GreenFlex Solution by Vireo Energy
Smarter Energy Use. Lower Costs.
GreenFlex is a flexible real-time energy optimisation platform that helps energy-intensive businesses reduce electricity costs, lower emissions, and make better use of renewable energy while working with the realities of your operations.
At its core, GreenFlex forecasts electricity prices, predicts renewable generation, and adjusts your energy use to take advantage of the cheapest, cleanest times of day. It does this automatically, every five minutes, helping you avoid price spikes and capitalise on low-cost energy.
While some flexibility is needed to unlock the full value, GreenFlex is built to work around your operational needs. It considers production schedules and equipment constraints.
Whether you’re running hydrogen production, manufacturing, mining, industrial chillers, EV charging systems, or large-scale batteries, GreenFlex helps you use electricity smarter — without the need for constant manual oversight.

The Case for Wholesale Electricity Tariffs
Historically, wholesale electricity tariffs were seen as risky — with prices fluctuating every five minutes, cost certainty was hard to guarantee. Most businesses stuck to flat industrial tariffs, paying a premium for predictability.
But the market has shifted.Today, renewable energy has made low and negative prices more common — especially during daylight hours. For flexible operations, this presents a major opportunity.
Businesses can access the wholesale market by partnering with a retailer that offers a wholesale pass-through contract. This allows you to buy electricity at spot market prices, rather than paying a fixed rate. With GreenFlex in place to manage the risk, this setup can deliver significant savings.

A Small Shift in Demand can lead to big cost saving
Energy costs aren’t just about how much you use — it's about when you use it. GreenFlex helps you shift electricity use to low-cost periods, avoiding price spikes and even taking advantage of negative pricing when available. In this example, GreenFlex reduces electricity costs by 19.5% through real-time load shifting. Compared to a flat-rate retail tariff ($0.20/kWh), that’s a total saving of 38%.
The more flexibility you have, the greater the savings.
