We must replace fossil-based power generation like natural gas and coal, with sustainable power generation. To build a robust and sustainable power system we need more flexibility, which can come in the form of large batteries. Our Power Refinery platform balances the power system on a second-by-second basis using machine learning, batteries and much more” says John Diklev, Founder and CEO.

I studied Industrial Engineering and Management at KTH in Stockholm, and flexibility from aggregated energy resources was the core of my idea for a master’s thesis subject. I concluded the thesis during the start of the pandemic and jobs were scarce, so I resorted to raising capital to realise this idea into a business, and it could not have been better timing. We have had a nice expansion, and after three years we have grown rapidly and now employ 45 people” says John Diklev.
