\t\t\tThe small batteries helping NYC businesses cut electric bills<\/p>\n

July 30, 2026 \u2022 Miscellany<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A new kind of appliance is showing up behind the counters, in the basements and beneath the worktables of restaurants, movie theaters, grocery stores and other businesses across NYC.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re roughly the size of a small toaster oven, each unit plugs into a standard outlet and starts cutting electric bills automatically.<\/p>\n

And they\u2019re free.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n

For many NYC businesses, the cost of electricity depends not only on how much power they use, but when they use it.<\/p>\n

David Energy\u2019s batteries charge when electricity is less expensive, then provide power during the costliest parts of the day. There is no software for the business to manage and no change to its normal operations.<\/p>\n

David Energy installs, owns and maintains the batteries at no cost \u2013 and guarantees a lower electric bill than it would pay the utility.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

350+ NYC businesses are already using them, including Biscuits and Bath, Fonda, Black Seed Bagels and Two Hands.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a lot of vendors, but it\u2019s hard to find ones who actually improve our bottom line. David Energy is one of the few that does. What they offer is something special.\u201d \u2013 Seth, Managing Director, Biscuits and Bath<\/p>\n

David Energy is currently installing free batteries at eligible NYC businesses.<\/p>\n
