About us

At simpl.energy we’re on a mission to accelerate decarbonisation through electrification despite existing limitations of our electricity grids. We do so by providing insights into our customers' power peaks and by mitigating them through smart control of flexible assets like batteries, charging stations, heat pumps, and more. The combination of our cloud-hosted energy management system (EMS) and local gateway enables doing so at scale.
