01 · Why Voltex

Alberta's market is like no other. Your software should be too.

Alberta's rules, data feeds and settlement processes are unique. Generic tools leave your team filling the gaps with spreadsheets and workarounds. We've spent years building software for Alberta producers, designed around how this market actually works. When the rules change, we understand what it means for your operations.

02 · Market change

The market is changing. Your systems need to keep up.

The Restructured Energy Market changes how participants submit offers, receive dispatches, and schedule outages. If your tools touch any of those, they'll need updates, and they'll need testing before go-live. We can assess what's affected, build the changes and support you through the transition.

03 · What we do

Build. Integrate. Secure. Support.

BuildCustom applications for market participation, plant operations, and reporting, designed around your processes rather than forcing you into someone else's.
IntegrateWe connect the pieces: AESO data feeds, participant submission APIs, plant historians and SCADA, SQL databases, and your business tools, so information flows without manual effort.
SecureNetworks, cloud and on-premises systems, and secure remote access to remote sites, managed by people who understand what's at stake.
SupportSoftware isn't finished at launch. Market rules change, APIs change, and your business changes. Our support agreements cover regular patching and updates to keep your systems current, with the same team that built them.

TestingFunctional, regression and integration testing so releases don't break the systems you depend on, whether we built them or not.
05 · How we work

A long-term partner, not a one-off project.

We start by understanding how your team works today. We build in stages so you see progress early, test thoroughly before anything goes live, and then stay on to support what we've built. Our clients stay with us. Every relationship we have is a long-term one.
