Community Partnerships TEPRI collaborates with local jurisdictions and community organizations to test and scale energy solutions for underserved communities, presenting opportunities for partners to co-design and pilot solar, resilience, and demand-side management projects with grant-ready proposals.

Resilience Funding TEPRI's recent securing of funding to develop resiliency hubs signals a demand for funded, deployable energy resilience programs; vendors can offer turnkey project delivery, integration with resilience hubs, and post-implementation evaluation services to align with grant requirements.

Solar Innovation Joint work with TXSES and Frontier Energy on solar innovation highlights TEPRI's interest in community-focused solar deployments; opportunities exist for solar providers, energy storage, and analytics partners to collaborate on pilot programs and outcomes reporting.

VPP Deployment TEPRI's test of Virtual Power Plant technology in Sunnyside creates a field-ready use case for distributed energy resource platforms; sellers of VPP software, DER integration, and enabling infrastructure can pursue co-development and scalable pilots within TEPRI's network.

Impact Analytics As a research-driven nonprofit, TEPRI seeks evidence-based tools and services to measure program effectiveness and policy impact; this creates demand for data analytics, evaluation, and grant-management support from vendors with nonprofit and public-sector experience.
