Flexibility marketing
Reduce costs and save CO2 with flexibility marketing
Renewable energies bring opportunities and challenges: Their volatility leads to price fluctuations and grid loads. The solution? Flexibility! Controllable loads and generation, combined with fully automated flexibility marketing, are the key to stable grids, lower costs and a successful energy transition.
Fully automated flexibility marketing from intraday to balancing energy
The European energy markets will experience a dynamic development in 2024 and 2025: from volatile market phases with negative and extremely high prices through to regulatory changesin Germany, for example, by the Federal Network Agency with Redispatch 2.0.Redispatch 2.0 in Germany is intended to regulate how the electricity grid remains stable in the event of bottlenecks. To this end, electricity producers can be obliged to adjust their production at short notice. Countries such as France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, the UK, Finland and Sweden are experiencing similar processes.
Set parallel Trends such as self-generated electricity and 'all-electric' new economic potential - for example through fuel switch Switching gas heaters to electric heating and power-to-heat plants or electrolysis under the new conditions of the EU's revised Renewable Energy Directive in the intraday market or balancing energy.
For companies, flexibility usually begins with questioning the "status quo". Which processes or plant components could be used differently than today and under what conditions? This subsequently has a lasting impact on energy purchasing: changing price patterns on the market, options such as PPAs Power Purchase Agreements or investments in new plant technology must be coordinated. With over 10 years of experience and over 2 GW of flexibility under Management, ESFORIN is your partner for developing the best strategies for electricity and gas markets - throughout Europe.
