Voltus operates a demand response platform that pays commercial and industrial customers to reduce electricity use during grid stress events, acting as a virtual power plant.
Voltus is a demand response and distributed energy resource management company founded in 2016 that aggregates commercial and industrial electricity users into virtual power plants that grid operators can call upon during peak demand or stress events. The platform connects large electricity consumers including manufacturers, data centers, cold storage facilities, and commercial buildings, enrolling their flexible loads in demand response programs that pay customers for the ability to curtail consumption when the grid needs relief. Voltus manages over 3,000 megawatts of demand flexibility across North American electricity markets, making it one of the largest demand response aggregators in the continent. The company raised $75M and processes over $100M in annual customer payments for grid services. As the electricity grid incorporates more intermittent renewable energy, demand flexibility becomes increasingly valuable as a complement to storage and transmission for managing supply-demand balance. Voltus enables commercial customers to monetize operational flexibility they already have without capital investment in new equipment.
Houston diversified energy (NYSE: PSX) at $145.5B 2024 revenue; Coastal Bend NGL acquisition $2.2B (2024), Rodeo renewable diesel/SAF complex, LA Refinery closed, Q4 2024 adjusted loss amid refining margin pressure vs Valero.
Phillips 66 is a Houston, Texas-based diversified energy manufacturing and logistics company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: PSX) as an S&P 500 Energy component — operating 13 refineries with 2.2 million barrels-per-day capacity, midstream pipeline and NGL infrastructure, retail fuel brands, a chemicals joint venture, and a renewable fuels facility through approximately 14,000 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Phillips 66 generated $145.5 billion in revenue, though Q4 2024 earnings fell to $8 million versus $346 million in Q3 2024 (adjusted loss of $61 million) due to refining margin compression from the spread between crude oil input costs and refined product prices. Spun off from ConocoPhillips in May 2012, Phillips 66 operates through five segments: Refining (processing crude oil into gasoline, distillates, and aviation fuel), Midstream (crude and NGL pipelines, terminals, and natural gas processing including the 2024 $2.2 billion EPIC NGL acquisition renamed Coastal Bend), Marketing and Specialties (Phillips 66, Conoco, 76, and JET fuel brands at 7,000+ branded retail sites across North America and Europe), Chemicals (CPChem joint venture with Chevron Phillips Chemical producing ethylene, polyethylene, and aromatics), and Renewable Fuels (Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex producing renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel — SAF). In 2024, Phillips 66 divested its 65% stake in German and Austrian retail operations for $1.6 billion and announced closure of its Los Angeles Refinery.
