Description

Chief Financial Officer


Nuvve Corp. is a San Diego based company, whose mission is to lower the cost of electrical vehicle (EV)

ownership while supporting the integration of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar. Our

Grid Integrated Vehicle platform GIVe™ transforms EVs into grid assets when charging while

guaranteeing the expected level of charge when the vehicle owner needs it. The aggregation of

thousands of electric vehicles into a virtual power plant using the GIVe platform, allows Nuvve to

participate in electricity markets with a power capacity comparable to traditional generators. Based on

“Vehicle To Grid” technology or “v2g” the GIVe platform gives benefits to public organizations, businesses

and homes by reducing the cost of electric infrastructure and reducing CO2 emissions.

The health and safety of our employees is our top priority. While our San Diego office is currently closed
