Smart congestion management for buildings

Entune Gridflow helps buildings reduce peak loads and avoid exceeding contracted capacity. By managing climate control systems more intelligently and aligning them with assets such as charging stations, solar panels, and batteries, you create flexibility within the building's energy system. This significantly reduces congestion risks, or even prevents them almost entirely, while demonstrably improving comfort for users.

Gridflow explained in 4 steps

Adaptive setpoint optimization

Gridflow lowers peak loads by controlling HVAC systems more intelligently at the room level. With adaptive setpoint optimization, the power of these systems is dynamically adjusted to the actual situation in the building. In many cases, this enables a peak reduction of 10% to 30%, often in combination with energy savings.

Thermal load shifting without loss of comfort

By heating or cooling spaces more intelligently and at different times, simultaneous peaks are flattened. Gridflow uses slower or faster warm-up profiles for this, depending on the building and its usage. This allows you to shift loads over time without compromising comfort.

Smart coordination with other energy assets

Gridflow can be integrated with assets such as charging stations, solar panels, and batteries. This creates additional flexibility for load balancing and makes better use of the available capacity within the contracted limit, further enhancing the effect of congestion reduction.

Fail-safe peak shaving during potential overages

When congestion threatens, Gridflow activates a fail-safe mechanism that intervenes in stages. Based on priorities and conditions, power is temporarily reduced where it is safe to do so. This phased power reduction helps prevent exceeding contracted capacity without unnecessarily disrupting comfort or building performance.

Key features of Gridflow

Peak reduction via HVAC systems

Reduce power peaks by controlling existing HVAC systems flexibly and data-driven.

Leveraging thermal flexibility

Use the building's thermal inertia intelligently to shift loads without sacrificing comfort.

Integration with charging stations, batteries, and solar panels

Coordinate multiple energy assets for greater flexibility and improved load balancing.

Protection against exceeding contracted capacity

Avoid fines, outages, or unwanted power spikes with smart fail-safe peak shaving.

Comfort guaranteed

Congestion reduction and energy management go hand in hand with maintaining a comfortable indoor climate.

Data- and model-driven control

Monitors the energy market, your meter, and the grid 24/7, purchases energy smartly, and adjusts your consumption accordingly.
