Heat pumps, battery storage, and a billion-ton bet on the future.

What happens when a 120-year-old company decides to blow up the status quo?  I was able to find out in a recent interview with Dr. Ravi Annapragada, Director of Product Sustainability at Carrier, about how the company is ditching incrementalism and going all-in on bold, tech-driven climate solutions.

"Innovation at Carrier isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a mandate," Annapragada insists. As he explains, Carrier is throwing down a multi-billion-dollar gauntlet to transform homes and buildings into intelligent, electrified, grid-aware ecosystems. 

From developing heat pumps that work in sub-zero temperatures to embedding AI for predictive energy use, Carrier is reengineering not just its product line—but the entire idea of what HVAC can be. “We’re enabling 100 gigawatts of flexible load management,” he says. “That’s over 10% of the U.S. peak load.”

 

Why should you watch his video?

Because this is what the future looks like: AI-powered resiliency, electrification at scale, and real-deal commitments to slash global emissions, survive grid outages, and save lots of money. If you care about climate tech, sustainable housing, or the massive shift toward electrification, this conversation is your must-watch blueprint for what’s next.
