Marketing for grid, transmission and energy storage companies
Utilities, transmission operators, developers and large power users that buy grid equipment and storage. Vektron makes the client known to their planning and procurement staff before tenders open.
Who buys grid equipment and storage, and how?
Utilities and transmission operators buy through pre-qualification and formal tenders, and their engineers weigh a supplier's record with the utility. A new supplier has to be known to planning and procurement staff long before a tender is published.
Storage developers have a second task. They need a site with grid access and a buyer or market for the capacity, which means reaching two different sets of people.
How Vektron builds technical credibility with utilities
Published grid plans, tender notices and, where public, interconnection queues show which utilities and developers have projects coming. We identify the planning engineers and procurement heads at each. Articles and short videos from the client's engineers go to that audience, and outreach is timed to each buyer's procurement calendar.
The client prices, warrants and contracts on its own terms, and writes its own technical submissions.
Questions
How do grid equipment suppliers get pre-qualified with utilities? Through each utility's supplier registration, supported by technical documents. Engineers who already know the product before the tender opens are more likely to invite the supplier.
Who buys battery storage capacity? Utilities, grid operators, large industrial users and, in some markets, trading companies. The buyer set depends on the market rules where the project sits.
