For industry and manufacturing

Energy management for energy-intensive industrial activities

For industrial companies, energy is not merely a cost item for supply; it is a crucial component of production and profitability. PowerQ manages energy procurement, peak load flexibility and compliance with regulatory requirements for manufacturing and industrial plants that consume 50,000 MWh or more.

Unforeseen since 2004

Long mandates are not a promise on paper; it is how we have worked for twenty years.

Industrial energy management requires deep operational knowledge, continuous market exposure and an agile response to grid constraints. Industrial companies, from metal processing to bulk handling and transshipment, rely on PowerQ to execute their energy strategy, hedge price volatility and secure grid capacity.

A good strategy focuses on the long term: what starts as a tender becomes a daily working relationship in which a controller and a PowerQ adviser read the same figures, across every country and location.

The four fixed workstreams

For an industrial company, it comes down to four things.

PowerQ does not tie energy advice to another product. The four workstreams below are the complete scope of what we do: for every client, in every market, every year.

01

Procurement & contracting

One framework, local contracts.

One master agreement replaces a patchwork of local contracts and intermediaries. Your local finance teams remain the counterparty per country and keep local compliance; you get one consolidated position.

02

Invoice control

Automatic, per site.

Every invoice is checked against contract and metered consumption, per site. Moves, closures and refits change the portfolio constantly; we keep contracts, meters and administration aligned with the actual footprint.

03

Consolidation & reporting

One auditable dataset, traceable per country.

Consolidating Scope 2 data is where much multi-country reporting breaks down: different data owners, formats and quality per country. PowerQ Connect delivers one auditable dataset with traceable source data, on which the auditor can perform their review.

04

Sustainability reporting

Kept current.

We deliver the energy component for CSRD and other sustainability reporting. Not every organisation falls under the same reporting obligation; we align the exact scope to your situation.

45 minutes, no proposal. We look together at the portfolio you already have (invoices, contracts, an overview of locations across every country) and tell you what coordinated procurement and one mandate would change for your rate, risk profile and CSRD substantiation.
