Germany's First Marketing in FSV SEAL

With the launch of the new SEAL system service product on 22 May 2024, industrial flexibility will be used to stabilise the grid. SEAL replaces the Switch-off Loads Ordinance (AbLaV), which expired in June 2022, and enables electrical consumers to be switched off quickly in order to stabilise the grid frequency.

Entelios AG is the first marketer in Germany to qualify for SEAL. Since July 2024, two Alzchem carbide furnaces with a total output of 50 MW have been successfully marketed. The systems can be switched off at short notice in the event of grid fluctuations and quickly switched back on again. “We are proud to keep breaking new ground in the marketing of industrial flexibility with Entelios. Participating in SEAL enables us to actively contribute to grid stability and optimise our operating costs at the same time,” says Klaus Englmaier, COO at Alzchem. SEAL is an important step towards stabilising the power grid and demonstrates the innovative strength of Entelios. “We are pioneers in industrial load flexibility and are the only provider to offer all system service products of the German TSOs,” emphasises Fabian Becker, CEO of Entelios. Alzchem AG, a leading chemical company, and Entelios, with its expertise in the field of industrial demand response services, are working together on solutions that make an important contribution to the stability and sustainability of the electricity grid.
