Exowatt
Exowatt’s P3 platform collects sunlight, stores energy as heat and converts it into electricity on demand. Its ExoRise arm combines energy infrastructure with land for data centers.
Explore what would have to happen.
Use post-investment, fully diluted entry equity value. Ending equity value is after debt. 0 ending value models a total loss. Dilution means ownership lost, not the percentage of a financing round.
No dollar valuation is verified. Both valuations are your assumptions; $140M raised is not an entry valuation.
Uses hypothetical pro-rata equity, your dilution and fee assumptions. It does not establish actual share rights.
ASSUMPTION SCENARIO · NOT A VERIFIED RETURN
ExowattEarly-stage equity sensitivity
Build a scenario before a public exit exists.
Enter the missing valuations or load the labeled example, then select Calculate.
This simplifies ownership to pro-rata equity. Preferred rights, SAFEs, option pools, conversion terms and actual investor eligibility are not established. Excludes taxes, recurring fund fees, distributions and liquidation preferences. No exit probability or investment recommendation is implied.
Formula, fee treatment & limits
Invested amount = cash outlay × (1 − upfront fee). Gross value = invested amount ÷ entry equity value × (1 − cumulative dilution) × ending equity value. Carry = max(gross value − original cash outlay, 0) × carry rate. Net value = gross value − carry.
Carry here is charged only after recovering the original cash outlay, including the upfront fee. Real fund waterfalls can differ. No share price is inferred from a funding amount or company valuation. Dollar values are rounded only for display; no dates or annualized return are inferred.

CTM INTERPRETATION
The investment question
Thermal storage could shift solar output into hours when data centers still need power. The key questions are installed cost, actual delivered electricity, reliability and project financing at commercial scale.
What could work
Repeatable manufacturing and colocated power could shorten time-to-power if the hardware and development model work at scale.
What could break the thesis
Solar resource, land, thermal losses, heat-engine efficiency, permitting, capital intensity and debt service can change economics substantially.
What remains unknown
- The $140M financing headline is not a company valuation and cannot be used as the calculator’s entry valuation.
- The 2024 ambition of electricity as low as $0.01/kWh is a future scaling target, not verified realized project economics.
- Signed demand, pilot plans and strategy announcements do not establish delivered capacity, recognized revenue or binding project profitability.
- No verified per-share financing price, fully diluted capitalization, security conversion or investor liquidation waterfall is established in this profile.
- Audited revenue, margins, cash burn, runway and customer concentration were not verified in the reviewed public sources.
- Private shares may be illiquid, unavailable to a particular investor, diluted or worth zero. Scenario outputs do not establish investment access or a sale.

What’s missing matters.
There are no daily private-market prices between these observations. We do not fill the gaps with an invented curve. Investment returns require the specific security, entry terms, dilution and an actual exit or appropriate mark.
