A green energy world, powered by smart technology

In the global pursuit of net zero carbon emissions, energy markets are growing in speed and complexity. Market volatility is the "new normal" and the accelerating growth in renewables makes the planning, trading and optimisation of energy production and consumption increasingly challenging. Faster, data-driven energy trading is critical and old technology is not up to the task. Powerful digital solutions are required for energy companies to thrive.

Finlay McCutcheon, Director of SSE Business Energy:

“Flexibility is an increasingly valuable part of the GB electricity market and SSE is delighted to be working with Origami as we deliver our new SSE VPP product. We believe Origami's technology is market leading and will help us provide significant value to our customers.”

Edward Feltmann, Start-Up Engagement Manager at VERBUND:

"Origami’s forecast monitoring team helped to enable us to identify avoidable imbalance costs and drive efficiencies in our processes that can enable VERBUND to scale up our metering point business. We selected Origami as one of six finalists in the VERBUND X Accelerator start-up program, from an initial list of over 300 potential candidates across 43 countries."

Robert Groves, Chief Executive Officer at SmartestEnergy:

“We expect Origami’s technology platform should become an industry standard over time (potentially as Salesforce has become with CRM) as the energy industry continues to transform towards renewables and distributed energy resources, with the resulting complexity and volatility needing a software based, technology solution.”
