    Company Overview

    Acelerex

    2017

    Approximately 20 employees (source: rocketreach.co).

    What They Do

    Acelerex specializes in digital grid solutions that facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, and electric vehicles into contemporary power grids. The company focuses on grid analytics, automation, data services, and strategic planning for grid operations (source: acelerex.com). Its flagship product, the REX™ Digital Grid software platform, combines advanced grid analytics with proprietary innovations in artificial intelligence, machine learning, Internet of Things devices, blockchain technology, big data, and cloud computing. This platform is designed to optimize energy management systems (EMS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) technologies (source: acelerex.com).

    As a software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider, Acelerex offers a range of products including energy storage testing software, real-time monitoring tools, AI forecasting applications, and blockchain smart contracts, complemented by advisory services in clean energy and storage (source: hbs.edu). The company targets a diverse clientele that includes utilities, grid developers, policymakers, regulators, and clean energy investment funds globally, with increasing interest from sectors such as transportation, natural gas, and water networks (source: acelerex.com).

    Acelerex differentiates itself through its comprehensive platform approach to addressing grid challenges during the ongoing energy transition and digital transformation. Notably, the company has experienced a tenfold increase in energy storage orders for its grid controls software on a megawatt basis over the last two quarters leading up to its recent investment announcement (source: hbs.edu). This positioning as a pioneer in SaaS for renewable integration is further supported by its base at the Cambridge Innovation Center, where it leverages big data and grid analytics to enhance its offerings (source: greentownlabs.com).

    Projects & Track Record

    While specific project names, locations, and capacities are not detailed in the available sources, Acelerex has successfully developed proof-of-concept and minimum viable products across all its targeted services by 2019, achieving sales across all business lines, including grid controls software (source: hbs.edu). The company has reported significant interest from customers and partners, particularly in energy storage grid controls, with a remarkable tenfold increase in orders on a megawatt basis in recent quarters prior to its investment round (source: acelerex.com). Acelerex is actively working on scaling its REX™ platform globally, providing advisory services to a variety of stakeholders including governments, utilities, and investment funds (source: acelerex.com).

    Recent Developments

    In recent years, Acelerex secured an oversubscribed investment round, raising 20% more than its target, led by a consortium that includes Terry Boston, the former CEO of PJM Interconnection, and Steve Bolze, the former CEO of GE Power & Water. This funding is aimed at scaling the REX™ Digital Grid platform in response to trends in AI and machine learning within the clean energy sector (source: acelerex.com). This investment follows Terry Boston's earlier involvement as a shareholder and strategic partner to support the growth of Acelerex's grid business (source: acelerex.com). The company has also reported a tenfold increase in energy storage orders for its grid controls software over the two quarters leading up to the investment announcement (source: acelerex.com).

    Working There

    Acelerex employs a team of professionals with advanced degrees in technical fields relevant to power sector operations. By early 2019, the company had grown to approximately 20 staff members, driven by increasing demand for its services, and continues to scale with the support of recent investments (source: hbs.edu). Roles within the company encompass software development, consulting, grid analytics, automation, and data services, leveraging the founder's extensive expertise in generation, transmission, distribution, storage, and consumption (source: acelerex.com). Hiring occurs across multiple office locations, including its headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts, as well as offices in Santiago, Chile; Istanbul, Turkey; and Gujarat, India, with plans for further growth in the U.S. market (source: acelerex.com).
