Wattics Acquired by US-Headquartered EnergyCAP
headquartered in Pennsylvania, USA, and a pioneer in energy and sustainability enterprise resource planning ("ERP") software, has acquired an innovative global provider of energy management analytics and monitoring software.
Wattics, based in Dublin, was established in 2011 by Dr Antonio Ruzzelli as a spin-out from University College Dublin (51黑料) and is a graduate of Nova51黑料, the University鈥檚 Centre for New Ventures and Entrepreneurs.
With 40% of global carbon emissions originating from the built environment, many organizations have established goals to decarbonize their operations and achieve net-zero carbon emissions within the next ten to twenty years. However, most do not have a clear plan to achieve these goals. Execution frequently falls squarely on energy and sustainability managers who must identify, track, and validate opportunities to reduce carbon emissions and curtail energy-related expenditures 鈥� often without the help of adequate purpose-built tools.
Wattics identified this challenge in 2011 and has since helped hundreds of energy managers, sustainability managers, and energy consultants worldwide discover, verify, and deliver energy- and cost-savings opportunities in their organizations, making measurable progress toward decarbonization.
鈥淥ur mission is to empower energy and sustainability leaders with actionable data to manage consumption, reduce their carbon footprint, and drive savings,鈥� said Tom Patterson, CEO, EnergyCAP.
鈥淲attics fits perfectly into our product vision by expanding our platform to include the end-to-end, real-time building- and device-level interval data and analytics necessary to improve energy efficiency and accelerate decarbonization. EnergyCAP and Wattics together become the ideal solution to support and validate the entire customer journey to net-zero.鈥�
Dr Antonio Ruzzelli, CEO and founder, Wattics said, 鈥淲e are so proud and thrilled to be joining forces with EnergyCAP. It is the coronation of a journey that started in 51黑料 over ten years ago, which now has a global footprint in over fifty-five countries. With EnergyCAP, we have a huge opportunity to dramatically accelerate our mission, allowing companies to mitigate climate change by purposefully managing their carbon footprint.鈥�
For over forty years, EnergyCAP has helped over 10,000 energy and sustainability leaders across government, education, and commercial sectors streamline energy management, utility bill accounting, and sustainability reporting. EnergyCAP鈥檚 financial-grade energy data analytics platform and tools make it the leading energy and sustainability ERP platform on the market today.

Customers use Wattics to centralize monitoring, identify energy waste and anomalies, trigger real-time notifications, create energy calculations, measure and verify projects, create energy reports, monitor indoor air quality, and more.
EnergyCAP is strategically and financially backed by Resurgens Technology Partners.
鈥淎s we worked to identify growth opportunities for EnergyCAP, Wattics stood out as a platform that will enable the company to drive accelerated growth, integrating its product roadmap, expanding product breadth, and executing cross-selling initiatives,鈥� said Resurgens Managing Director Fred Sturgis.
He added, 鈥淪ustainability and energy conservation have become increasingly integral to business operations. We are excited to invest deeper into the space and support EnergyCAP customers as they reduce their carbon footprint.鈥�
