Client Highlights

On December 14, 2023, Google Nest Renew, a load shifting service for Google Nest thermostats that help customers shift their energy usage to times when the electrical grid is cleaner or energy is less expensive, announced that it is spinning out from Google and combining with OhmConnect, a start-up that Sidewalk Infrastructure Partners (SIP) invests in that helps manage load shifting services for Nest and other smart thermostat brands. The new company will be called "Renew Home." Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati is advising OhmConnect on the transaction.

SIP will combine their platform company, OhmConnect, with assets from Google Nest’s Renew service business to form Renew Home, which will help customers and energy providers unlock energy savings and rewards in a way that supports a clean energy grid. Renew Home will combine OhmConnect’s innovative home energy management platform, which has helped California avoid dangerous blackouts, with Google Nest’s leadership in energy products and services that help customers prioritize cheaper and cleaner energy. Nest Renew and OhmConnect customers will have improved experiences and offerings, as Renew Home works with partners across the energy industry to offer savings and rewards while accelerating the clean energy transition. SIP is also investing $100 million in fresh capital to drive Renew Home’s future growth as a SIP platform company. The closing of the transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
