6 terms

grid-edge technical

"Amp X - a GridAI subsidiary and AI-driven grid-edge platform - brings"

Grid-edge describes the collection of devices and services located where homes and businesses connect to the power system — for example rooftop solar, batteries, electric vehicle chargers, smart meters and local energy controls. It matters to investors because these technologies change how electricity is bought, sold and managed, creating new revenue streams, shifting utility spending and affecting resilience; think of it as adding backyard workshops that let neighborhoods produce, store or manage power instead of relying only on a distant factory.

BESS technical

"renewable energy and BESS projects, and as Chief Customer Officer"

BESS stands for Battery Energy Storage System, a technology that stores electricity for later use. Think of it as a large rechargeable battery that can hold excess power generated during times of low demand and release it when usage is high, helping balance supply and demand. This is important for investors because it supports the stability of energy grids, enables the integration of renewable sources, and can create new opportunities for profitability in the energy market.

long-duration BESS technical

"commercial functions including the sales... for the long-duration BESS manufacturer"

A long-duration BESS is a large battery energy storage system designed to store and discharge electricity for many hours (often eight hours or more), acting like a grid-scale rechargeable battery. It matters to investors because it enables shifting cheap or renewable power to times of higher demand, provides steady backup for the grid, and creates multiple revenue streams (energy sales, capacity payments, and reliability services), making it a key asset as power systems move away from fossil-fuel peaker plants.

hyperscale technical

"With hyperscale AI campuses emerging as the defining infrastructure challenge"

Hyperscale describes the ability of a system or operation to grow rapidly and handle extremely large amounts of work or data. It’s like a massive factory that can quickly expand its production capacity to meet soaring demand. For investors, hyperscale indicates a business’s potential to scale efficiently, often leading to increased growth and profitability.

AI data centers technical

"Analysts project that the AI-data-center market will surpass"

AI data centers are specialized facilities built to store massive datasets and run powerful processors that train and operate artificial intelligence models — think of them as factories designed specifically for building and running AI. They matter to investors because they require large, ongoing capital and energy investments while driving revenue for cloud and chip providers; changes in demand, costs, or regulation can materially affect returns and company valuation.

dynamic load balancing technical

"integrating AI-driven forecasting, automated bidding, and dynamic load balancing"

A system that distributes computing work across multiple servers or resources in real time so no single machine becomes overloaded, like a traffic cop routing cars to keep flows moving smoothly. For investors, it matters because it helps ensure digital services — trading platforms, payment systems, regulatory reporting or customer-facing apps — stay fast, reliable and cost-efficient; failures or slowdowns can harm revenue, user trust and regulatory compliance.

BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / December 4, 2025 / GridAI Technologies Corp (NASDAQ:GRDX) ("GridAI" or the "Company") today announced the appointment of Marshall Chapin as Chief Executive Officer of its energy-orchestration operating subsidiary developing next-generation grid and power-management software for hyperscale artificial-intelligence (AI) data-center campuses.

Chapin, who since March of 2025 has served as Chief Commercial Officer and Interim CEO of Amp X - a GridAI subsidiary and AI-driven grid-edge platform - brings over three decades of leadership experience across the energy-transition, grid-optimization, and distributed-energy sectors. His appointment underscores GridAI's commitment to deploying a world-class orchestration engine capable of managing the immense power and flexibility demands of the global AI data-center buildout.

"Marshall's proven ability to commercialize complex energy-software platforms and scale global go-to-market operations makes him the ideal leader for GridAI at this pivotal moment," said Jason Sawyer, Chief Executive Officer of parent, GridAI Technologies Corp. "With hyperscale AI campuses emerging as the defining infrastructure challenge of this decade, our power orchestration capabilities will be critical in helping hyperscalers deploy energy assets rapidly, profitably, and with enhanced reliability and resilience."

A Proven Record of Growth and Orchestration Leadership
Chapin began his career at the forefront of the cleantech revolution, joining EnerNOC as Head of Marketing nine months before its NASDAQ IPO in 2007. During his eight-year tenure, he led the company's largest sales organizations - including the New England, PJM, and Ontario teams - and launched its expansion into the UK market. He later directed all global sales-support functions, including Sales Operations, Solutions Engineering, and Utility Sales, helping grow EnerNOC from $26 million to $270 million in annual revenue before its acquisition by Enel.

He subsequently served as Chief Revenue Officer at SYSO Technologies, a market operator optimizing utility-scale renewable energy and BESS projects, and as Chief Customer Officer at Eos Energy Enterprises (NASDAQ: EOSE) where he led all commercial functions including the sales, commercial operations, projects, and services divisions for the long-duration BESS manufacturer globally.

Most recently at Amp X, Chapin has overseen commercialization of the company's AI-driven grid-edge platform for its customers in the U.S. and Australia, while shaping the broader GridAI strategy for orchestrating power flows across traditional generation, renewables, storage, and backup generation assets.

Positioned for an Unprecedented Market Opportunity
The appointment comes as AI infrastructure investment accelerates globally. Analysts project that the AI-data-center market will surpass $1 trillion by 2030, driving historic demand for intelligent power orchestration solutions. Every new hyperscale campus - consuming hundreds of megawatts - requires advanced systems capable of optimizing dispatch across batteries, renewables, and flexible generation. GridAI's software platform is purpose-built to meet that challenge, integrating AI-driven forecasting, automated bidding, and dynamic load balancing to deliver the reliability, efficiency, and resiliency required by next-generation data infrastructure.

"AI data centers are reshaping the grid as profoundly as the internet transformed communications," said Chapin. "GridAI is uniquely positioned to help hyperscalers, utilities, and energy-asset owners orchestrate the massive amount of flexible power required for this transformation. I'm excited to build on this vision and lead GridAI through this extraordinary phase of growth."

Chapin has an MBA from Cornell University, and a BA from Kenyon College where he was an NCAA All-American and member of Kenyon's athletics Hall of Fame. He lives with his wife and two children in Norwell, MA.
