On this Earth Day 2021, VECKTA Project Development Specialist Stephen Kapp shares thoughts on the imperative need for a sustainable future. VECKTA is committed to building the renewable energy future today. Earth Day 2021 Last night for the first time I watched Sir David Attenborough’s film released in 2020: “A Life on Our Planet." Having enjoyed

In this series, we talk with some of the passionate, high-performance team members who are co-creating the Energy Transition Platform: the leading global marketplace for Distributed Energy Systems (DES). Balay Aydemir is a Frontend Engineer creating our marketplace platform. She spoke with us previously on overcoming the challenges women face in the tech industry. Meet

Humans have harnessed renewable energy resources such as wind, running water, solar, or biomass for centuries. Their application has ranged from driving basic mill machinery to heating homes, or fueling various energy demands. Contrary to conventional fuels that can be burnt and used only once, renewables have the ability to be replenished within a very

At VECKTA, we’re co-creating the Energy Transition Platform: the leading global marketplace for design, optimization, and procurement of complete Distributed Energy Systems (DES), with a special focus on industrial microgrids. In this series, we talk with some of the passionate, high-performance team members who are making this happen. Tristan Jackson is VECKTA’s Co-Founder and Chief

While solar and wind turbine generation are more common microgrid generation options, bioenergy microgrids are gaining traction in many areas. Bioenergy is a renewable energy source derived from biomass—organic matter such as crop- and urban wood waste, microalgae, food waste, or even purpose-grown grasses. When deployed in microgrid projects, bioenergy usually consists of biogas generated

The theme for International Women’s Day 2021 is “Choose to Challenge.” This especially resonates with our VECKTA team, as one of our core values is to always challenge limits, never accepting that something cannot be done solely because it hasn’t been done before. Women are at the heart of the VECKTA team, driving innovation as

With renewable energy sources fast-becoming reliable, cost-efficient sources of electricity, many mining companies are reevaluating their power options. Hybrid power systems—combining two (or more) means of power generation—afford mining companies with a balanced approach to mitigate the risks associated with power outages while also lowering operating costs and improving sustainability. Previously, concerns about the reliability
