Battery-Equipped Induction: A New Path to Clean Home Electrification

About this episode

Sam Calisch discusses how battery-equipped induction stoves are transforming home electrification and clean cooking.

Copper Founder & CEO Sam Calisch joins the Cleantech Talk team to discuss how battery-equipped induction stoves are redefining what it means to electrify the kitchen, making clean cooking possible without expensive electrical upgrades or home renovations. Sam breaks down why traditional electrification has left many households behind, how Copper’s plug-in, battery-equipped stoves turn electrification into a simple appliance swap, and what this means for renters, affordable housing providers, and everyday families. The conversation also highlights real-world deployments with partners such as the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator and Esperanza Community Housing Corporation, showing how this approach is already delivering cleaner kitchens, cost savings, and healthier homes.
