Bob Guimarin

Off The Wall Energy, Inc.

We've been on a long journey to build a solution that provides more control over our individual power usage.  Our goal has been to make positive impacts on people’s lives and the environment by reshaping the way we use electric power.  During our first years, we self-funded and built multiple Personal Energy Platform prototypes to test our assumptions, gain consumer feedback, and enhance the solution.  Fall of  2021, we incorporated in order to seek outside funding to expand our efforts to fully commercialize the product.  We intend to offer an affordable universal solution whether one owns a home or rents an apartment, and which doesn’t require any utility interconnection, authorization, or management.  A solution where the consumer is in control of their energy usage to be more energy efficient, lower their costs, and reduce their climate impact.  The impacts of climate change seen in 2022 with wildfires, floods, and droughts highlight the necessity for more efficient energy usage at the individual level and the need for affordable backup power solutions for everyone.  Connect with me, we'd love to have you be a part of our efforts.
