History
SolArc was founded in 1991, by three Andersen Consulting (now Accenture) colleagues offering consulting services and customized software solutions to the energy and insurance industries. In 1994, SolArc revolutionized the liquid hydrocarbon trading industry with SolArc RightAngle, which integrated trading, scheduling, accounting and risk management. Within four years, more than 71% of the natural gas liquids (NGL) market was traded using SolArc RightAngle.
Based on the rapid adoption and success of its NGL solution, SolArc began building its Supply and Trade Management vision to serve all energy commodities from a single, unified platform. The company created an entirely new version of SolArc RightAngle, launched in 2000.
The new SolArc RightAngle features rich functionality and a scalable architecture capable of supporting multiple energy commodity classes from a single platform with the same depth and granularity as the initial solution served the majority of the NGL trade marketplace.
Currently coal, crude oil, refined products, fuels, natural gas liquids and natural gas are traded from a single SolArc solution.
