego has been a key element in helping us achieve awareness and adoption.  One of our most important accomplishments together involved the support and guidance of CleanTECH San Diego, where they provided access to the City of San Diego and which led to the inclusion of fuel cell technology in its new Clean Generation Program.  In addition, CleanTECH San Diego co-hosted a private reception with the ClearEdge Power leadership team and 25 regional customers and influential stakeholders. This intimate setting served as an important building block in the development of several sizable business opportunities in our target market.  Accelerated access to decision makers and a strong voice in advocating policy makes our membership the envy of other markets that don’t have a dedicated organization like CleanTECH San Diego to help penetrate new markets.”
