Revert Technologies is a Maine-based climate-tech company that helps businesses cut electricity waste by turning things off. Its plug-and-play smart plugs and surge protectors pair with a cloud AI platform that learns usage patterns and utility prices to automatically manage plug loads, kill phantom power, and report energy and carbon savings. Born at Yale and hardened through the Roux Institute Techstars Accelerator, Revert turns the boring problem of standby power into measurable savings and lower emissions.
Ryan Li is the co-founder and CEO of Revert Technologies, a climate-tech company building AI-powered smart power adapters that hunt down 'phantom load' - the electricity devices waste while switched off. A chemical engineer turned energy operator, Li drilled deep-sea wells for Shell, designed green hydrogen plants, and ran Alibaba's US SMB business before building hardware in Maine that he describes as 'the easiest energy decision you'll ever make.' His company measures its own success in one unit: tons of CO2 removed.
