Faqs

It is a strategy for proactive, responsible and professional management of the income and expenditure of unsubsidised renewable installations.

In plants without subsidies or tariffs, it is essential to reduce volatility and costs, as well as to capture value that is normally lost in normal merchant operations, as it goes directly to the income statement.
Thus, it is essential to implement a strategy aimed at closing price hedges to avoid bearish scenarios, or to close periods with interesting prices that improve our base case.
Similarly, optimising representation contracts, exporting and selling guarantees of origin, being able to participate in the adjustment services market, or closing hedges with offtakers, are all aimed at improving the profitability of the plants.

If utilities and oil & gas companies have energy management teams, why don’t financial investors do the same?
Optimize is aimed at investment funds, IPPs and private investors that have renewable assets in operation.
Optimize currently operates in Spain, Portugal and Italy, with a strategic roadmap to expand into additional European markets.

Optimize deals with the following subjects:

There is no risk in professionalising the energy management of installations. In fact, the risk is related to not doing so.
