Over ons
Sympower was founded in 2015 with the mission to enable the transition to a fully renewable energy system. We achieve this by unlocking the flexibility of electric assets across industries, from steel smelting to solar panels, electric vehicles to paper production, and maximising the value of this flexibility across energy markets. When the grid is out of balance, we temporarily adjust the power of machines and processes through our advanced and automated demand response capabilities. Flexibility is a vital component of a fully renewable energy system and by providing non-intrusive software solutions, we allow our customers to enhance the value of their electrical assets. We empower traditional industries to become more sustainable and enable the shift from fossil fuels to renewables.

Great news for the energy sector - again! "Wind and solar energy overtake fossil fuels to provide 30% of EU electricity." - The Guardian ⚡ According to the report published by Ember, wind and #solar panels surpassed fossil fuels and generated 30% of the EU's electricity in the first half of 2024. Overall, 13 EU countries generated more electricity from #renewables than fossil fuels. Ember's report also found that, compared to the first half of 2023, in 2024, the EU burned 24% less coal and 14% less gas. Consequently, emissions also fell by 1/3 compared to the first half of 2022. 🙌 "If member states can keep momentum up on wind and solar deployment then freedom from fossil power reliance will truly start to come into view." - Chris Rosslowe, Senior Energy & Climate Analyst, Ember The renewable revolution continues, and as always, when talking about such milestones, it is essential to highlight the need for an increase in the system's flexibility. Demand-side flexibility supports a cleaner and more robust electricity system and helps reduce end-consumer costs. 👉 Learn more about DSF: https://lnkd.in/eGG-MYfW 👉 Source: https://lnkd.in/gc5h8WA4 #EnergyTransition #DemandResponse

⚡ ”This partnership works incredibly well, partly because Sympower and Bixia’s teams always have the customers’ best interest in mind. Our customers deeply appreciate this joint expertise, and many as a result want to increase their demand-side flexibility participation by connecting more assets or other factories. In fact, one of the sawmills we work with, which started by connecting just three mills, is now looking into integrating demand response to other sites.” - Eric Constantien, Head of Sales, Bixia AB 👉 Read the full case study: https://lnkd.in/gRCGd5yH #DemandResponse #Innovation #EnergyTransition

Monday #DemandResponse Myth Busters! 👻⚡ Demand response programs offer businesses a chance to earn money by adjusting energy use during peak hours. However, some myths still circulate. Let's explore the reality: ❌ The Return on Investment Isn’t Worth It ✅ Wrong! Earning revenue with DR occurs in two forms: 1. Payment for availability, where businesses are compensated for making their assets available even if they are not activated. 2. Payment for activation, in which they are compensated when their assets are active for demand response. When working with the right flexibility service provider (Sympower 😉) you can rest assured that you’re getting the maximum value for your participation! 👉 Learn more about revenue generation & demand response: https://lnkd.in/euT9aW5s #EnergyTransition #EnergyFlexibility

"What I find very powerful with Demand Response is that it uses the already existing infrastructure. It is way more cost-efficient than building new batteries or power plants - even though we need both. Demand Response can be an enabler of electrification. When you look at the cost of producing heat with a gas boiler, it's around 86 Euros per MWh. With an e-boiler, it's around 120 Euros per MWh, but when you consider the revenues coming from flexibility, the effective cost for the e-boiler goes down to 80 Euros per MWh." - Olivia S., Strategy & Innovation Director, Sympower 👉 Read more about electric boilers & #DemandResponse: https://lnkd.in/evC66YQv #Electrification #EnergyTransition

Monday #DemandResponse Myth Busters! 👻 ⚡ Demand response programs offer businesses a chance to earn money by adjusting energy use during peak hours (how awesome is that?!). However, myths still persist about it. Let's explore the reality: ❌ Myth: Plant Managers Lose Control Over Their Machinery ✅ The Reality: Demand response experts understand business production cycles. They work closely with plant managers and energy teams to plan demand response activations strategically, minimise disruptions, and maximise revenues from demand response. 👉 Learn more about demand response: https://lnkd.in/eScCZtkA #EnergyTransition #EnergyFlexibility
