Light provides businesses with an API that lets them offer branded electricity plans and virtual power plant services without becoming a utility.
Becoming an electricity provider normally requires years of licensing, wholesale procurement, commodity-risk management, billing, customer support, and grid-integration work, while Light says companies can launch embedded plans through its API in as little as two weeks. Its $46 million Series A is funding expansion beyond Texas into PJM as Light reports reaching more than 30% of U.S. residential solar sales, over 500,000 homeowners, more than 1 million multifamily units, 100% of new Texas electricity brands in the first half of 2026, and 10x run-rate revenue growth in 12 months.
