Energy data management is the administration and analysis of all energy consumption data of a company. This includes the display and control of consumption points, consumption, costs and contracts. This is accompanied by the linking of a company's energy data with current, publicly regulated grid fees, taxes, levies and charges. This information is bundled, linked, up-to-date and complete at all times in enPORTAL connect.

Good energy data management is a prerequisite for optimally procuring energy and reducing costs. Offline or with Excel spreadsheets, this is associated with a high level of error-prone effort and countless hours of work, as in addition to consumption, grid charges, taxes, levies and charges also change continuously. With enPORTAL connect, after a short onboarding process, you have a functional energy platform in which your energy data is automatically updated and maintained by us.

With enPORTAL connect, your consumption points are displayed with consumption, costs, grid data, charges and taxes. Numerous filter functions allow you to analyse your data. As a rule, we have created your energy data retrospectively on the energy platform for at least two years, so that you can also better understand historical changes. The longer you are a customer of ours, the more comprehensive the data basis becomes. enPORTAL connect serves as a digital filing cabinet.

After your booking, you will receive access to enPORTAL connect and provide the data required for the initial creation. We then view your energy data, create it and contact you for an initial meeting with your personal customer advisor. You can find all further information on the onboarding process here: Support.

Electricity and gas are media that are traded on exchanges and are subject to high price fluctuations. Stock exchange price developments, in turn, have a direct influence on the energy suppliers' price calculations. It is therefore important to keep the energy data permanently up to date in order to be able to start a tender at short notice if necessary. This is possible with enPORTAL connect because all the relevant energy data that energy suppliers need for price calculation is available at all times.

With enPORTAL connect, your energy data is updated automatically and is always up to date. All you need to do in this area is log in to the energy platform and view your current energy data. Updating energy data via Excel or other software programmes always involves continuous manual effort and is often incomplete and out of date. However, this is important in order to be able to start a tender quickly in the event of good stock market developments.

We receive a power of attorney from you so that we can obtain the current consumption data from your energy supplier. This eliminates the manual effort for you and you always have an overview of all current consumption. We link your energy data with all current grid charges, taxes, levies and apportionments so that you can keep an eye on your consumption and energy costs at all times.

Grid charges, taxes and levies are fed into our energy platform via digital interfaces (API) in cooperation with data service providers. This eliminates the effort for you to research and constantly adapt these individually.

This varies completely - sometimes annually, sometimes every six months or at short notice. As an enPORTAL connect customer, you are continuously and immediately informed about all market changes and adjustments. All currently valid values are immediately linked to your energy data via our digital interfaces. This facilitates your economic planning and gives you security and control.

Yes, your energy data is stored in enPORTAL connect in such a way that you can set all filters and views as you need them at any time. You can also create analyses and reports as Excel tables or PDF files at any time.

The electricity load curve data are usually available by the 10th day of a month. For gas, it usually takes until the 15th day of a month due to the so-called calorific value adjustment. You can ask your personal customer advisor for more information at any time.

An energy marketplace is a digital place where industry, SMEs and commercial companies, as well as public clients and sector contracting authorities, are networked with energy suppliers to purchase electricity and gas. In other words, a trading place for energy. We founded our energy marketplace in 2008 and have since been one of the leading digital energy platforms in the German market.

The German energy market is particularly large and heterogeneous, with around 1,000 energy supply companies. There are many players and issues that play an important role, including the energy transition, the expansion of renewable energies, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as well as regulations of the market. In the German energy market, there are four supra-regional energy suppliers (E.ON, RWE, EnBW and Vattenfall) that generate and sell energy themselves. In addition, there are numerous energy suppliers or municipal utilities that operate supraregionally or only regionally.

Electricity is electricity and natural gas is natural gas. The energy sources do not differ in quality. What does differ, however, is the price that energy suppliers charge for a kilowatt hour. Therefore, it is always worthwhile to enquire about the largest possible number of suppliers. Companies from the industrial, SME and commercial sectors, as well as public clients and sector contractors, only receive individual energy price offers that are precisely tailored to the company profile. Taking advantage of the great competition is quick and easy via a digital energy marketplace.

Our digital energy marketplace contains more than 700 verified energy suppliers from all over Germany. These include all national energy suppliers as well as numerous regional municipal utilities. We thus offer maximum competition in the German market.

Our 700 or so participating energy suppliers can use the enPORTAL connect energy marketplace free of charge to participate in tenders for electricity and gas. They can register for this via our website and are then admitted after an initial check.

The entire process takes several working days, whereby your working time is only 1-3 hours in total. In the meantime, your account manager takes care of preparing a tender and the energy suppliers have time to calculate your offers and submit them.

You put your required energy quantities out to tender via the energy marketplace. Since all energy data is always complete and up-to-date in enPORTAL connect, the tender is possible at any time. If there is a good time to buy, it's just one click and over 700 energy suppliers in Germany will hear about your tender. After the end of the tender, you will immediately see the most favourable and suitable supplier listed in a bidder's list - including a price and performance comparison. With just one click, you can select your preferred supplier, confirm the energy supply contract online in a legally secure manner, and the change of supplier is done. We act independently and neutrally; the decision for a supplier is still up to your company.

This varies greatly and depends on many factors, such as consumption structure, energy quantity, creditworthiness and market situation. Sometimes there are 20 offers, sometimes only 3, but these are the best prices on the market at the time of purchase. As a general rule, the greatest possible competition creates the greatest possible certainty of finding the cheapest and most suitable energy supplier. In commercial energy procurement there are no fixed tariffs, only individual price offers according to the lock-and-key principle. The customer who best fits into the energy supplier's portfolio receives a good and customised price offer.

Yes, all energy suppliers and the responsible key account holders are stored in enPORTAL connect. You have the option of contacting them at any time.

Regional proximity to the energy supplier is not relevant. However, the digital energy marketplace of enPORTAL connect is used to request information from both regional and supraregional energy suppliers in order to obtain the best price in any case.

Energy suppliers use the energy marketplace as a sales platform and thus find new customers who fit into their portfolio. Energy suppliers have digital access via enPORTAL connect to all the data they need for calculating offers. In summary, the effort required for acquisition, submission of offers and drafting of contracts is reduced to a minimum on the part of the energy supplier.
