About us
With our AIpowered fully automated optimization and trading platform for flexible energy assets from gridscale batteries to virtual power plants we ensure that energy is stored when it is abundant and released into the grid when it is needed. At the same time by actively trading electricity we counteract strong price fluctuations that green energies entail. Figuring out how storage provides the best value to the electricity grid and the highest returns to asset owners is how we accelerate the transition to a clean energy future.
