Energy2market GmbH
Energy2market GmbH (e2m), based in Leipzig, is one of Germany’s leading energy trading service providers as an aggregator and flexibility marketer. The company is part of the EDF Group and controls around 4,700 decentralised energy plants – most of them renewable – via its virtual power plant. More than 60 software developers and data analysts ensure the optimal management of these plants, even in highly dynamic markets. In this way, e2m ensures the best possible marketing for these plants and helps to integrate renewable energies into the electricity market of the future in an economically viable manner.
Renewable energies become predictable
Renewable energies are now almost on a par with electricity generation from conventional power plants. Thanks to 24/7 monitoring and data-driven control, renewables deliver electricity in line with market demand when it is needed. Green electricity becomes a successful model when supply and demand complement each other perfectly – and this is exactly where e2m comes in: reliable communication between all these decentralised producers – from stand-alone battery storage systems to biogas and offshore wind – and market requirements is the key factor.
Centralised control through networking
With its virtual power plant, Energy2market connects these players and enables centralised control similar to that of a large power plant. Through targeted feed-in management, e2m creates additional revenue opportunities for operators. Centralised control not only allows economies of scale to be exploited, but also significantly increases flexibility and cost-effectiveness – to the benefit of all involved.
Security of supply through data-driven control
INSYS icom provides the robust and reliable communication infrastructure for this: the interface ensures stable and secure connectivity for decentralised systems and enables automated, data-driven control. This is economically profitable for operators, means a secure supply for all of us and makes a real contribution to the energy transition.
