The aim of the assignment is to support the municipalities in making the best possible use of the dynamic developments in the energy market and to make the tenders for electricity and gas more efficient and sustainable. enPORTAL is using its innovative digital energy platform for this purpose enPORTAL connectwhich is specially tailored to the needs of public sector clients. The platform enables comprehensive market analyses, digital tendering procedures in accordance with GWB, VgV, SektVO and UVgO as well as comprehensive energy data management. This enables Bavarian municipalities not only to save costs, but also to make their energy supply more environmentally friendly and future-proof.

Forward-looking commissioning with digital aspirations

"The challenges of the energy market require innovative approaches and a high degree of flexibility," explains Stefan Graf, Director of Energy, Telecommunications and Environmental Law at Bayerischer Gemeindetag. "By commissioning enPORTAL, our member municipalities can now use state-of-the-art technologies to optimise the planning and implementation of their energy tenders. This will ensure that they are not only economically but also ecologically up to date," Graf continues. The company enPORTAL, which has been offering digital energy tenders and energy data management for the private and public sector since 2008 and has extensive experience in the field of digital solutions for public sector clients, is looking forward to the collaboration. "Our aim is to offer the municipalities of the Bayerischer Gemeindetag a powerful solution that simplifies and improves the entire process from tendering to finalisation. Together, we are setting a new standard in municipal energy management," says Clemens Graf von Wedel, Managing Director and owner of enPORTAL GmbH. The combination of an efficient energy platform and personalised customer support is ideal for this.

This partnership has come at exactly the right time, especially in light of volatile energy prices and the need to organise processes in the public sector more efficiently. With the new platform, local authorities can optimise their tenders in line with the current conditions on the energy market and find the right purchasing strategy. The tender for the 2026 supply via the digital platform will be launched in the first quarter of 2025. All municipalities that use the platform will benefit from significant time and cost savings as well as a higher degree of innovation in their energy planning.
