Uplight-acquired DERMS and VPP platform managing 3,500 MW of flexibility for National Grid and NextEra; $160M raised at $22.9M revenue enabling utilities to orchestrate batteries, EVs, and smart loads for grid balancing.
AutoGrid is a Redwood City, California-based energy flexibility management software company — acquired by Uplight (Boulder-based energy technology company) in 2023 after raising $160 million from investors including GE Ventures, Envision Energy, Eneco, and ENGIE — providing utilities, energy retailers, and grid operators with AI-powered distributed energy resource management (DERMS), virtual power plant (VPP) orchestration, and demand flexibility platforms that aggregate and dispatch batteries, electric vehicles, HVAC systems, and industrial loads to balance grid supply and demand in real time. AutoGrid generated $22.9 million in revenue prior to acquisition and deployed technology managing 3,500 MW of flexibility capacity and 37,000 MWh of energy storage, serving customers including National Grid, NextEra Energy, and Pacific Gas & Electric.
Houston oilfield completions and drilling (NYSE: HAL) $22.9B FY2024 revenue; #1 US hydraulic fracturing, Zeus E-frac, international expansion, $4.0B adj. operating income competing with SLB and Baker Hughes.
Halliburton Company is a Houston, Texas-based oilfield services company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: HAL) as an S&P 500 Energy component — providing products and services for the exploration, development, and production of oil and natural gas through two segments: Completion and Production (hydraulic fracturing, cementing, artificial lift, wireline logging) and Drilling and Evaluation (drill bits, directional drilling, formation evaluation, well construction planning) through approximately 50,000 employees in 70+ countries. In fiscal year 2024, Halliburton reported revenues of $22.9 billion and adjusted operating income of $4.0 billion, with North America (the most important market — driven by US shale completions) generating $8.6 billion and international operations (Middle East, Latin America, Africa, Europe) generating $14.3 billion. CEO Jeff Miller has led Halliburton's return to strong profitability following the COVID-19 oil demand collapse with a disciplined capital-light model: rather than owning all completion equipment (pressure pumping fleets, cementing units), Halliburton has entered long-term customer partnerships where major E&P operators (Pioneer, EOG, Devon, ConocoPhillips) commit multi-year completion work to Halliburton in exchange for deployment priority and dedicated crew relationships — reducing equipment idle time and Halliburton's capital requirements while securing predictable activity levels. Halliburton's Zeus electric fracturing fleet (E-frac using natural gas-powered electric motors to drive frac pumps rather than diesel engines) reduces NOx emissions and fuel cost for US shale operators — achieving 40-50% fuel cost reduction that operators increasingly specify as a sustainability requirement.
