Stay in control
You decide which assets can be activated and when. We work closely with your teams to identify which equipment can be utilised and which can't, guaranteeing that we don't disturb your core processes.Start earning now
Most equipment can be used to balance the grid. We help you identify existing flexibility in your processes to maximise your profit while minimising interruptions.Build your ideal solution
The more you participate, the more you earn! Increase your revenue by adding more resources or joining additional energy markets.Demand response turns your energy into profit
Energy-intensive consumers earn additional revenue by temporarily adjusting their electricity consumption to keep the grid balanced and avoid blackouts.
Sympower enables companies to participate easily in demand response programmes by identifying flexibility potential in their current processes. We unlock the full potential of your equipment by monetising its flexibility in balancing markets and creating new revenue streams.
Can you participate in Demand Response?

Own production units
Existing buffer in processes
If your energy-intensive equipment doesn’t need to run at 100% all the time, then you have flexibility in your processes and can participate in demand response programmes.Reactive equipment
If some of your equipment can ramp up or down its energy consumption on short notice, you may be able to participate in demand response programmes. Our energy experts help you identify which equipment can be used to earn revenue.Own production units
If you have your own energy production or storage units on-site, such as a CHP, solar panels, or even batteries, you can use them to balance the grid.
Expertise in multiple industries
Agriculture
Manage the energy of your agricultural equipment, such as lights, pumps and CHP units. By optimising energy consumption with our tailored flexibility solutions, you can reduce costs while maintaining productivity.
Automotive
Utilise your energy flexibility in manufacturing processes like calendering and tyre recycling. By adjusting and optimising energy use based on demand, automotive manufacturers can reduce operational costs while meeting production targets.
Cement
Cement production requires substantial energy for heating processes. By leveraging flexibility in mills and CHP units, you can optimise operations and cut energy costs during peak times without disrupting production.
Chemicals
Utilise energy flexibility to manage the high energy demands of electrolysis, furnaces, and condensers. Our services allow chemical plants to adjust their energy needs, prioritising cost-efficiency and production targets.
Data centres
Due to their HPC systems and interruptible power supplies, data centres are heavy energy consumers. With our flexibility services, they can reduce energy costs and environmental impact without compromising on performance.
Energy companies
Energy providers can partner with us to expand their portfolio and offer flexibility services to their customers. This helps your customers manage energy consumption efficiently, reduce costs, and support grid stability. Together, we expand your offerings, integrating demand response services seamlessly into your portfolio.
Metallurgy
Unlock the flexibility potential of your energy-intensive equipment, like galvanised pots and furnaces. Our services ensure efficient operations while balancing energy consumption without compromising production quality.
Pulp & Paper
Flexibility is key in the pulp and paper industry, where energy is required for various equipment like compressors, crushers, and dryers. By optimising your energy consumption during peak demand periods, Our services help you reduce energy costs, create new revenue streams, and improve energy efficiency.
Solar & Wind
Renewable energy companies can utilise our flexibility services to maximise their plant potential by trading its production in energy markets or having it voluntarily curtailed.
Our flexibility services enable you to monetise surplus energy, avoid operational costs from low and negative prices, and comply with current and future legislation.

Our customers say

The whole process is very straightforward
“The whole process is very straightforward. Ahead of time, we agree with Sympower on a timeframe during which our assets could be activated. When it happens, the process operator will see on their interface that FCR is being activated, and the mills slow down. It’s clearly marked why the mills are slowing down, so no one thinks something is wrong and tries to correct it.”

This partnership works incredibly well
"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."
