Quidnet Energy Inc. is a Houston-based company that specializes in developing grid-scale energy storage systems. Founded in 2013, the company utilizes a unique hydroelectric energy storage technology that involves pumping water under pressure into subsurface geological reservoirs. This stored water can then be released to drive turbines and generate electricity when renewable energy sources are unavailable. By leveraging established well-drilling and construction techniques, Quidnet Energy aims to enhance the reliability of the carbon-free electric grid. In addition to its headquarters in Houston, the company has offices in San Francisco and Saratoga Springs, New York.
