Flower - Energizing tomorrow

We enable the energy system of tomorrow by combining pioneering technology with flexible assets, allowing clean energy to power society

The energy system of tomorrow relies on a high share of renewable energy production, and with that comes a new set of uncertainties. Grid owners, producers and consumers are all affected by these uncertainties, and enabling that system relies on stability in grid frequency, prices and volume. Combining and solving these problems is what we call flexibility.
