Grid congestion & virtual capacity

The grid is full.Your business keeps growing.

No years on a waiting list. No steep peak penalties. Expand and electrify today using the grid connection you already have.

The stakes

Grid congestion shouldn't dictate your growth.

The structural shortage of physical grid capacity acts as a hard brake on your company's expansion. As your portfolio of sites grows, energy flows become increasingly complex, making centralized, reliable oversight nearly impossible.

Ultimately, you bear the financial burden of this uncertainty—unless you leverage virtual capacity to take back proactive control.

The solution

More power from the exact same cable.

We unlock hidden headroom within your current connection in three distinct ways, completely eliminating the need for physical grid reinforcement.

Peak shaving

When your consumption approaches the contract limit, your Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) discharges within milliseconds to shave the peak. Your main fuse remains strictly protected, and capacity penalties become a thing of the past.

  • Your connection monitored second by second
  • Millisecond response times via your battery
  • Never exceed your contracted capacity again

Flexible consumers shift by a few minutes; the 07:00 peaks no longer coincide.

Load balancing

EV chargers, heavy machinery, and climate control systems often peak at the exact same moment. Evogrid dynamically distributes available power, intelligently shifting flexible consumers by just a few minutes—without ever disrupting your core processes.

  • Power distributed dynamically across your assets
  • Flexible loads shifted with zero operational impact
  • Connect more equipment to the same grid connection

Storage and control free up extra usable power, even beyond the contract limit.

Virtual capacity

By combining energy storage with smart control, you create extra usable power behind the meter: virtual capacity. Paired with smart connection management, you extract the absolute maximum from the transport capacity of your (shared) grid connection.

  • Expand or electrify immediately, without grid upgrades
  • Intelligent management for shared grid connections
  • Turn your connection into room for growth, not a bottleneck

Who it's for

Growing companies on constrained connections

Businesses ready to expand operations or electrify their fleets, but blocked by strict contract limits or the grid operator's multi-year waiting list.

Energy-intensive sites

Facilities operating heavy machinery, fast-charging plazas, or industrial heat pumps, where simultaneous peaks constantly threaten the contracted capacity limits.

How it works

The intelligence behind the platform.

  1. 01

    Data integration

    We continuously aggregate your consumption, generation, and storage data, enriching it with external variables like weather forecasts and live prices on the EPEX day-ahead and imbalance markets.

  2. 02

    Anticipation

    Using historical patterns and AI forecasting, the platform calculates your expected peak loads hours and days in advance—long before you even approach your contract limit.

  3. 03

    Strategic trade-off

    The system autonomously determines the safest and most profitable action: consume energy locally, store it in the battery, or offer flexibility to the market via redispatch platforms (like GOPACS).

  4. 04

    Continuous execution

    The platform adjusts your assets in real time, strictly keeping your total load within contracted capacity at all times. Peak penalties simply never occur.

What it delivers

The concrete impact on your business.
