We provide a robust, scalable, yet profitable cloud solution for optimizing your loads with respect to the energy markets. This involves:- Load forecasting and flexibility analysis- Aggregation and pooling of your assets into your own or our shared flex portfolio- Optimized sourcing on energy markets and schedule generation (optionally also on-site asset steering)- Analysis and deep insights (profit forecasts, real-time imbalance analysis, etc.)

München, By, De

Develop the e-mobility steered charging solution with optimized sourcing on energy spot markets:- ingest and persist live data from EV fleets over IoT channels- forecast consumption and flexibility- pooling and aggregation of energy and power flexibility over charge parks and fleets- organize optimized sourcing on energy markets- generate optimized disaggregation and dispatch charge profiles- generate schedules for charge sessions
