Partnership program

Solid-state marine batteries meet the grid revenue that pays for them.

GridLinq electrifies marina slips, dry-stack racks, campground pedestals and RV resort sites for vehicle-to-grid dispatch. A solid-state marine battery partner supplies the safest, longest-cycling storage on the water. Together the pitch stops being a battery upgrade and becomes an asset that earns.

Why the two products belong together

Bidirectional-ready storage

Solid-state packs bring the cycle life, thermal margin and depth-of-discharge tolerance that daily grid dispatch demands. GridLinq supplies the pedestals, submetering and dispatch layer that turn those packs into a revenue asset instead of a parked cost.

A safety story that opens docks

Fire risk is the single biggest objection in enclosed dry stacks, covered slips and RV storage buildings. Non-flammable solid-state chemistry is the answer marina insurers and campground owners are already asking for — and it is the wedge that opens the site conversation.

Shared pipeline, not referral fees

Every qualified property GridLinq assesses produces a slip, rack and pedestal count. That is a battery bill of materials. Both companies work one pipeline with shared stages, shared forecasting and a defined revenue share.

Where we sell together

Three segments, one motion. Each one already has an assessment funnel, an ROI model and a routing tier inside GridLinq — a partner plugs straight into live pipeline.

Marinas & boatyards

Wet slips, covered slips and dry-stack racks

Vessels sit plugged in eight to ten months a year. Repower and new-build electric hulls specify a pack; GridLinq specifies the pedestal that charges and discharges it.

  • Co-branded slip electrification assessments for the property owner
  • Partner pack specified as the recommended retrofit for owner repowers
  • Insurer-facing safety documentation bundled into every dry-stack proposal

RV resorts & campgrounds

Transient sites and full-time seasonal rentals

Full-time residents and long-stay rigs are effectively fixed storage on wheels. House-bank upgrades plus metered bidirectional pedestals make peak export practical at park scale.

  • House-bank upgrade offers packaged with pedestal installs
  • Park-operator financing built around a per-site monthly instead of CapEx
  • Seasonal dispatch modeling shared with both sales teams

Waterfront condominiums

Ownership groups with slips and housing

Boards buy resilience first and revenue second. A combined pack-and-pedestal microgrid proposal answers both in one document to one decision-maker.

  • Resilience-first joint proposals sized to the association's outage exposure
  • Board presentation kit co-branded and delivered by whichever party owns the account
  • Reserve-study language both companies can stand behind

How the partnership runs

Joint go-to-market

  • One shared target account list, reviewed monthly
  • Co-branded collateral for marina, RV and condominium segments
  • Joint presence at marine trade shows and RV park operator conferences
  • Shared case studies published on both properties

Technical & deployment

  • Interoperability validation between partner packs and GridLinq pedestals
  • Two reference demo sites — one marina, one RV resort — inside the first two quarters
  • Shared installer training and certification materials
  • Joint warranty and field-service escalation path

Pipeline & reporting

  • Shared deal registration to prevent channel conflict
  • Quarterly business review against booked and forecast volume
  • Agreed attribution rules before any lead changes hands
  • Named partnership owner on each side with a standing cadence

Deal terms on the table

These are the commercial defaults in the draft Marketing & Sales Agreement. They are a starting position, not a take-it-or-leave-it — every line is negotiable against committed volume.

Term

24 months

Auto-renewing in 12-month terms unless either party gives 60 days' notice.

Territory

United States & Canada

Non-exclusive by default; segment exclusivity available against committed volume.

Revenue share

Sourcing party leads

The party that sources and closes the account books the deal; the other is compensated on attached hardware or services at the agreed rate.

Marketing fund

Matched contribution

Each party funds an equal quarterly amount for trade shows, content and demo sites, spent against an approved joint plan.

Draft terms for negotiation only. Not legal advice — have counsel review before signature.

From intro to signed in four steps

01

Mutual NDA & fit review

Two weeks. Confirm chemistry specs, certifications, production capacity and target segments against GridLinq's active pipeline.

02

Execute the marketing & sales agreement

The draft agreement below covers term, territory, roles, revenue share, marketing fund, IP and brand use. Redline it directly.

03

Two reference sites

One marina dry stack, one RV resort. Instrumented, documented and turned into the joint case studies that carry the rest of the program.

04

Scale the channel

Installer certification, segment campaigns and quarterly business reviews against a committed volume plan.

Let's put a pack in every slip.

Bring your spec sheet and production plan. GridLinq brings the assessed pipeline, the pedestal platform and the dispatch economics. We can be on two reference sites within a quarter.
