The Luxembourg-based energy provider and grid operator wanted to offer its customers the benefits of a digital energy supply. XENON acts as the backbone to their new digital solutions.
Electris is an electricity provider that supplies electricity to over 5,000 customers in Luxembourg. As a forerunner in the industry, they wanted to tap into new market potential by addressing customers' changing needs and offering them innovative digital energy services. This would allow both Electris and end users to benefit from lower costs and more holistic, integrated and sustainable energy systems.
Electris opted for gridX's XENON platform as the technical enabler for all future solutions along the entire energy value chain. As a manufacturer-independent communication gateway, the gridBox forms the basis for the integration of all distributed energy resources, enabling open yet secure interoperability between energy devices. Our XENON platform facilitates the rapid development and use of big data in the field of energy.
XENON is also being leveraged in the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology's (LIST) Combi-Cast project, in which Electris is involved. Our platform will be used to improve and further develop forecasting models for the prediction of short-term photovoltaic output. To achieve this, gridBoxes are installed directly in customers' homes to enable smart household energy flows.
The project applies gridX technology to a completely new use case and highlights the flexibility of our technology stack. It also shows how XENON enables companies to realize ambitious digital projects. Eventually, Combi-Cast will provide the groundwork for an intelligent energy management system that enables future-oriented smart business models in energy.
Austrian Post is the leading logistics and postal service provider in the country. In order to switch to a fully electric fleet by 2030, they needed the corresponding charging infrastructure, as well as a smart energy management system to make it feasible.
Energieversorgung Mittelrhein (evm), together with greenblocks and gridX, has achieved a major milestone in intelligent energy management. Within just two months from project start, the home energy management system (HEMS) liya was successfully deployed in the first households in Koblenz. This marks the starting point for scaling the technology to even more evm customers.
The solution is based on gridX’s hybrid energy management system XENON, while evm and greenblocks jointly handle the go-to-market setup, technical commissioning, tailored sales training and ongoing operational support. evm, supported by its in-house installer division evm Service GmbH, installs the systems directly on-site and provides personal customer support. Even before the official market launch, customers were introduced to the new solution in dedicated informational events, and the sales team was thoroughly trained. A custom-built savings calculator enables consultants to showcase the substantial financial benefits already during the first conversation.
