Intern search, activate!

Welcome to My Next Electric, a newsletter about electrifying machines and educating humans. Today, an ask — for your help finding two curious people to work with me this March - April.

Did you know that each of the two things we discuss here has a dedicated, side-hustle/startup attached to it? True story:

• Electrifying machines = batteriesincludedfund.com

• Educating humans about it = mynextelectric.com

Cool things are afoot on both fronts:

• New investments by the fund

• New pop-courses piloting

• New laws being drafted for VPPs and DERs in New Orleans

It is time to ask for some help, so I’ve launched a search for 2 part-time interns! One will focus on investing in energy startups (Remote OK) the other on educating kids & adults about the future of energy (IRL, New Orleans).

• 18 yrs or older

• $1,000 each

• Mar-Apr ‘26

• Apps due by noon Central US, Feb 22.

Please spread the word or get in touch if you’ve got ideas!

Thanks, Matt
