Friday, October 27th, represented yet another momentous occasion for our company, as we were awarded, for the second time in a row, the ‘Oscar’ of business excellence that recognizes Restart Energy as Western Romania’s largest energy trading company at the Business Excellence Gala. As stated, this is the second time that we have been honored with this award, having also been the recipient of the same award last year, as an acknowledgment for the exponential growth our company had undergone during 2016.

The Business Excellence Gala is an event that holds significant importance in redirecting the spotlight to business representatives, supported by local leaders, academic, and artistic personalities, rewarding them for their hard work and contributions to society. Taking place at the Regional Business Center (“Centrul Regional de Afaceri”), Timișoara, the business gala has developed a tradition that dates back a quarter of a century; with the premiere being in 1993.

The atmosphere was pleasant, brimming with anticipation, and the celebration lifted the spirits of participants and hosts alike, while maintaining the elegance one has come to expect from such a gala, bearing the mark of the Timis Industry, Agriculture, and Commerce Chamber.

Not only was last week’s Excellence Gala marked by the 25th anniversary of the event, but it also celebrated 100 years since Romania’s Great Union of 1918 — making for a patriotic dual motif by offering artistic performances from top Romanian Folklore singer Tinu Verzeșeanu, to commemorate Romania’s inception as a unified state.

This year’s winners were selected from a pool of 9,169 companies deemed eligible for the contest — themselves picked from 30,071 possible contending companies. This represented an increase of 7.1% over the past year’s eligible companies, showing the ever-growing nature of the local economy as well as the event’s significance.

On behalf of Restart Energy, our very own CFO Cristian Bogdan has attended this year’s exquisite event, accepting First Prize for the largest energy company in Romania’s Western Region yet again. This achievement was possible due to our disruptive franchising model that enables anyone become a RED franchise owner and has helped us grow by 1,700% since the company’s inception — becoming the fastest growing private energy company within the EU.

As we are honored and humbled by this achievement, we vow to continue our hard work towards decentralizing the energy sector with a new found passion, knowing that our efforts are not only acknowledged but rewarded. We take pride in revolutionizing the energy market and becoming not only the number one supplier in our local market, but eventually also across multiple countries and continents! We most certainly take great comfort in the fact that the fruits of our labor shall be tasted by our respectable community and all those who desire freedom and quality in their energy services.

About Restart Energy

Restart Energy Democracy (RED) is a blockchain-powered platform, backed by Restart Energy — a European energy provider with 20 million USD in revenues. The company was built with a vision to democratize the energy sector and quash the dominance of legacy monopolies in the energy world. The company’s credentials include a customer base of 27,000 household and 3,000 corporate clients, expanding at more than 2,000 clients per month (5,000 new customers in the first two months of 2018), and its impressive growth: 1,700% from 2015 until today.

Restart Energy is developing the world’s first peer-to-peer, fully decentralized energy transfer platform allowing users to send and receive energy worldwide, based on its proprietary virtual balancing system, that uses A.I., Big Data, and IoT technologies. The RED ecosystem is comprised of the RED-Platform, RED-Franchise, and MWAT Tokens.

The RED-Franchise is the first power retail franchise to simplify and allow any company or entrepreneur to operate their own power utility enterprise, enabling them to start selling energy in more than 35 deregulated energy markets globally.

MWAT tokens are crypto-tokens that enable the buying and selling of up to 1 MWh of electricity per month on the RED-Platform Software and will facilitate the development of affordable clean energy, through free-market practices. Upon completion of registration on the platform, an initial loyalty bonus of 0.11 kWh is applied. Producers send out monthly loyalty bonuses through the RED Loyalty System, totaling 1–5% of traded on-grid energy in exchange for access to the RED Platform.

Importantly, it should be noted that potential franchise partners will need to own (this is not a form of payment to us) a certain number of MWAT tokens, in order to qualify for our various franchise tiers — the secret to our award-winning growth as a business!
