coneva Flex EMS
An energy management system that thinks ahead. coneva Flex EMS optimises battery storage systems and charging infrastructure through fully automated multi-use asset optimisation. It bridges local EMS applications with the energy markets.
We automate your energy flows, transparent, cross-manufacturer and fully adaptive
Energy efficiency doesn’t end with the hardware; it starts with intelligent control. coneva Flex Energy Management System (EMS) connects PV systems, battery storage and charging infrastructure into a holistic ecosystem that dynamically adapts to market prices, load profiles and self-consumption targets.
Whether your goal is cost optimisation, renewable integration or higher system efficiency, coneva Flex EMS ensures that energy flows where it delivers the greatest impact. Automatically, in real time and scalable for any site configuration.
This is how energy consumption becomes intelligent energy management: flexible, modular and future-proof.
Save up to 50% on energy costs!
With
- PV self-consumption optimisation
- Load management (incl. atypical grid usage)
- Automated control of battery storage systems and EV charging stations
- Price-optimised procurement of residual electricity via our dynamic tariff
Intelligently connected through coneva Flex EMS.
Reduce electricity costs, increase self-consumption and avoid peak loads.
With coneva Flex EMS, you automatically and optimally control PV systems, battery storage and charging infrastructure. The system ensures that each site operates efficiently, energy flows remain transparent and decisions are traceable in real time—without complex configuration.
Your Advantages
With coneva Flex EMS, you make optimal use of your existing assets. Our system increases PV self-consumption, reduces peak loads and lowers energy costs—automatically and transparently. Here’s how you benefit from intelligent control:
Reduce electricity costs
By combining a dynamic electricity tariff with automated control, you can shift consumption to periods with the lowest market prices. Significantly reducing energy costs without manual intervention.
Avoid peak loads and reduce grid fees
The system identifies high-load periods and manages battery storage and assets to systematically reduce peaks, lowering grid charges and improving cost efficiency.
Increase self-consumption
PV systems and battery storage are coordinated intelligently. Your self-generated energy is stored or used on-site instead of being fed into the grid.
Leverage your flexibility
If you can shift loads, you can immediately benefit from low market prices, enabling savings without additional systems, e.g., by shifting processes, charging cycles or production steps.
Automated control with no operational effort
Control is fully automated based on forecasts for consumption, PV generation and market prices. All decisions are displayed transparently in 15-minute intervals.
Prepared for the future
You build the foundation for future market mechanisms such as dynamic grid fees, direct marketing or variable tariffs. Your site becomes ready for the next evolution of the energy market.
How does coneva Flex work?
Our short video explains how coneva Flex operates, how spot market prices affect your electricity procurement and which savings potentials arise through intelligent EMS optimisation for industrial and commercial customers.
Simple, practical and easy to understand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions about the coneva Flex EMS.
The key prerequisite is quarter-hourly measurability of electricity consumption, as dynamic tariffs cannot be applied or billed without it. Larger companies with annual consumption above 100,000 kWh already meet this requirement through an RLM meter. For controllability, the coneva SmartBox must also be installed in the distribution cabinet.
Ideal assets for price-optimised load shifting include EV charging stations, particularly for fleet operators in logistics, larger corporate EV fleets or municipal utilities with high EV density. Other flexible loads include heat pumps, stationary battery storage systems and refrigeration units.
No, this cannot occur. There is always sufficient electricity available, ensuring full comfort even if load shifting does not take place. For example, an EV will continue charging even if the user does not follow the price signals of the tariff. However, only adherence to the price-optimised charging plan reduces electricity costs. If users do not follow the recommendations reflected in the variable tariff, they will not achieve savings.
coneva offers the Flex EMS in the role of an energy supplier. The coneva Flex tariff combines coneva’s technology and energy management expertise with the required energy market processes. coneva provides the energy management system that performs the optimisation and load shifting. You must switch from your current supplier and sign a supply contract with coneva. This all-in-one package provides commercial and industrial customers with a fully integrated solution.
The contract for coneva Flex EMS runs for 2 years and can be terminated with 3 months' notice to the end of the month.
For customers with PV self-consumption, the Flex tariff optimises only the remaining electricity demand. PV generation is forecast and integrated into the optimisation.
Electricity is purchased on the EPEX SPOT exchange (https://www.epexspot.com/en). This is the European electricity exchange where hourly and quarter-hourly contracts are traded. This enables price signals to be passed on. You have the option of canceling your electricity contract on a monthly basis after the first contract month has expired. This gives you the flexibility to observe the electricity market and switch to a futures market product (fixed price) if necessary.
