Editor's note: For SXSW 2021, the Greater Houston Partnership produced two days of interviews and panels hosted by me — Natalie Harms, editor of InnovationMap — and focused on Houston innovation. One focused on how Houston is leading the energy transition and the other highlighted Houston's progress on creating a thriving and inclusive innovation ecosystem.

In this video, Doug Moorehead, managing partner and CTO of Broad Reach Power, discusses the future of energy storage and how profoundly important it is toward preventing another winter storm power outage like Texas experienced in February.
