Our take

If an energy provider is to scale over time, it is essential for it to take great care in conducting forecasts, reports and pricing that reflect the current state of the market. The most recent market data is used to achieve this, but such data is often not recent enough, and this can lead to great financial risk for energy providers.

Gorilla provides a data-driven analytics platform for energy providers, including tools for dynamic pricing, forecasting, and reporting that reflect real-time energy market data. The company claims that its technology can help energy providers increase their margins and mitigate risk, ultimately empowering them to streamline and scale their operations.

Whilst data-driven energy solutions are becoming increasingly common, these often concern areas such as sustainability or certificate trading, as opposed to Gorilla’s unique focus on forecasting, reporting and pricing. Through its tools, the company aims to help energy providers futureproof their operations, optimise revenue, and facilitate growth through accurate and rapid quoting.

Company values

  • We’re all data rangers making Gorilla thrive! A Data Ranger embodies the pioneering spirit of Gorilla, dedicated to our ongoing mission to bring agility, innovation, and expertise to the energy industry which is at the cornerstone of our economy, society, and environment today. Because change is constant a Data Ranger needs to be agile, resourceful, and able to navigate through uncertain and challenging environments to achieve its goals.
  • Vulnerability: High vulnerability and self-awareness are key to building trust and learning fast, which is more important than titles, prestige and ego. Rangers grow fast by asking questions without judging or being judged.
  • Open communication: Growth is impossible without seeking feedback. Rangers seek and give feedback constantly, and use it to get to the best possible outcome as a team.
  • Ownership: Rangers autonomously take decisions, take the lead in order to move forward fast and efficient, with as little hierarchical dependencies as possible. They own their growth and ambitions.
