Scale Microgrids
Company Overview
Scale Microgrids
Ridgewood, NJ, United States
2016
Approximately 100 employees (source: builtinnyc.com).
What They Do
Scale Microgrids specializes in distributed energy systems, particularly microgrids that integrate fuel cells, solar, and storage to deliver cheaper, cleaner, and more resilient power independent of the utility grid (source: cbinsights.com). The company has evolved from a developer of on-site energy systems into a vertically integrated distributed energy firm that designs, builds, finances, and operates microgrids, focusing on resilience and cost savings for commercial and industrial customers (source: scalemicrogrids.com). Its core products and services encompass designing, constructing, financing, and operating on-site energy solutions such as combined heat and power (CHP) fuel cell systems paired with thermal loops, community solar projects, and custom microgrids for energy consumers ranging from grocery stores to industrial facilities (source: scalemicrogrids.com). Target markets include commercial real estate, manufacturing, retail like grocery chains, and institutions seeking demand response programs and energy efficiency (source: scalemicrogrids.com).
Projects & Track Record
A notable completed project includes the acquisition and development of a 9.6-megawatt CHP fuel cell system in Bridgeport, Connecticut, paired with a thermal loop, acquired pre-construction from NuPower in Easton, Connecticut, with financing from Investec, MUFG debt, and Foss & Co tax equity (source: cbinsights.com). Scale also acquired over 100 megawatts of community solar projects, enhancing its solar portfolio, though specific names and completion years are not detailed beyond the acquisition announcement (source: scalemicrogrids.com). Ongoing efforts center on delivering reliable electricity and clean heat from HyAxiom fuel cells at the Bridgeport site, announced in March 2025 (source: cbinsights.com). Key partnerships involve developers like NuPower, investors such as Gutami, financiers Investec, MUFG, Foss & Co, and equity backer Warburg Pincus (source: cbinsights.com).
Recent Developments
In the last two years through early 2026, Scale Microgrids secured debt financing for the 9.6 MW Bridgeport, Connecticut CHP fuel cell project on March 18, 2025, marking a major contract win for reliable electricity and clean heat delivery (source: cbinsights.com). The company announced an equity commitment of up to $300 million from Warburg Pincus to fuel growth in distributed energy (source: scalemicrogrids.com). It also acquired over 100 MW of community solar projects from Gutami, enhancing its solar portfolio (source: scalemicrogrids.com).
Working There
Scale Microgrids offers hybrid roles across departments like engineering, finance, project development, operations, and sales, with recent job postings available in at least two hybrid locations tied to its New York and other regional offices (source: builtinnyc.com). Hiring occurs from physical offices including the Ridgewood, New Jersey headquarters and regional sites in New York, Denver, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, where employees work onsite with no specified typical time requirement (source: scalemicrogrids.com). Company culture emphasizes close collaboration with energy experts to meet customer goals in cost, resilience, and sustainability, positioning microgrids as critical for humanity's energy future (source: scalemicrogrids.com).
