About Vela Energy
Summary
Vela Energy builds AI agents that run the engineering, procurement, and interconnection workflows for utility-scale power projects. It ingests utility studies, electrical drawings, equipment specs, procurement records, and construction schedules into a unified project model, then uses agents to evaluate configurations, match equipment to specs, prepare interconnection submissions, and propagate the impact of any change across documents, costs, and schedules. Developers and EPC teams replace manual cross-discipline coordination with a continuously updated view of what can be energized, when, and under which constraints.
Go-to-market
Buyers are project owners and EPC delivery teams on large power projects; they access Vela through a booked demo and a shared project workspace scoped to each team's role.
