Energy-Storage.news: Flexa was founded in 2024 by AI-based battery optimiser Entrix and renewable energy services provider Enpal. Can you talk me through the founding of the company, your background, and how you came to be co-CEO? Fabian Fürst: It was a mix between Entrix and Enpal recognising an opportunity for decentralised assets. Entrix does grid-scale optimisation, and they saw that the German market is actually much more decentralised than grid-scale. They wanted to tap into that market. Enpal, at that time, had the biggest homogeneous asset base in terms of decentralised assets—it’s an installer for rooftop solar, home storage, heat pumps, etc. For each of its assets, it already had its HEMS (home energy management system) installed, so all these assets are connected and fairly easily accessible. If you want to build a company in this space, you need initial scale to prove your technology works rather than going from pilot to pilot. That’s what Enpal gave us. I was working at McKinsey at the time, purely on energy. I’d started a few companies before and wanted to focus on energy because I see it as a civilizational problem that can actually be solved in the next couple of decades...

Greenvolt Power has inaugurated a 200MW/800MWh BESS project in northeastern Poland, which energy trader Entrix will optimise.

Für 70 Prozent des erzeugten Solarstroms aus dem Photovoltaik-Kraftwerk gibt es einen PPA. Die restlichen Mengen will Maxsolar direkt an der Börse vermarkten.

Flower and ENGIE sign a 7-year virtual toll for 126MW in Germany, while Entrix wins optimisation rights for DRI's 133MW Polish BESS.

Für 70 Prozent des erzeugten Solarstroms aus dem Photovoltaik-Kraftwerk gibt es einen PPA. Die restlichen Mengen will Maxsolar direkt an der Börse vermarkten. Zudem hat das Unternehmen mit Entrix eine Vereinbarung zur Vermarktung seines netzdienlichen Speichers in Winterschneidbach mit 100 Megawattstunden Kapazität geschlossen.

Das Projekt „Schloen“ in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern besteht aus Photovoltaik-Kraftwerk, 4-Stunden-Speicher und Ladeinfrastruktur. Es soll noch in diesem Jahr in Betrieb gehen.

Germany's first "grey" co-location solar-and-storage installation pairs a 5.8 MW PV array with a 6.35 MW battery that can charge from both renewable generation and the electricity grid.

Das Kraftwerk besteht aus einer Photovoltaik-Anlage mit 5,8 Megawatt und einem Batteriespeicher mit 6,35 Megawatt, die an einem gemeinsamen Netzanschlusspunkt angeschlossen sind. Zudem gibt es mit DB Energie ein Power Storage Agreement mit einer Laufzeit von zehn Jahren.
