Cheaper-than-gas heat — with no investment and no complexity
With Heat-as-a-Service, ENERGYNEST finances, builds, owns and operates your power-to-heat and thermal storage system. You simply buy heat: always at a price below your actual gas cost.
How it works
We use electricity only when it is cheaper than gas. The heat is stored and delivered when your process needs it. Grid flexibility and balancing revenues help fund the system.
If electricity is not cheaper than gas, the system does not dispatch. You never pay more than your current heat cost.
Your role
You provide space and grid access. You take the heat when it is delivered. You keep your boiler as backup.
Everything else — engineering, financing, optimization, trading, operation and maintenance — is handled by ENERGYNEST.
Own the asset. Keep 100% of the savings.
With the turnkey EPC model, ENERGYNEST designs, builds and commissions your system as a fully integrated solution. You own the asset and retain all savings and flexibility revenues.
Your role
You invest the CAPEX.
You own the system.
ENERGYNEST can support forecasting, trading and optimization if required.
Electrified industrial heat is long-term infrastructure. Some customers want zero capital spend and zero risk. Others want asset ownership and maximum long-term returns.
ENERGYNEST delivers both: based on the same proven operating logic.
Upgrade your thermal infrastructure without scrapping existing assets. De-fossilize your heat supply while maintaining full redundancy with your existing infrastructure. Our system integrates seamlessly into your current setup as the primary heat source, allowing you to keep your existing boilers as a 100% backup for peak demand or maintenance.

Together with tesa, we are implementing a large-scale power-to-heat plant with integrated heat storage in Hamburg, which will provide a significant portion of the energy-intensive process steam generation in a climate-neutral manner in the future.
