GridBeyond Joins TAPPI to Support Wood, Pulp & Paper Businesses

GridBeyond, the global leader in intelligent energy technology for C&I and Distributed Energy Resource Management (DERM), has joined TAPPI as a Sustaining Corporate Member.

TAPPI is the leading association for the worldwide pulp, paper, tissue, packaging and converting industries. GridBeyond supports large energy users, including wood, pulp and paper businesses, in improving their bottom line through new revenue streams, savings and operational efficiencies.

GridBeyond harnesses the power of AI technology to connect large energy consumers and their assets; including on-site demand, energy storage, generation and EV charging, to the award-winning Point platform. The platform enables participation in energy services including demand response, smart tariffs, energy trading and peak cost avoidance, and provides access to a range of monitoring tools to enhance business resilience and operational integrity.

Wayne Muncaster, Vice-President for North America, commented:

“Assets used by wood, pulp and paper businesses are typically highly flexible in their energy consumption, and therefore perfectly positioned to participate in energy services. By connecting debarkers, chippers, grinders, refiners, paper machines, on-site generation and storage, to our intelligent energy technology platform, businesses can access new revenue streams, cheaper power and increase their operational resilience. All without any impact on production or capital expenditure budget.”

Larry Montague, TAPPI President & CEO, commented:

“TAPPI’s Sustaining Members represent a wide range of exceptional companies, both from within and without our diversified industries.

“We welcome them as a valued addition to the TAPPI family of Sustaining Members.”
