Today’s conversation is with Brad Anderson, founder, president & CEO of Solarc, Inc.
March 22nd, 2010 Gary Vasey SolArc today announced that Eco-Energy, an end-to-end midstream alternative energy company founded in 1990 to fill the significant void in the transportation and distribution sector of the alternative energy industry, had selected SolArc’s RightAngle application suite.

March 12th, 2010 Gary Vasey Last week I attended the SolArc meeting in London along with my colleagues Patrick Reames and David Steele. I was honoured to present the keynote address to the meeting which was extremely well organized and attended.
Brad Anderson, CEO of SolArc, provided an update on SolArc and its activities and future plans in the morning. The company had experienced around 20% growth in 2009 almost half of which was in Europe. around two thirds of that revenue growth originated from new license sales. A key area of Brad’s presentation dealt with technology and I was intrigued to discover that Solarc is a very innovative company when it comes to technology. Not only is its SOA/ .Net migration almost complete but we saw demonstrations after lunch of a variety of initiatives that included an iPhone application for trading that was fully integrated with RightAngle, some very innovative visualization tools being utilized in various areas of the application to assist schedulers and other users and two applications developed using the Microsoft surface technology. In fact, I will go as far as saying on the basis of what we saw demonstrated, SolArc are the most innovative vendor right now with respect to utilization of new technologies.
