trutility Launches Grid Infrastructure Platform Backed by Distributed Sun

Aug 19, 2026
trutility has launched as a grid infrastructure platform for battery storage, community solar, distributed generation, and microgrids, backed by Distributed Sun assets and capital investment.

trutility launched as a grid infrastructure developer, owner, and operator for battery storage, community solar, distributed generation, and microgrids, announced in a press release.

The platform is backed by Distributed Sun, which contributed a front of meter development portfolio and intellectual property through its trucurrent subsidiary. The company said the platform is supported by more than $1 billion in capital investment.

trutility owns the contributed assets, customer relationships, and operating system. Its portfolio includes battery storage at MW to GWh scale, community solar projects across multiple states, operating microgrids, 24 front of meter battery storage sites, and distributed portfolios across 14 utility rate territories.

The company said its system uses autonomous agents to combine site, policy, underwriting, cost, calendar, and return data. Distributed Sun also cited a recently energized EV fleet charging microgrid built through a PG&E Flex Connect partnership, completed four months after groundbreaking.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
