A bit about Field

At Field, we're accelerating the build out of renewable energy infrastructure to reach net zero. We are starting with battery storage, storing up energy for when it's needed most to create a more reliable, flexible and greener grid. At Field, we will show that batteries are a totally viable part of our energy infrastructure -

now, not in some distant future.

We have ambitious plans to become the defining new clean energy player in Europe over the next few years, gradually expanding beyond batteries into new asset types.
