The San Luis Obispo Climate Coalition in California is working with Electriq Power to provide residents with affordable, resilient and sustainable energy.
Electriq Power has signed an agreement with the San Luis Obispo Climate Coalition (SLOCC) to provide sustainable and resilient energy to residents in the Californian city.
Electriq provides intelligent energy storage and management systems to homes and small businesses and will deliver the energy through fully financed residential solar-plus-storage microgrids with no upfront cost.
Through a power purchase agreement, called the PoweredUp Network, all San Luis Obispo County homeowners, regardless of means, will have access to a turnkey, distributed home energy solution, including smart battery storage.
By signing up with PoweredUp Network, residents can address the challenge of rising utility rates and protect their homes from unreliable grid infrastructure, all while helping the SLO community hit its carbon-neutral goal by 2035.
“At the SLO Climate Coalition, we are working toward a vibrant, just, and climate-resilient Central Coast through high-impact regional climate solutions,” said Eric Veium, chair, SLO Climate Coalition.
He added: “In Electriq Power, we have found a partner that shares the mission to provide impactful, equitable solutions – enabling more members of our community to access cleaner, more reliable, and more cost-effective distributed power.”
Electriq’s PoweredUp Network offers turnkey energy solutions that claim to include everything needed for home energy independence – solar panels, batteries, software, project development, financing, installation, and grid services – all with zero upfront costs.
The systems are available to homeowners in select geographic locations, regardless of income or credit history, including low- and moderate-income households.

Electriq Power has a vision to connect organisations, companies, cities and municipalities, and their local homeowners into sustainable community networks (SCNs). Through these collaborations, as well as by providing a comprehensive solution portfolio, Electriq’s PoweredUp Network makes it possible to deliver complete, clean, affordable, and resilient energy to all homeowners.
“We are delighted to have this opportunity to serve the 283,000 residents of San Luis Obispo County by providing all homeowners with the same opportunity to access sustainable and resilient energy, whatever their income,” said Frank Magnotti, CEO of Electriq Power.
He continued: “At Electriq Power, we believe that access to clean, dependable energy should not be limited due to financial constraints. Rather, it should be available to anyone who wants to save money and safeguard their home’s power.”
