Vistra Corp.
Vistra sells power at both ends of the wire: a sprawling fleet makes the electricity, while familiar retail brands sell it to nearly 5 million customers. The result is a revealing bet on what the American grid needs next - nuclear endurance, gas flexibility, batteries, and a great deal more demand.
Neara
Neara is a Sydney-founded software company that builds physics-enabled digital twins of utility networks. By combining LiDAR, satellite imagery, sensor data, AI and engineering-grade physics simulation, it creates geometrically accurate 3D replicas of power grids so utilities can model how their assets behave under real-world stress - wildfires, floods, storms, heat and rising demand. The platform lets operators find spare grid capacity, mitigate risk, plan maintenance and connect renewables faster, often replacing months of manual field inspection with analysis that runs in minutes. In February 2026 Neara raised an AUD $90 million Series D, reaching a roughly AUD $1.1 billion valuation to become one of Australia's newest unicorns.
