A green future made by many

Cheap and green energy is a joint effort with a big role for medium and large companies. They reduce their own risk by investing in the production and storage of energy, turn their demand flexible, and trade their surplus on the energy market. CIOC amplifies your return-on-energy potential through local AI that optimizes your storage, production and consumption in function of the energy markets that you participate in

About us

We are a team of industry experts from Imec, DEME and Capgemini, commited to changing Europe's power competitiveness for the better.

We leverage the learnings from transition and scarcity problems in other sectors to the European B2B energy sector. We depart from the single question: How can we reduce costs and price volatility for enterprises by taking grid limitations as a given?

Well... thats where flexibility management comes in. Don't ask what the electricity grid can do for you. Ask what you can do for the electricity grid!

Our vision

Drive the decarbonization of Europe by activating energy flexibility of medium and large companiese for you!

Change is the only constant, and that's particularly true for the green transition. Electricity production will be volatile and flexibility will be needed - if not, prices will be volatile too. Renewable energy comes with production variability and there are no supply side solutions that can be delivered timely and cost effectively. Currently, this is causing EU energy prices to be 2-4x as high as in China or USA. We urgently need to curb this so that the backbone of the European economy can preserve its competitiveness.

We believe that the green future will be made by many and reverse engineer electricity consumption. Medium and large companies have a pivotal role. As these existing energy grids are already designed to supply these heavy users, everything is already in place to let surplus electricity flow back to the grid when prices are high. If they reduce grid dependency by taking energy off the grid when prices are low and storing it locally, they can make money by helping with the green transition: smart loading reduces the cost of electricity for the company, but trading surplus energy also contributes to grid balance and lower prices in the energy market.

CIOC simplifies energy flexibility by offering superior energy steering. We are designed as an advanced solution for companies with expertise in the technical and sourcing side of energy. Yet, we can also help you accelerate your transition as a neutral partner in a complex industry. We see what works and what doesnt, and are happy to support, invest and operate infrastructure for you!
