"Under high voltage" - An article worth reading in Focus magazine on how German start-ups are helping to save energy. For example, how ESFORIN optimizes power consumption and tado develops smart thermostats.

Our CEO Christian Hövelhaus was interviewed as an expert in WirtschaftsWoche on the topic of digitalisation in the power market and flexible electricity prices. For energy-intensive companies in particular, the price fluctuations on the power exchange offer opportunities.

Biogas Journal reports how flexible biogas plants can benefit from the high prices on the power exchange. ESFORIN was asked how additional revenue can be optimised.

We are "Direct marketer delivering in real time"! The "VisuFlex" project of the Agency for Renewable Resources (Fachagentur Nachwachsende Rohstoffe e.V.). (FNR) shows that flexibilised biogas plants can compensate for the fluctuating power generation of volatile energy producers.

via the EEG levy as an opportunity for flexibility marketing - more systems can now market flexibly.

"Every industrial company gets its own algorithm adapted to its electricity needs," Christian Hövelhaus told WirtschaftsWoche.

"How algorithms are driving the energy transition", recommended online article by Deutsche Welle about ESFORIN SE.

The company ESFORIN optimises electricity generation and consumption according to the price situation on intraday markets. While it initially focused on industrial customers, it now wants to increasingly target municipal utilities." Article worth reading in the ZfK

"Die Energiewende beschleunigen", recommendable report about ESFORIN's impact to enhance the energy transition in the newspaper WAZ.

"Several hundred megawatts of capacity are now in our portfolio and react, albeit quite differently, to changes in electricity prices at lightning speed," Christian Hövelhaus said in the report worth knowing in the Tagesspiegel.

"We are implementing the energy transition economically and in a way that serves the grid," says Christian Hövelhaus in an energate interview about ESFORIN SE and our flexibility marketing.

Be sure to listen: The C! podcast with Dr. Corinne Flick & Christian Hövelhaus: "From the energy crisis to the energy transition - how can we get there?".

We were live on site in Berlin at the ECOSUMMIT. Our CEO Christian Hövelhaus presented our company ESFORIN in a short pitch.

Worth reading article from Handelsblatt about us: Industrial plants can serve as a kind of storage for electricity from renewables. This should relieve the strain on grids and mitigate price extremes. One important player: ESFORIN.

Our COO Christoph Gardlo presented as an expert at the Tennet "Flexibility Dialogue" the opportunities and challenges of flexibilities in the power market. The presentation and dscussion are worth a look!

German article: "Deshalb habe ich mich auch an der ESFORIN SE beteiligt – ein Spezialist für Flexibilitätsvermarktung, ohne den meiner Meinung die Energiewende nicht gelingt. Das Unternehmen balanciert Angebot und Nachfrage am Strommarkt aus, was unsere Netze stabilisiert. Das wiederum vermeidet für die Industrie teure Blackouts." Christoph Ostermann in FOCUS Online

"Without us, the energy transition won't work - or will cost billions more." [...] The grids are groaning under the unpredictable wind and solar power. A conceivable solution that does not cost billions more: intelligent flexibility marketing.
