Flexible energy.
Resilient future.
Renewable energy – the future of energy production
- The technology to harness solar and wind power already exists, making energy an abundant resource.
- Today, renewables are the most cost-effective form of energy production.
- However, solar and wind are intermittent sources, creating new challenges for grid deployment. These challenges can – and must – be solved.
Why it matters: Renewables offer energy abundance but demand a new approach to grid deployment and security of supply.
Climate change – accelerating the transition
- Global warming is a fact, and its effects are becoming increasingly visible.
- Climate change can be addressed through electrification of industry, transport, and heating and cooling systems.
- Rising awareness among policymakers, regulators, and the public is increasing the pressure to act.
The reality: The shift to solar and wind is already happening – driven by cost-efficiency. Climate change simply accelerates that shift.
Grid infrastructure – the bottleneck
- The centralized energy system was designed over 100 years ago, built around a few large production units.
- It is based on both tangible infrastructure and intangible systems like market design, regulation, and pricing – none of which are equipped for today’s transition.
- Grid expansion is costly and slow, delaying both industrial growth and the shift to a low-carbon energy system.
Key challenge: Aging grids – and the time it takes to upgrade them – are now the biggest obstacles to a fast, resilient energy transformation.
What we do and why
Polar Energy develop, own and operate local capacity solutions that ensure secure, flexible, and scalable energy supply.
We partner with industries, municipalities, and energy providers to deliver solutions that solve capacity constraints at the source.
Our infrastructure investments are designed for flexibility, ensuring that electrification and industrial expansion can happen now—not years from now.
By focusing on local energy security, we help reduce reliance on grid expansions while enabling a resilient and sustainable energy future.
A Flex Utility
A flex utility transforms energy infrastructure into a decentralized, flexible network that balances supply and demand efficiently, where demand occur. It integrates renewable energy sources, battery storage systems (BESS), and other local capacity solutions. All to reduce reliance on centralized grids, enabling higher penetration of intermittent renewables and overall to create the most cost-effective energy system fit for the future.
1. Local security of supply
Ensure resilience with localized solutions such as black start capabilities, island mode operation, and reduced dependency on national grids, empowering local communities.
2. Optimize grids
Maximize the efficiency of existing infrastructure and avoid the need for costly new grid investments (CAPEX). This also increases grid utilization.
3. Enable industrial growth
Support the green transformation through electrification by providing reliable energy infrastructure for new and existing industries, helping municipalities attract industrial establishments and meet capacity needs.
