As you can see, something’s different.
We’ve redesigned the platform. It’s not just a visual refresh. It reflects how much this publication has changed over the past year — and honestly, how much the conversation around distributed energy has changed too.
When we started, Energy Changemakers was a niche corner of the internet for people who already knew what a microgrid was. That audience has grown — and so has interest in the topics we cover. Onsite power, virtual power plants, demand flexibility, community energy, vehicle-to-grid — all are becoming increasingly central to how the grid actually works.
The new Energy Changemakers is designed to match that reality. Cleaner navigation, better organization, easier to find what you’re looking for. Nothing revolutionary — just less friction between you and the reporting. Whether you’re reading the magazine, catching up on the podcast, or diving into the premium community, the experience should feel more intuitive.
Biggest changes
The more meaningful change is what the redesign makes possible:
- More original stories
- More expert voices
- More ways to connect the people actually building this stuf
That includes more in-depth coverage of the policy and regulatory shifts reshaping distributed energy — the kind of context that helps you not just follow the news, but actually use it.

To keep track of the news we post, we continue to offer our free weekly newsletter. But if you want quicker updates, early access to podcasts, exclusive content and the ability to comment, join our new Substack.
We built Energy Changemakers to help make sense of the transition to a more decentralized, resilient grid — and to track the opportunities, people and ideas driving that change. The technology is advancing fast. The policy landscape keeps shifting. And the business models are still being written. There’s no shortage of ground to cover. That mission hasn’t changed. We just have a better space to pursue it now.
Take a look around. More coming soon.
