Mackinnon Bruce International’s Post

It’s been nearly five months since I took a role on the front lines of the energy transition at Yotta Energy. While I certainly don’t regret anything I’ve done prior to this, I wish I’d made this jump sooner. The experience has given me a much greater appreciation for the obstacles lean teams have to overcome on a day-to-day basis to be successful. These wins, while objectively “small,” must be celebrated because the journey to disrupt the commercial and industrial solar market is hard - and hardware is HARD. Most importantly, I see how meaningful it can be as you work with great people to achieve those small wins. In the last several months this team has made amazing progress to commercialize our 2nd generation energy storage product, continued to gain sales traction in existing and new markets, and added critical team members to bolster our capabilities, and—in spite of the day to day challenges—we’re more motivated than ever. Here’s to many more small wins on a challenging journey. #energytransition #solar #batterystorage #outgrowstartup

Devon’s board has also expanded its share-repurchase authorization by 67% to $5 billion through mid-2026.
