About
Electric Era is a clean energy company founded by former SpaceX engineers that designs and manufactures AI-driven EV fast charging infrastructure. Its flagship product, the PowerNode, integrates a 120 kW/60 kWh battery storage pack with smart power management software to deliver high-speed EV charging at locations that lack sufficient grid capacity for direct-connection fast chargers. By buffering energy in onsite battery storage, PowerNode stations can supply up to 200 kW of charging power across four fast charging stalls while drawing only 120 kW from the grid — compared to the 600 kW that direct-connection systems would require.
