Saxon Energy Services Inc. is a Calgary, AB-based company in the Energy & Utilities sector.
Amonix is the world leading designer and proprietary manufacturer of patented high-performance High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV) power generation systems for utility scale applications. Amonix is located in Torrance, California, just minutes from LAX and the Port of Los Angeles. The Amonix mission is to bring solar profitably to the main stream in the power generation market by offering renewable solar power at a fraction of the cost of traditional photovoltaic systems. The Amonix product is a fully integrated two-axis tracking system that promises to lower the cost of solar electricity compared to conventional one-sun solar systems. Amonix's concentrating solar technology leverages billions of dollars that have been invested in the microelectronics industry by enabling the company to manufacture its high-efficiency solar cell at existing microelectronic chip manufacturing foundries. Not only does this save money, but it also allows manufacturing to be ramped up quickly without tens of millions of dollars of investment. Amonix's HCPV system tracks the sun, capturing up to 25 , 30% more energy than fixed photovoltaic systems, and operates during periods of peak power demand. The company's extensive field experience has produced a reliable 5th generation commercial system designed to meet or exceed stringent customer requirements for a minimum 20 year life span.
Headquartered at The University of Texas at Austin, Pecan Street Inc. is a research and development organization focused on developing and testing advanced technology, business model and customer behavior surrounding advanced energy management systems. Our flagship effort is the Pecan Street Demonstration, a smart grid research project that began in Austin’s Mueller community. The organization is comprised of two divisions. The Pecan Street Research Institute is a scientific research institute, focused on advancing understanding and solutions addressing utility system reliability, climate change, renewable energy integration and customer needs and preferences. The Institute is the nation’s most significant creator of original customer energy use research data available to the research community. Pecan Street’s specific research expertise consists of creating, managing, protecting, analyzing and responsibly sharing the highest quality original research data on how customers use electricity, natural gas and water in their homes and businesses. The Pike Powers Laboratory and Center for Commercialization offers specialized capabilities for developing, testing and validating a wide range of smart grid, distributed energy and consumer electronics hardware and software.

The initiative began in 2008 as a community collaboration to spark the nascent “smart grid” market in Austin the way that the MCC and SEMATECH consortia sparked the region’s semiconductor and information technology sectors a generation ago. Representatives of the founding members – the City of Austin, Austin Energy, The University of Texas, the Austin Technology Incubator, the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce and Environmental Defense Fund – enlisted the participation of nearly a dozen private companies to explore the technical, economic and policy implications of an energy system that relies on better energy efficiency, locally generated renewable energy and a new economic model for electricity utilities. During that initial effort, the founding partners formed a stand-alone organization called Pecan Street Project Inc. that would carry on the effort’s vision beyond the release of the report of recommendations. The 501 (c) (3) non-profit Pecan Street Project Inc. was incorporated in August 2009, before the report of recommendations was released, and renamed Pecan Street Inc. in 2011. The new organization’s first objective was a successful application for a U.S. Department of Energy stimulus grant for a smart grid demonstration at Austin’s Mueller community. The grant was awarded in November 2009, and the demonstration is currently being implemented. Through the Pecan Street Research Institute and Pike Powers Laboratory and Center for Commercialization, the organization continues to explore research and commercialization efforts on a wide range of energy and consumer electronic topics.
