Total Bookings Soar 42%, Total Energy Procured Surges 135%, and Renewable Energy Volumes Leap by Nearly 200%

Fairfield, NJ – August 28, 2024 – Transparent Energy, the national leader in auction-based energy procurement for renewable energy, traditional power, and natural gas, today announced year-over-year bookings in the first half of 2024 soared 42 percent and total energy-spend managed on behalf of clients surged 135%. A look across the company’s major growth metrics shows a company in high demand among the country’s largest and most discerning energy buyers as they look for a partner capable of meeting their most pressing energy needs and long-term sustainability goals.

Transparent Energy’s procurement prowess, underscored by its industry-leading auction technology and stellar sourcing process, has been on display across a who’s who of buyers, spanning data centers, healthcare and hospitality companies, manufacturers, retailers, and wholesalers.

In other developments, the company’s expertise in renewable energy transactions delivered memorable first-half-year results, including a mega-transaction for a New York State renewables aggregation that delivered eight-figure savings, and a virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) for a prominent distributor of specialty construction supplies. In sum, Transparent Energy’s renewable energy procurement portfolio rose by nearly 200% in the first six months of 2024.
