The 60 Second Podcast
Dan Fletcher: Founder of dcbel
Dan Fletcher is helping redesign how we power our homes and vehicles—by rethinking one of the most overlooked parts of clean energy: power conversion. In this rapid-fire episode, Dan shares how his team at dcbel is eliminating energy waste and unlocking a smarter, more efficient way to electrify everyday life.
Want to power the future? Start by converting less.
Matt McCoy (00:00):
What is one technology your team is working on that will disrupt the industry?
Dan Fletcher (00:05):
OK, thanks, Lauren. So all of the new energy devices, and as we electrify our lives at home—solar panels, storage, electric vehicles—they're all DC devices.
And we feel that one of the underappreciated parts of the solution is the power conversion that you need to do—and to avoid doing double power conversion.
Dan Fletcher (00:29):
So we've come up with a totally different architecture and patented that. It results in fewer energy conversions, much better overall efficiency, and—importantly—fewer devices in the home to activate that distributed energy site.
