Our Mission
Cypher Electrification exists to make electrification clear, practical, and durable. Electrification shouldn’t feel like a gamble. Our job is to make the path clear—technical truth, clean project planning, and execution that holds up in the field.
Our work sits at the intersection of:
-
High-power charging – DC fast and Level 2 networks for depots, hubs, and public sites
-
Energy management – depot controls, load shaping, and smart scheduling
-
On-site power – portable battery systems, storage, solar, and backup power
OUR PROCESS
Step 1: Discovery & Goals
We learn your vehicles, routes, site conditions, timeline, and what “success” actually means (uptime, cost, scalability).
Step 2: Data & Load Reality Check
We validate energy needs against utility constraints, existing electrical capacity, and operating patterns—so assumptions don’t become surprises.
Step 3: Concept Plan & Actions
We map the site approach (charger mix, power architecture, phasing) and present a few buildable paths with clear tradeoffs.
Step 4: Scope + Schedule + Budget
We convert the plan into an executable scope: equipment, construction approach, rough order costs, permitting/utility steps, and a real timeline.
Step 5: Delivery & Coordination
We align stakeholders—utility, AHJ, engineers, contractors, and operations—and keep the project moving with tight communication and issue resolution.
Step 6: Commissioning & Handoff
We verify performance, document what was built, and set up the operational layer (monitoring, controls, SOPs) so the system runs reliably.
About Joe
Joe Howard brings 12+ years in EV charging systems, energy management, and power electronics—spanning hardware, product leadership, and fleet deployment. Before Cypher Energy Services, he held senior roles at ChargePoint, including Senior Product Manager for global DC fast charging and energy management, Fleet Solutions Engineering Manager for transit and commercial fleets, and Staff Systems Hardware Engineer designing DC fast charging equipment from 30kW to 200kW. He also contributed to advanced EV and sensor hardware work at NIO. Joe’s edge is translating complexity into decisions owners can trust: scope, technical validation, vendor alignment, and utility coordination—so charging infrastructure is built for uptime, scalability, and real operating conditions.
