When Yale University reported recently that anxiety over the
future of the planet’s climate system is rising significantly in the United
States (http://ibn.fm/0eRLa),
the Ivy League institution created a metric for the psychological consequences
of sustained changes in regional weather patterns and the media reports about
them. While climate change is driving a growing sense of “climate grief” (http://ibn.fm/ANW08)
characterized by “a number of different emotions, including fear, anger,
feelings of powerlessness, or exhaustion,” for many the global trend is
spurring a call to action, as exemplified by the smart utilities management
solutions offered by disruptive digital tech company Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:
KNR) (FSE: 1K8).
Kontrol Energy is a disciplined, vertically oriented company
devoting its strong merger and acquisition drive to the pursuit of better
planetary conditions – supporting the concept of a world that will still be
livable during coming generations by helping building managers reduce their
greenhouse gas emissions and increase their awareness of their own ecological
impact.
The company’s profile cites the Environmental and Energy
Study Institute in noting that buildings contribute up to 40 percent of annual
greenhouse gas emissions (http://ibn.fm/g50Ab),
highlighting the fact that climate impact is not merely a fossil fuel-powered
automotive industry issue. Kontrol is building a suite of Internet of Things
(IOT) devices that utilize modern technological connectivity to better “control”
energy use outcomes in the buildings where we all live and work.
The company’s software allows building managers to tie into
existing automated building technology or add components, as needed, and
thereby generate data on HVAC systems and utilities that can be monitored and
recorded in real time. Kontrol’s tier one data center processes two billion
data points per year, utilizing artificial intelligence to analyze and
troubleshoot building issues.
Kontrol’s Software as a Service (SaaS) model allows remote
devices to be easily monitored and controlled by facilities managers through
mobile smartphones and tablets. The company has collected and processed
more than 15 billion data records during the past decade to serve hundreds of
buildings.
Kontrol’s last quarterly earnings report showed strong
revenue growth of 35 percent over the previous year (http://ibn.fm/5M2l5).
“In less than 2 years we have grown our revenue run rate
from $1.8 Million to $16 Million,” CEO Paul Ghezzi stated in the company’s
quarterly announcement. “Kontrol is delivering on our stated goals and
objectives and we seek to continue our strong growth through further accretive
acquisitions and the expansion of our smart energy technologies. In 2019 we
anticipate being cash flow positive based on our current run rate of $16
million in revenue.”
The company has also recently added two contracts with
licensed producers in Canada’s cannabis sector to provide energy efficiency
that’s crucial to the booming industry. It is also finalizing the acquisition
of Ontario-based emissions integrator CEM Specialties Inc.
“In 2019 we will be focused on completing up to two
accretive acquisitions and accelerating our existing recurring SaaS revenues,”
Ghezzi stated. “As the broader market becomes more aware of our ability to
scale our recurring revenues and our overall growth rates, we believe our
shareholders will be rewarded.”
Energy efficiency is expected to be a multi-trillion-dollar
industry during coming years with a number of value segments that include
energy retrofits ($71.4 billion), distributed generation ($179.9 billion),
energy analytics ($33.5 billion) and greenhouse gas/carbon measurement and
reduction ($1.2 trillion).
