Software-enabled energy infrastructure

Cloud software for distributed energy project development

ClearSky combines proprietary site-development software with BESS, EV charging, microgrid, and micro data center deployment expertise to evaluate, package, finance, and manage distributed energy assets.

The platform converts raw site data into project-ready site maps, one-line diagrams, interconnection package support, permit-ready exports, and financial analysis — and has already been used to support submitted ComEd BESS site packages.

Cloud platform across the full workflow

A cloud platform for the full development lifecycle

OMEGA is the AI operating platform ClearSky Energy Solutions built for distributed energy development. It supports site mapping, one-line diagram development, permit package exports, interconnection package support, project economics, and document tracking — in one cloud tool. It's the same platform that produced ClearSky's submitted ComEd BESS site packages.

An active portfolio across Illinois and PJM

ClearSky develops and manages a growing portfolio of distributed energy assets — battery storage, EV charging, microgrids, and micro data centers — spread across wholesale market participation, grid injection, data-center offtake, and behind-the-meter value. Each site is evaluated, packaged, and monetized through the OMEGA platform.

480 kW charging, SDVPP & PJM frequency regulation

ClearSky's Fulton, Illinois site pairs a battery energy storage system with 480 kW of DC fast charging — delivering high-power charging without triggering a costly utility service upgrade. The same battery is enrolled in ComEd's Smart Distributed Virtual Power Plant program and injects into PJM's frequency regulation market, stacking three revenue layers on a single asset.

Where ClearSky is headed

Microgrids & micro data centers powered by energy arbitrage

ClearSky's core thesis: co-locate battery storage with distributed compute to build self-contained microgrids that buy energy when it's cheap, serve compute continuously, and sell capacity and regulation back to the grid when it's valuable. Energy arbitrage funds the compute; the compute anchors the load; the grid services stack on top. It's a battery-first model that doesn't depend on solar and turns every site into a dual-purpose energy node and edge data center.

Development across every asset class

Behind every project is the same end-to-end capability: ClearSky evaluates and develops BESS, EV charging, microgrid, and micro data center opportunities — determining whether a site is viable, financeable, permittable, and capable of generating grid or behind-the-meter value.
