Buildings. Behave. Better.

You're standing in the UK's biggest renewables event. We're working on the bit nobody upstream is looking at: the buildings on the other end of the wire, and how to turn them into grid assets before half-hourly settlement lands.

What this means in practice

You know how some energy suppliers pay you to run the dishwasher at 6am instead of 8pm?

That's coming. Except it's not your dishwasher. It's every building you operate.

Use energy when it's cheap and plentiful, avoid it when everyone else wants it. That's flex pricing. It's what some domestic suppliers already pay you to do, and it's what's about to land across the entire commercial portfolio.

Except instead of a dishwasher, it's every chiller, every boiler, every bank of AHUs. Instead of saving a few pounds a month, it's a meaningful chunk of the annual electricity spend. And instead of choosing when to run a load, you'll get a few hours' notice that grid demand is spiking and your rates are about to jump for the afternoon.

You can't move the school day. You can't shut down a hospital ward. But you can pre-cool buildings before the spike, shift EV charging, throttle HVAC in unoccupied zones, if you know what's running, where, and how each building responds.

From sign-on, to flex-ready

Savings start in Week One. Flex arrives in Month Twelve.

You don't wait twelve months to see value. You see it in week one. The corrections start landing on the bill from week three. The ML learns underneath while the engineer banks the obvious wins. By month twelve, the estate is ready to act on its own.

Week 1–2 · Baseline

Visualise.

See everything. Stop guessing.

Half-hourly meter history, BMS logs, invoices, occupancy and weather pulled, cleaned and time-aligned. The first honest picture of what the estate has actually been doing.

  • 14 months of usage data in 24 hours
  • Portfolio-level energy tracking
  • Variances and hot spots surfaced
  • Decarbonisation reporting ready
Week 3–Month 9 · Compound

Optimise.

Your energy coach. Always on.

Low-risk corrections live from week three. Scheduling fixes, holiday-clash resolution, simultaneous heating-and-cooling eliminated. Every set-point change engineer-signed. Savings compound while the ML learns underneath.

  • HVAC and equipment scheduling tuned
  • Comfort monitored and predicted
  • Recommendations, not just data
  • 15–40% typical savings · ROI in 90 days

Flex.

Your building, on the grid's payroll.

The ML has watched the estate through a full year. The system can now respond to half-hourly price signals and grid events autonomously, asset by asset. DSR revenue starts stacking. The 2027 regime arrives into a portfolio already fluent in it.

  • Avoid peak periods automatically
  • Carbon load-shifting for cleaner energy
  • Grid-connected flexibility revenue
  • Future-proof your energy strategy
The bit we're really excited about

Your building isn't a cost centre. It's a grid asset.

Most commercial buildings burn energy and pay the bill. Buildings on Flex do something else entirely. They listen to the grid, shift their flexible loads ahead of price spikes, pre-cool before peak, throttle unoccupied zones, and participate in demand-side response programmes.

Without a single occupant noticing. Comfort maintained within your defined tolerances. Revenue stacked across multiple markets. Zero capex.

Force 01

Variable pricing

48 half-hourly periods per day. Prices can swing 5–10× between them. Static tariffs hide this. Half-hourly billing exposes every inefficient hour.

Force 02

Carbon is now temporal

Scope 2 emissions are reported hour-by-hour and region-by-region. When you use energy now matters as much as how much.

Force 03

Network charges

Peak-time fees fund grid upgrades. Running at 5pm costs materially more than running at 3am, and the gap widens every year.
