The event covered market strategy alongside forecasting tools and improved IT security systems while demonstrating cross-border aggregation applications through partnerships with Optimus Energy and Eesti Energia.
  • In July 2025, Enpal (Germany) together with Entrix (optimization/trading platform provider) introduced Flexa which represents the biggest VPP across Europe. Through its AI-powered trading system the platform connects residential solar installations with batteries and electric vehicles and heat pumps to build up multiple gigawatts of VPP capacity.
Report Analysis:

Energy Storage Systems:

ESSs are typically classified based on the stored energy form into electrical, mechanical, electrochemical and thermal ESSs. ESSs can also be categorised based on the power and energy densities or ratings into high-energy density ESSs and high-power density ESSs. The high-energy density ESSs include pumped hydro ESS, compressed-air ESS, thermal ESS and hydrogen-based ESS, which are typically used for energy management applications. The high-power density ESSs include supercapacitor ESS, flywheel ESS and superconducting magnetic ESS, which are often used for power management applications. Many types of battery ESS have high energy and power densities, and hence, they might be suitable for both power and energy management applications.
