Energymanagement for Greenhouses

For lighting, climate, heat, CO₂, cooling and CHP

Energy is not a cost item in Greenhouse Horticulture. It is a production factor

Without energy, nothing grows. Lighting, climate, heat, CO₂, cooling and combined heat and power (CHP) determine on a daily basis how you run your greenhouse and what you can produce. At the same time, keeping energy affordable is becoming increasingly important. Gas and electricity prices fluctuate sharply, are unpredictable and expensive. Energy taxes are changing, the electricity grid is at full capacity, and the requirements surrounding CO₂ legislation and sustainability are increasing.

That is why using energy wisely is becoming increasingly important for the profitability of your nursery.

We ensure that your energy is used as efficiently as possible, in line with your business, your systems and your crop production.

Enova's approach

Enova does not operate as a broker or intermediary. We operate as a market operator. This means we actively position your volumes across:

  • The day-ahead marketplanning ahead based on price expectations and production forecasts
  • Intraday marketscontinuously adjusting based on real-time data
  • Imbalance marketscorrecting in real time when production or consumption deviates from plan, minimizing penalties while capturing upside opportunities
  • Long-term trading: forward contracts and hedging strategies to manage price risk and stabilize revenue

We link the choices we make in the energy market directly to what happens on your farm: your crops, your CHP unit, battery, lighting, electric boiler, heat pump and more.
In this way, we make energy management an integral part of your day-to-day operations.

What this means in practice

The energy market is constantly changing. By taking a proactive approach, you gain greater control over your energy costs and reduce the risk of unexpected setbacks.

For day-to-day operations, this means greater peace of mind and control: energy choices are tailored to your cultivation, production and installations. You don’t have to make a decision yourself every time there’s a change in the market.

For you as an entrepreneur, it means greater control over your business’s profitability. Energy is not just a cost item, but also a tool for saving and earning money.

We ensure that your energy is used as effectively as possible, tailored to your business, your installations and your crop production.
