JLL Teams Up with VECKTA to Accelerate Distributed and Onsite Energy Deployment at Scale

JLL’s Energy Advisory practice has announced a strategic collaboration with VECKTA Corporation, the onsite energy intelligence platform and marketplace, to provide commercial real estate (CRE) owners and occupiers a fully integrated path from energy strategy through competitive procurement and contract execution. The arrangement brings together JLL’s proven energy advisory expertise and extensive client relationships with VECKTA’s innovative technology platform and expertise to help commercial and industrial clients deploy distributed energy projects, including solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS), faster and more cost effectively.

The collaboration addresses critical challenges facing modern organisations as they work to meet sustainability targets while simultaneously managing rising energy costs, load growth and grid reliability concerns. It also enables JLL to offer clients more sophisticated onsite energy system analytics and procurement capabilities that dramatically reduce soft costs and accelerate time-to-market.

Brian Rappaport, Managing Director, Head of Commercial Energy Solutions, Energy Advisory at JLL, said, “Teaming up with VECKTA enables our team to deliver industry-leading speed and analytical rigor across our clients’ institutional real estate portfolios. VECKTA’s cloud-based, marketplace platform allows JLL to rapidly screen hundreds of energy intensive facilities, all while maintaining the deep advisory expertise and client relationships that differentiate JLL in the market.”

Dan Roberts, VECKTA Head of Sales and Co-Founder, said, “The problem has always been execution at scale. With energy economics where they are today, the cost of waiting is real, and this collaboration gives JLL clients the analytical rigor and procurement infrastructure to execute.”

With JLL and VECKTA’s support, clients can deploy photovoltaic solar systems, thermal solar, wind energy, BESS, microgrids, combined heat and power systems and emerging technologies like hydrogen fuel cells across their portfolios. VECKTA’s marketplace of thousands of vetted suppliers connects clients with qualified developers while maintaining procurement integrity and transparency throughout the transaction process.
