Our take
LevelTen Energy’s platform and marketplace facilitates transparent relationships between renewable project developers and organizations that want to buy or invest in renewable energy. Now the leading renewable energy procurement platform in the world, it has helped secure thousands of power purchase agreement offers across the globe.
Originally targeting SMBs, the growing number of corporate buyers caused LevelTen to shift its focus. It instead partners with established energy advisors representing larger corporations, from Fortune 500 companies to universities.
LevelTen Energy's efforts have earned it backing from powerhouses including Google, with funds supporting its further development efforts. Its introduction of "MarketPulse" in 2022 means the platform can supply real-time data and analytics surrounding energy market activity, further simplifying the procurement of renewable energy options even when the market is volatile.
