Michael Baker is the Co-Founder and CEO of Tyba, which builds the software that models and operates energy storage assets so developers, owners, and operators can optimize performance in increasingly complex power markets. Emily spoke with Michael about his path from growing up across several continents, where he first saw how energy shapes opportunity, to discovering storage and the gaps in the industry’s tools that ultimately led him to start Tyba. Since then, the company has grown from early prototypes to working with customers ranging from global energy companies to leading solar-plus-storage developers, and is now on track to manage two gigawatts of customer assets by the end of the year.
