EnergyCrew is a practical ideas platform by Matt Wapples, exploring energy, business, technology and culture.

Table of Contents

Curious, Inquisitive, and just a little chaotic.

EnergyCrew is a practical writing platform by Matt Wapples, exploring energy & technology, business & entrepreneurship, and culture & society.

The aim is simple: make complex ideas easier to understand.

That means explaining the hidden systems behind the grid, AI, markets, storytelling, work, music, culture and the way people build meaning. Some pieces are technical. Some are personal. Some start with water towers, grime, heat pumps or a broken spreadsheet. The common thread is curiosity, clarity and useful thinking.

What you’ll find here

• Energy & Technology: practical insights on the grid, AI, DERMS, VPPs, flexibility, markets and hidden infrastructure.

• Business & Entrepreneurship: notes on storytelling, presenting, pitching, commercial thinking and building ideas into reality.

• Culture & Society: music, art, brands, identity, reinvention and the patterns that shape how people think and act.

"I started EnergyCrew because I wanted a place to work through ideas in public: part notebook, part explainer, part platform for future books, talks and useful conversations."
