Discover energy security as a profitable business area.
With the Primeo control energy pool equalio, you can easily market your primary, secondary or tertiary energy and generate attractive additional revenue. By participating in the control power market, you also make an important contribution to the Swiss' grid stability and the energy transition.
Why a balancing energy pool?
In our control pool, we bundle the free capacities from over 200 diversified plants and make the power available to Swissgrid as a whole. We take care of all tasks for our customers, from prequalification to marketing and billing.
Participants in the control pool receive remuneration for the provision of their plant (capacity provision) and revenue when the plant is called up.

Winter reserve: Increasing the supply in winter together
Primeo Energie has been chosen by the Swiss Confederation to bundle emergency power groups, thus making a significant contribution to securing the power supply in the coming winter. Do you have emergency power groups with a capacity of at least 750 kW and would like to make these available as a winter reserve? Then please contact us using the form below.
A contribution to the 2050 Energy Strategy
To reach the targets of the 2050 Energy Strategy, Switzerland is focusing on expanding its renewable energy sources.
However, the changed composition of the power plant fleet is bringing about increased power grid fluctuations that need to be managed effectively. To ensure grid stability, transmission system operators rely on flexible production capacities. Here, power generation plant operators can contribute significantly to climate protection while at the same time generating good revenues.

You can enter your excess energy easily and conveniently via our control power platform. For this purpose, you define the quantity and price. You will be notified if the amount of energy you have provided is accessed at the price you requested.
As a rule, you place the quantities on the platform once and then don’t have to worry about anything else. But you receive ongoing queries about your energy quantities and benefit from the control energy market.
