 The Tomcat Center launched our innovation transfer program about a year and a half ago. This was motivated by a desire to really have our work have the biggest impact it could. We also wanted to help get these wonderful inventions and discoveries out of the laboratory and in use in the energy systems globally. Tomcat funding was really important to us because we had developed an idea at the bench scale that looked very promising. This idea is only a few gallons per day of water being treated. The Tomcat Center funding allowed us to move to a Delta Diablo in the North Bay and build a pilot facility and test it there and that was critical for proof of concept at a believable scale. Well the Tomcat funding really came at a critical time for us. That allowed us to hire more people, get the necessary equipment, reliability chambers, etc. I think the number one thing we got from Tomcat was early validation. Before we received any grant funding from the federal government, before we received any measure capital funding, all of which we have now, Tomcat was the first organization to say there's something here and we want to support it and not only was it funding, it was constant connections to opportunities, potential customers, potential employees, potential partners. For too long we have equated energy with the consumption of natural resources. Apart from being cheap and clean, data is different from all other resources. It is the only resource which is growing. If we're successful in our mission, we can dramatically reduce the soft cost of a solar PV installation. If we can allow our solar installers to go all the way from performing a preliminary side assessment to generating a permit set in one streamlined application, then the possibilities are huge in terms of making solar installations competitive with conventional energy sources. What we can do together is much bigger than what we've done so far and that's really something I care a lot about and hope will happen.
