Who are we?
Varco Energy is a pioneering UK-based battery storage asset owner and operator, backed by Adaptogen Capital’s specialist BESS investment fund.
Our mission is to drive the energy transition toward a net-zero future by building flexible, grid-scale energy storage solutions.
About us
Why does the grid need battery storage?
Bridging Renewables & Grid Stability
As demand for renewable power grows, so does the need for flexible infrastructure. Varco’s portfolio helps integrate intermittent wind and solar into the electricity system while delivering grid-balancing and frequency services
Strategic Partnerships for Impact
We collaborate with leading OEMs and contractors such as GE Vernova, Fluence, and Ethical Power to deliver resilient, local installations. Our NatWest-backed £58m financing package has enabled the rapid rollout of our first utility-scale projects, with several already entering construction or operation.
Scaling for a Zero-Carbon Future
Varco has a 250MW BESS portfolio operating or in construction, with a further 275MW in development. Varco Energy is at the forefront of the UK’s battery storage expansion. By deploying flexibility services and load-shifting capacity, we make renewable energy more accessible and affordable for all consumers.
