Home energy storage is becoming more and more popular thanks to Haven Energy, a climate tech startup headed by Philip Krim, Jeff Chapin, and founder and CEO Vinnie Campo. It matches homeowners with electricians to handle the installation and walks them through the process of choosing, bidding, and financing a house battery system.

After installation, the business helps homes link their batteries into a collective virtual power plant, which lowers electricity bills and allows users to profit from using grid services.
