In this episode of the Age of Adoption Podcast, Keith sits down with Gareth Evans, CEO of VECKTA. Growing up in Liverpool, England, Gareth dreamed of becoming a fast jet pilot with the Royal Air Force. Sponsored by the Air Force to study environmental science, his career journey began in environmental remediation, where he worked to clean up old oil and gas well sites in post-Gulf War Iraq. The experience revealed to Gareth the instability and inefficiencies of relying on central energy grids and motivated him to become a disruptive force in the energy industry. Gareth's vision of transforming the century-old energy consumption model led to the birth of VECKTA, which simplifies and modernizes the deployment of onsite energy systems. Today, Gareth and VECKTA help businesses through the energy transition process, ensuring sustainability while meeting economic goals.

For this episode, David is joined by Gareth Evans, who is the CEO and founder of VECKTA, an organization that helps businesses make the transition to a more sustainable way of operating without sacrificing their bottom line.  Gareth explains how he helps companies to work out which energy efficiency and environmentally friendly options are available and practical for them. Once the business decides which option is right, VECKTA use their expertise to help them with implementation. He and David discuss, offsetting, improving efficiency, on-site power generation, storage and how companies can make more money by changing the way they use energy. KEY TAKEAWAYS There are many ways for businesses to generate and store their own energy. Businesses do not have to sacrifice profits to become greener. Many make even more money by doing so. Generating and storing power comes in many forms including solar, fuel cells and more Gareth works with customers to make far more efficient use of all types of fuel including gas and diesel.  Start with improving efficiency. Avoid paying high energy prices during peak periods by storing power. Big audacious goals drive innovation. Use on-site power as a hedging mechanism. You always have power, and the cost never goes up. Locally generated power is the long-term answer. AI is making things easier. BEST MOMENTS ‘We are an agnostic, independent platform that represents the buyer's best interests.' ‘The biggest challenge for businesses is not knowing what´s possible.' ‘They're able to reduce their energy costs by $1.2 million per year, reduce their emissions by 49%.' ‘The price point is now right.'

On Today's Episode: While businesses grapple with skyrocketing energy costs, increasingly frequent power outages, and mounting pressure to reduce carbon emissions, clean energy & energy efficiency providers struggle with how to find & convert them as customers. The complexity of on-stie energy challenges often leaves businesses feeling overwhelmed with options for transitioning to cleaner, more resilient, on-site energy solutions, also known as distributed energy resources. Adding to this complexity are the 'soft costs' associated with developing these solutions, which include consulting, engineering, sales, and procurement, which can account for a staggering 50% of project costs. The energy market also suffers from a pervasive information asymmetry. Buyers often find themselves at a loss for who to trust, and suppliers struggle for project traction due to customer indecision.Gareth Evans, the CEO and founder of VECKTA, designed a company specifically to tackle these challenges head-on. Their unique platform helps businesses navigate the energy transition by developing tailored strategies, prioritizing projects, designing optimal solutions, and providing access to vetted suppliers via a streamlined marketplace. In our conversation, Evans offers an in-depth look into how VECKTA managed to overcome the hurdles of achieving product-market fit, which included building their platform in isolation during a global pandemic. Evans also shares insights about managing the growing pains of a start-up: from recruiting and maintaining an effective team, to raising capital, to managing the transition from intrapreneur to CEO.Evans offers a unique perspective on the transformation that businesses must undergo to meet increasing environmental pressures and transition to more resilient energy solutions. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in how businesses can navigate the complexities of the energy transition and provides valuable insights into the challenges and triumphs of leading a startup in a rapidly evolving industry. VECKTA may have just unlocked the doorway to scaling the C&I sector for what Evans prefers to call “On-site Energy”, which we have commonly referred to as Distributed Energy, Solar, Energy Effiiency, etc. Give it a listen and let us know what you think with a note on Linkedin or X!

Gareth Evans and I had a great talk, and if you want to move to cleaner energy, new clean tech, and management tools are required.Gareth has a lot of excellent talking points about the energy transition and the importance of distributed energy sources. One of the critical points holding up the energy transition is the failing grid, and the upgrades required are not funded or even on the horizon.One solution is to design energy solutions to reduce the number of transmission lines required. The idea of lowering the costs for grid upgrades is how any progress will be made in reducing costs to consumers.Please connect with Gareth on his LinkedIn HERE: VECKTA accelerates and simplifies the deployment of onsite energy solutions.
