Smart energy solutions provider Emaldo is joining forces with Flower, a leading Nordic flexibility and energy trading company, to give its customers broader energy market access and unlock additional value from their battery assets.
Swedish grid remains stable amid growth in wind and solar
Emaldo is a European provider of end-to-end battery energy systems for homes and businesses, combining battery hardware, AI-powered energy management software and virtual power plant (VPP) aggregation. Together, these enable customers to participate in flexible energy markets and generate income through services such as Grid Rewards.
Generating additional revenue
Flower uses AI-driven optimisation to coordinate a large network of energy resources, including residential and C&I batteries, generating revenue for asset owners while supporting grid stability. Under the partnership, Emaldo's Swedish customers will gain access to Flower's full market reach, optimisation capabilities and expertise in ancillary and flexibility services. The aim is to maximise the value of their battery assets and improve returns on investment, a priority given the current volatility of the Nordic energy market.

Emaldo generates revenue for its customers through the ancillary and energy trading markets, with monthly payouts exceeding €1 million depending on market conditions. Alasdair Firth, Emaldo's Chief Product Officer, said the partnership marks "an important step in the evolution of our energy market services," adding that combining Flower's optimisation expertise with Emaldo's energy ecosystem will "deliver stable, long-term value for customers, even as energy markets become more volatile."
John Diklev, CEO of Flower, said distributed energy resources have "a critical role to play in the future energy system," noting that the collaboration will bring "more flexible capacity into the market" and allow residential and commercial assets to support grid stability at scale. (hcn)
