Guest bio: JC Kneale is a visionary entrepreneur who revolutionized the energy market in the late 90s. With a background in building power plants, JC recognized the need for transparent prices and timely information in the industry. He took it upon himself to digitize and democratize the market, making prices accessible to as many people as possible. Starting from scratch, JC initially funded the project himself, managing the operation from his checkbook. Beta versions were rolled out to selected US electricity and natural gas customers as the project gained momentum. The overwhelmingly positive response led to exponential growth for the business. With the launch taking place in March, JC and his small team quickly expanded their customer base and established a prominent presence in the market. JC's forward-thinking approach and dedication to transparency have forever transformed the energy industry, earning him a reputation as an influential figure.
