Why we do this
We have to go green
Flexible assets (batteries, EVs, heat pumps, …) and processes (pumping, stirring, chemical reactions, …) can help to achieve the necessary supply-demand matching.
However, we will not turn flexible assets or processes on and off by hand.
Businesses who own and/or operate flexible assets need intelligent software to automate this. They need it at the scale you would expect ― massive.
And: controlling your flexibility is going to be good business! Savings between 20 and 30% are possible.
Match green energy with demand
To bring green energy and its consumption together. There are two ways this can work:
- Either, we shift the time of consumption to the times when the sun is shining and the wind is blowing.
- Or, we move the green energy to the times of consumption, via storage.
In both cases, the optimal timing makes the difference, in costs and CO₂ savings.
Innovate openly & get going
The bottleneck we target: Writing software with AI components is expensive.
Open source software creates tremendous value in win-win outcomes. It also helps to spread innovation at a faster rate. That is precisely what we need to fight climate change effectively.
If energy management software like FlexMeasures is open source, stakeholders can start collaborating without solving their make-or-buy decision first, and do so in transparent fashion.
