A future-oriented, digital optimization platform for intraday trading of electricity and gas
Automated Intraday Trades
ESFORIN SE was founded in 2014 as a European company by Christian Hövelhaus (CEO) and Christoph Gardlo (COO). Our goal was and is to offer energy solutions and services, for example the so-called demand-side management (DSM) for the marketing of energy flexibilities for industrial and major customers - via a completely automated optimization and service platform. ESFORIN thus actively contributes to the energy transition. Our vision is to establish a leading digitalized and innovative marketplace for intraday trading of electricity and gas, especially for short-term energy optimization in the European markets, where our customers can benefit from our products.
With flexibility marketing in the electricity sector, we are already enabling numerous customers to participate in continuous intraday trading with their flexibility in production or power generation. Thus, they actively participate in the stabilization of the electricity grid. ESFORIN solutions allow industrial companies to adapt their power flexibility to price signals on the intraday market. Such price signals indicate an imbalance in the power grid - the ESFORIN algorithms react to it. In this way, ESFORIN customers make a decisive contribution to the energy transition and at the same time they take the opportunity to reduce their energy costs.
In recent years, ESFORIN has developed more than 50 individualized trading algorithms for various assets and has built up enormous expertise in both algorithmic intraday trading of electricity and algorithmic intraday trading of gas. As a leading provider in the field of flexibility marketing in the electricity sector and one of the most innovative companies in the flexibility marketing of gas, ESFORIN is now active in Germany, Austria, Great Britain and the Netherlands. We are one of the leading and growing players in the European energy market.

Focus on flexibility
Experience has shown that most biogas plant operators have still set themselves up for continuous operation. From the point of view of the energy industry, electricity from biogas could be a much better supplement to the erratic infeed from sun and wind. A demand-oriented infeed to cover the residual load would then be the actual purpose of the electricity produced from biogas.
