Local energy management for a smarter, more resilient grid
Optimising the local grid
Distributed energy resources (DERs) will play a vital role in the future of the UK electricity grid.
Our edge-AI platform orchestrates community-scale batteries and other DERs to improve returns, while providing local grid resilience and supporting renewable energy integration - including helping unlock more viable community solar projects.
How we work
-
AI Intelligence
Advanced AI optimises local battery networks and domestic assets in real time, to improve grid resilience, support renewable energy integration, and reduce the risk of power cuts.
-
Seamless Integration
We partner with community groups, housing developers, and local authorities to integrate our orchestration platform with local energy assets.
-
Local Energy Resilience
Enabling intelligent local energy networks that support UK energy security, and deliver meaningful long-term benefits for local communities.
Envol Energy orchestrates and optimises local energy assets to deliver value while strengthening the grid where it needs it most.
What we do
Strengthening housing developments and communities with local energy storage
Our orchestration platform enables developers and social housing providers to deploy community-scale battery systems that bypass grid connection queues, improve local energy efficiency, reduce network losses, and support rising electricity demand from EV charging and heat pumps, particularly when installed alongside rooftop solar. Connected directly into the local grid, our platform strengthens local energy resilience without the operational and maintenance challenges often associated with individual domestic battery installations.
Flexible micro-grids to support the Government’s Local Power Plan
Using intelligently connected community-scale batteries, Local Authorities are helping to support rising electricity demand from EV charging, heat pumps, and rooftop solar while strengthening the resilience of their local energy networks. With a compact footprint suitable for small parcels of underused land, our software-driven micro-grid approach helps unlock smarter, more localised energy infrastructure for future communities.
Supporting community energy projects with local battery storage
Our AI orchestration platform manages community-owned storage, to help community energy groups maximise the value of locally generated renewable electricity while strengthening the resilience of their local energy networks. By storing excess power and deploying it when community demand is highest, our platform supports smarter local energy sharing, improving the viability of rooftop and community solar schemes, and helping more renewable energy stay within the communities where it is generated.
