Fortum Optimizer
The future of energy management for businesses
Energy has become a key strategic issue for a growing number of companies. The electrification of industry, rising energy costs and demands for sustainability means that the need for control, flexibility and expertise has never been greater. That is why Fortum is now launching Fortum Optimizer – a new service that helps companies understand the potential of their current and future electricity use, invest in the right technology to maximize value and optimize their electricity use in real time with smart control.
With Fortum Optimizer your company gets:
A thrustworthy energy partner with a strong brand and a long experience within the energy market
An energy partner for all of your energy needs - everything gathered on the same invoice
A one-stop shop for flexibility and optimization, no matter where you are on your electrification journey
How does Fortum Optimizer work?
Making sense of energy opportunities – Optimizer’s pre-study helps you understand which energy infrastructure is most suitable based on your current and future business needs.
Make investment decisions with confidence – A tailored pre-study estimates the business potential for the company, so that you can understand the costs required (necessary capital investments) and the value that will be created.
Secure lower energy costs and reduced exposure to volatile prices – The Optimizer platform coordinates and controls your flexible energy assets, shifts the load to cheaper hours and cuts power peaks to reduce grid charges.
Increase revenue from your flexible energy assets – Optimizer trades your company's flexible energy assets on various flexibility markets to create additional revenue streams.
Increased self-sufficiency with energy produced from low carbon sources – Local electricity production – for example from solar cells – can, in combination with batteries, contribute to a higher degree of self-sufficiency.
Which companies can use Fortum Optimizer?
Fortum Optimizer is for companies where electricity plays a significant role in their operations, and who want to have better control over it.
Companies that should use Fortum Optimizer are companies that...
electrify their processes.
have challenges with volatile electricity prices.
have invested in electricity production, like wind and solar, and want to improve profitability.
have intensive electricity consumption, high power peaks, and/or lack of power in the electricity grid.
have invested in flexible energy assets and want to optimize them through Fortum.
What does the service consist of?
The service is built on three interacting parts:
First, Fortum helps you analyze your company's energy needs and identify the potential in, for example, solar energy or battery storage. It's about creating clear business cases that show what different investments actually mean - both financially and operationally.
Then, we make sure that the right technology is in place. Through our network of partners, you can get help investing in and installing solar panels, batteries or other equipment required to create a flexible system that suits your needs and wishes.
But it's in the third part that Fortum Optimizer really shows its strength: the daily operation and real-time optimization. By connecting energy assets, such as solar panels and batteries, to our optimization platform, you can benefit from advanced logic that automatically switches between self-production, storage and purchasing - all to reduce costs and risks linked to the volatility of electricity prices and create new revenue streams from flexibility markets.
