An industry rarely changes when it is comfortable with complexity. Miles Rice saw energy procurement as a system overdue for reinvention, not because it lacked effort, but because it lacked imagination. As Co-Chief Executive Officer of Energy CX, Rice has helped reframe how organizations understand, buy and manage energy by replacing opacity with intelligence and manual processes with automation.

Rice’s perspective was shaped early through hands-on problem solving. Long before Energy CX existed, he gravitated toward inefficiencies others overlooked, building solutions that required both creativity and discipline. Experiences across entrepreneurship, real estate and financial markets sharpened his instincts around data, risk and timing. Those chapters formed a consistent pattern: Identify what is broken, then build something fundamentally better.

That mindset guided the creation of Energy CX. What began as a boutique brokerage evolved into a technology-driven platform designed to give customers clarity and control. Rice challenged a sector long dominated by spreadsheets and fragmented information, introducing a digital operating system that delivers real-time insight, predictive intelligence and adaptive buying strategies. By blending deep analytics with intuitive design, Energy CX made complex energy decisions accessible without sacrificing sophistication.

Growth followed trust. Leading organizations across commercial real estate and other asset-intensive sectors adopted the platform because it replaced uncertainty with confidence. Energy CX became known not simply for negotiating supply but for helping customers understand volatility, manage exposure and act decisively as markets shift. What was once a service relationship transformed into a strategic partnership built on transparency and speed.

Rice’s leadership approach centers on leverage rather than labor. He believes the future of work belongs to teams that amplify human judgment through automation and data. At Energy CX, every function is designed around efficiency and intelligence, allowing people to focus on strategy, creativity and relationships. Technology carries the operational weight so teams can concentrate on higher-order thinking that drives innovation.

Continuous improvement is woven into the culture Rice has helped build. Progress is measured through refinement rather than perfection, with every product iteration and workflow viewed as an opportunity to improve. Learning moves quickly across teams, supported by investment in data fluency, experimentation and cross-functional collaboration. Curiosity is not only encouraged but expected.

Rice draws energy from momentum itself. Seeing ideas mature into tools that reshape customer behavior reinforces purpose across the organization. He remains close to the work, reviewing concepts, exploring new technologies and challenging assumptions alongside his team. That proximity keeps ambition grounded and execution sharp.

Recognition as a Titan 100 Honoree reflects Rice’s influence as a leader who applied venture-scale thinking to one of the least digitized industries and proved it could transform. Through Energy CX, he continues redefining how energy is bought and managed, showing that when imagination leads and systems follow, even entrenched markets can be rebuilt for the better.
