One engineer, not an isolated one.
Independent review means my judgement is the product — and judgement that nobody else ever tests is worth less than it looks. So here is the network around the work: the organizations I teach with, and the places the engineering gets published where an industry audience can push back on it. Every link goes to the source, so you can check the relationship instead of taking my word for it.
Teaching affiliations
These are teaching relationships, not employment: my employer is HyperStrong, where I am Director of Product Engineering. Teaching keeps the explanations honest — an engineer in a live session will not accept a hand-wave, which is the fastest way to find out that an explanation you have used for years has a hole in it.
- ElectroMentors I teach on the ElectroMentors faculty — training for electrical and computer engineers, and an approved provider of IEEE CEU/PDH certificates.
- The BESS Academy I teach the utility-scale BESS program on The BESS Academy platform.
- INSEAD I work with the INSEAD community.
Where the work gets published
The same engineering, in front of readers who are not my students and owe me no benefit of the doubt.
- Battery Technology Bylined articles on grid-scale storage, written for a trade readership that checks the numbers.
- Energy Central I publish on Energy Central, the community for utility professionals.
- YouTube — @BESS-Guy Explainers and walk-throughs of the same systems, free to watch.
What this page is not: no vendor partnerships
None of the above are supplier relationships, and that distinction matters more on this site than on a training one. The independent advisory earns no commission from any supplier and recommends no brand — if a "partnerships" page quietly implied otherwise, it would undercut the one thing the review work is selling. Everything listed here is teaching or publishing.
If you are checking whether the engineering judgement you would be buying is tied to somebody's product line, this page is where to look, and the answer is no.
