Our Offer

From the first estimate to day-to-day operation

Free and without obligation

Initial analysis

We start with a conversation about your site, then simulate it against real power and gas market data. We model your heat system in detail, including local factors such as grid fees, and optimize second by second. What you get is a defensible order of magnitude rather than a rule of thumb, plus a short report to take into internal discussions.

Engineering & financing

Considering a power-to-heat plant? In the feasibility project we build the business case for a well-founded investment decision and bring every party on board for delivery. Under the pre-financed model, we and our partners take on the full engineering and finance the plant for you.

Engineering

Feasibility project

The start of delivery: in twelve weeks the order of magnitude from the initial analysis becomes a project ready to build. We survey your existing system in full, check the transformer and the grid connection, and compare the options until it is clear which one gets built at your site.

  • Options compared: a new electric boiler, retrofitting an existing one, or added storage
  • Potential in what you have: flexibility in existing CHP units, boilers and storage
  • Transformer and grid connection: capacity, upgrades and talks with the network operator
  • A technical concept and defensible CAPEX, costed with our partners in plant construction
  • An investment-grade business case: savings, revenue, payback, CO₂ and funding
Financing

Pre-financing by Celsio

Many electrification projects fail on capital rather than on technology. Celsio and its partners take on the investment and the whole project: you provide the space and the connection, and benefit from guaranteed lower heat costs.

  • No capital outlay and no capital tied up
  • A guaranteed saving from the first day of operation, with no market risk
  • Engineering, construction and operation, together with our plant-construction partner
  • One point of contact for the entire project
  • Maintenance, power procurement and control included

Short contract terms are possible too, with the option to take the plant over afterwards.

Live operation

In day-to-day operation our offer has three parts, available separately where the case calls for it: optimizing the system, cheaper energy, and safe control of your heat supply.

Part 1

Optimization

Our cross-market optimization uses AI to forecast the revenue available on every market and find the operating strategy that earns the most, re-decided every second.

  • Every flexible asset included: electric boiler, heat pump, CHP, thermal storage, battery and solar
  • Forecasts for heat demand, power demand and generation behind every decision
  • Regulatory items such as atypical grid use are priced in from the start
  • A monitoring dashboard with forecasts, schedules and live operating data

Part 2

Power procurement

As a licensed electricity supplier, Celsio buys the power for your electric boiler itself and takes on the balancing group and market access across every short-term market:

  • Day-ahead: the base optimization, on the prices expected the day before
  • Intraday: short-term price moves from weather and forecast changes
  • Balancing: payment for fast flexibility that stabilizes the grid

Your existing supply contract for the rest of the site is untouched. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to switch.

Part 3

Control

Celsio adjusts output automatically to the market. You can report unavailability at any time and, where safety is at stake, simply override our signal.

  • A control unit connected to your plant, for example over Modbus, encrypted end to end
  • Integration into your control system on request, emergency control included
  • Meets the technical and regulatory requirements of operation
  • The gas boiler stays available as a fallback at all times

The heat process itself notices nothing of the switch.

Is Celsio a fit for your site?

Most relevant where heat is the bulk of the load

In many industries process heat accounts for a large share of the energy used, often as steam or thermal oil. That is exactly where the lever for cost optimization and decarbonization sits.
