With our customer-specific quality management, you benefit from automated reports! This significantly simplifies operations and transparently highlights deficiencies, e.g., in data availability.

Software Updates

We constantly develop new product features that optimize marketing and benefit you! Your wishes are considered in our roadmap and implemented promptly.

Integration

We integrate the Flexibility Plant as a Virtual Power Plant into your processes and efficiently connect your IT infrastructure, ensuring seamless collaboration.

Initially, Energiekoppler provides you with your own instance of the Flexibility Plant as an SaaS solution, granting you exclusive and secure access to the aggregator. We implement data exchange between your IT systems (e.g., the Virtual Power Plant) using our first-class REST API or the classic remote control protocol IEC 60870-5-104. The integration of the Flexibility Plant into closed user groups is also possible. Need a different interface? We will integrate it for you!

We offer various ways to connect energy systems:

  1. Classic physical connection using swarmBOX if no remote control technology is installed on-site
  2. Remote control access to locally installed park controllers or remote control technology via various VPN technologies
  3. Connection to portals/virtual power plants from plant manufacturers such as Vestas, Enercon, or third parties.

A wide range of protocols and device specifications based on these are available for connecting energy systems. The range of supported devices is constantly being expanded and is completely free of charge for you.

Energiekoppler provides you with versatile access routes to the Flexibility Plant aggregator. With the REST API, you can retrieve live data, demand, feed-in, and flexibility forecasts, view availability information, and control your energy plants. Alternatively, the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol enables seamless integration into existing Virtual Power Plants. You can integrate both live data and forecasts directly into your trading systems or Virtual Power Plants using the REST API. If needed, we will also integrate your existing interfaces effortlessly.

Additionally, you have access to the user-friendly interface of the Flexibility Plant, which gives you a comprehensive overview of the operational status of your energy plants. With various authorization profiles, user access rights can be individually managed.

We provide the IT infrastructure necessary for the Flexibility Plant! The Flexibility Plant will operate redundantly and exclusively on data centers located in Germany. Various VPN technologies, such as OpenVPN or IPsec, are used for connecting to Virtual Power Plants or energy systems.

Collaboration

The primary goal of our collaboration is the creation of clear responsibilities. What does that look like for us? We gladly take on your responsibilities in relation to the technical connection of energy systems and the operation of the Flexibility Plant.

To generate revenue potential and avoid risks, the onboarding of energy systems into subsidized or unsubsidized direct marketing must happen promptly. Once you notify us of the systems to be connected, we work with the system operator’s remote control service provider to find the most cost-effective solution for connecting the systems. Using our IT tools, we always have an overview of your system connections and can keep you informed of the current status in a transparent manner.

If energy systems are not yet equipped with remote control technology, we take care of the connection. We install the swarmBOX as a white-label solution on location at the energy systems, ensuring data collection and remote control.

The smooth operation of the Flexibility Plant around the clock is essential for optimal marketing of energy plants. With Energiekoppler's 24/7 support, disruptions are quickly detected and resolved.

At Energiekoppler, your marketing success is important to us! We offer you customer-specific quality management, where the accuracy of forecasts and the reliability of shutdowns are analyzed using automatically generated reports. This helps identify systematic errors quickly and improve your marketing success.

With Energiekoppler, you benefit from the fact that your wishes for optimizing processes and marketing success are considered in product development.

Additionally, we constantly implement new protocols and device specifications to expand the supported device specifications—at no cost to you.
