Entelios AG's Markus Fleschutz Discusses Power-to-Heat Market Growth and Energy Cost Savings at The Smarter E Platform.

Markus Fleschutz from Entelios AG discusses the company's leadership in industrial demand response since 2010, emphasizing their extensive operations across Germany's control zones and connections to major spot markets. They optimize flexible assets like large-scale batteries and power-to-heat systems. A key trend is electrifying process heat due to decarbonization pressures, energy price volatility, and new regulations promoting flexibility in industries traditionally limited by grid charge discounts requirements. Currently, only 3% of Europe's industrial emissions from process heat are electrified; however, existing technology could increase this figure to 60%. The business case for power-to-heat strengthens with high capacity prices during summer midday periods when unused electricity can be efficiently utilized. Regulatory changes now support companies adopting flexible operations through potential grid charge discounts or incentives—transforming restrictive policies into supportive frameworks fostering innovative models such as e-boilers or ambitious decarbonization strategies involving heat storage solutions. Financial benefits include significant cost savings via optimized energy systems like a bivalent mode operating 30-megawatt e-boiler leading to substantial revenue enhancements through various market participations while contributing partially towards decarbonization efforts without explicitly targeting carbon reduction goals.

Our European energy system is undergoing a major transformation, moving towards decentralization with increased penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to the grid, such as PV solar, battery storage, and EVs. While DERs provide clear benefits such as limiting costs, reducing CO2 emissions, and helping to empower consumers, there are still challenges to overcome to develop DERs to their full potential. This session will focus on best practices and innovative projects, both from a grid and user perspective (e.g. energy communities) and we will discuss how the regulatory framework can be improved to facilitate the penetration of DERs and active participation from consumers.
