Pilot timeline

When each pilot environment opens, and when to apply

We are proving five environments in sequence. Each one has a window when we are reading applications, a period of site control and design, a build, and a target for first dispatch. Find your environment below and apply before the date in the "apply by" line.

These are planning targets, not commitments. No block is energised yet and no pilot site is named. Every window moves with the host lease, the utility interconnection and the capital gate behind it — applying early is worth more than a date on this page.

01 · Applications read

We screen every site that comes in and write back either way.

02 · Site control and design

Lease, landlord consent, utility conversation and the interconnection application.

03 · Build and commission

Pad, blocks, pedestals, metering and the first dispatch tests.

04 · Operating

Metered dispatch, host share from year three, and the guarantee running.

Environment 01 · Independent operator

Private marina — independently owned

Apply by

31 March 2027

A single-owner harbour with tired shore power and no capital budget: lease, block on the pad, bidirectional pedestals and the first enrolled vessels.

First environment in the queue. Lease and interconnection position come before anything is ordered.

What it proves: The whole model end to end — metered dispatch, host share and owner settlement in the environment most of the market sits in.

Environment 02 · Town, port authority, harbour commission

Municipal or authority-owned harbour

Apply by

30 June 2027

The same block under a public-private agreement, with the lease and exit doctrine adapted to a public landlord.

Public landlords need council or commission time; we start the paperwork early and expect a longer approval run.

What it proves: The PPP template and the path to state and federal awards, so the second public site is an application rather than a campaign.

Environment 03 · Yard and storage operator

Boatyard and winter storage estate

Apply by

30 September 2027

A yard with heavy off-season load and stored boats, where charging and demand relief matter more than slip count.

Built around the off-season, so construction lands between haul-out and launch rather than across a working summer.

What it proves: The block earns year-round, not just in season — and storage customers are a fleet without a dock.

Environment 04 · Government agency

Federal waterfront — coast guard or military installation

Apply by

31 December 2027

The bundled product sold as one system: orchestration layer, modular blocks and the solar scope under one guarantee.

Runs on the government calendar: registration, a contracting route and an assessment usually come before any build.

What it proves: The government channel and the exclusive bundled sale, including resilience and prequalification.

Environment 05 · Multi-site park operator

RV park and campground estate

Apply by

31 March 2028

The same modular setup inland, pedestals at the pads and a block behind one interconnection.

Same drawings and lease inland. Opens once the first marina block has run a full season.

What it proves: The model is not marina-specific — the second vertical runs on the identical drawings and lease.

Not sure which one you are?

Apply anyway. Tell us the site, the power and your own timing, and we will place you in the right environment — or tell you plainly that the fit is not there. Applying costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
