Jason Beck

Founding Member, Zettawatts

Jason Beck is a Founding Member of Zettawatts, focused on connecting corporate clean-energy procurement with the development of new utility-scale wind and solar projects. He brings more than 15 years of experience across retail energy markets, clean-energy procurement, and renewable product innovation, including senior roles at Constellation, AEP Energy, and Source Power & Gas.

At Zettawatts, Jason helps companies and their suppliers translate decarbonization requirements into practical electricity procurement strategies. His work spans supplier engagement, procurement planning, and Additionality Renewable Energy Certificates (ARECs)—long-term commitments to purchase environmental attributes from projects under development, providing revenue that can support new renewable construction. Zettawatts’ SupplierCFE program helps Microsoft suppliers navigate clean-electricity requirements, evaluate procurement options, and move from planning and budgeting to purchasing and reporting.

Jason brings a commercial perspective to a challenge facing both renewable generators and large energy users: how to turn growing demand for clean electricity into commitments that help projects reach final investment decision. For developers and generators, the opportunity is to connect with corporate and supplier demand beyond traditional large-scale power purchase agreements. For data-center operators, compute providers, and sustainability leaders, the challenge is to align procurement decisions with customer expectations, Scope 2 and Scope 3 responsibilities, and the need for new generation.

His approach emphasizes clear standards, accessible contracting models, and practical execution—connecting what buyers can commit to with what developers need to build. Jason has spoken on Scope 3 and supplier clean-energy engagement at VERGE and serves on the board of the Energy Leadership Institute.
