Heat pumps do a lot: save energy, cut carbon, keep you comfy…but there’s one benefit that often isn’t talked about enough: HEALTH! 🫁 Our very own Stephen Pemberton recently chatted with Jamie Gold, CKD CAPS MCCWC at Forbes about how ditching gas means cleaner air inside your home—no fumes, no CO leaks, no combustion risks. 🫰 Because let’s be real, burning gas indoors isn’t just outdated, it’s a health hazard. Heat pumps? Safe, efficient, and better for you. Check out the full story on the health and safety benefits of heat pumps: https://lnkd.in/gCwapbRP

At Elephant Energy, we know that #DiversityWins. It's a Value we've had since the very beginning of Elephant, and we aren’t changing that perspective. While I didn't expect this to be controversial in 2025, here we are, and I feel compelled to share more about what we choose to value 🐘 We’re building a company that reflects the diverse communities that we work in. We’re committed to treating people equally, no matter their background. And we’re creating an inclusive place to work where we actively listen and include all voices. These values are fundamental to how we operate our business, driving both good business outcomes and aligning with what is morally right. Our mission to make electrification and energy efficiency accessible for all can only succeed if we ensure an equitable energy transition. We're actively building a team to include people of color, women, LGBTQ+ individuals, people with disabilities, and others from underrepresented communities. While we're still on this journey, we're strengthening our hiring practices and expanding our recruitment channels to better reflect the communities we serve. This commitment extends beyond the people we hire. We recognize that easy, affordable electrification is essential for healthy communities, yet many low- and moderate-income (LMI) households face barriers to electrification. We're taking concrete action through: - Innovative production approaches that reduce installation costs - Strategic partnerships with organizations like Energy Outreach Colorado, dedicated to affordable, energy efficient homes for low-income households - Expanded education and outreach programs We’re making progress: - We've partnered with LMI communities to provide heat pumps and energy efficiency upgrades for single- and multi-family homes at low to no cost - We recently hired Gurbani Singh to lead our Partnerships and Environmental Justice work - We installed our 1,000th heat pump for a family facing financial hardship, underscoring our commitment But we know there's more work ahead, and we’re continuing our efforts towards long-term and meaningful change. If you’re interested in reading more about our approach, check out our blog post (https://lnkd.in/g83WzrQx) Thank you Gurbani Singh Emily Startz Heather Stephenson 🚲 Bryan White Kate South for lending your voice here! And as always, incredibly grateful to have Josh Lake as a co-founder here. Impossible to build a company without being mission AND values aligned from Day 1.
