How I work with your site
Your plant can earn money by running flexibly. My job is to find out where, how much and what it takes, without disturbing the process.
Where I start
I spent ten years on the operations side of chemical plants, including the flexibility programme of a 200MW chlorine plant. So I know how many disciplines have an opinion on the load, and how rarely they sit in one room.
Most of the work is untangling that knot: operations, engineering, energy procurement and finance each hold a piece of the answer. My job is to get them behind one plan that has survived their own feasibility check. The money follows from that, not the other way around.
“You work with me. Enovin brings in developers or a specialist when a step needs one, and I stay the one you call.”
Stephan den BlekerThe four questions we answer together
Every engagement follows the same four questions. The order matters: the process is settled before the money is counted.
What can actually move
I sit down with your operators, engineers and energy buyer and walk the site. Every asset that can run up or down goes on the list, together with the constraints the people running it know by heart: maintenance windows, product quality, safety, contracts.
What your own team says about it
Every option gets a verdict from your team: go, study, hold or kill, judged on safety, engineering, contracts and cost. What they kill stays killed.
This is what keeps the process safe. Your own people decide, on paper, what they can live with before anything moves. I untangle the knot between the disciplines and get them behind one plan that has passed their own feasibility check.
What it is worth
What survives, I value as one portfolio against the markets that actually pay: day-ahead and intraday, reserve capacity, congestion services. You get ranges you can defend to your CFO, labelled as estimates with the assumptions next to them. There is no number on this page, because the honest number depends on your site.
What to do first
The output is a roadmap with named projects, owners and decision gates, plus the short list of decisions your management has to take. If you want, I stay on until the first MW runs.
What this looks like in practice
About 12 weeks, fixed price, on site where it matters. The first weeks are spent with your people, the last weeks with your management. Halfway you already know which options your own team has killed.
What I do not do
I do not sell batteries, platforms or trading contracts and I have no arrangement with anyone on the supply side. The advice has one customer, and that is you. If the honest answer is that your site has little to gain, you hear that in the first call.
How clients describe it
“Working with Enovin helped us bridging the gap between operations, engineering, commercial, and energy procurement, connecting easily across all levels and functions. Which is so important of the topic of industrial energy flexibility. Their structured, methodical approach turned complex, fragmented inputs into a coherent strategy, and gave us the confidence to move forward.”
“Enovin brings deep expertise in industrial flexibility and has provided excellent support to the Port of Rotterdam on industrial energy hub projects. A valuable partner through its structured approach and ability to turn complex energy challenges into concrete plans and results.”
