Purpose
The “Why Surge” talk track helps you clearly explain what Surge is, what makes it unique, and why joining the platform is a valuable opportunity - whether you’re speaking with a potential client, member, or partner. A consistent talk track ensures that every member: Scout, Strategist, or Mentor - can represent Surge professionally and accurately. It highlights the platform’s credibility, differentiators, and purpose without sounding scripted.
Core Message
“Surge is a national clean energy platform connecting businesses and organizations with vetted renewable energy solutions - solar, storage, EV charging, lighting, and more. We’re not an installer or a broker; we’re a unified network that brings together technology, financing, and project delivery under one roof.”
From there, tailor your message depending on your audience.

Short Elevator Pitch Versions
Use these when you only have 15–30 seconds:
“Surge connects businesses with turnkey clean energy solutions - solar, storage, EV charging, lighting - all in one platform.”
“We’re building the Hypergrid - modernizing America’s energy systems through one unified commercial clean energy network.”
“Think of Surge as the bridge between clean energy projects and the partners who can build them.”
Best Practices
Keep it conversational - don’t over-script yourself.
Always tailor the message to who you’re speaking with (client vs. member).
Focus on benefits, not features.
End with an invitation: “Would you like to explore how Surge could help your organization?” or “Want to see how you can get involved?”
