What Flo Energy does
Flo Energy Singapore Pte. Ltd. is a licensed electricity retailer (EMA/RE/041) headquartered in Singapore, founded in 2019–2020 by Matthijs and Ernst. The company sells renewable electricity — defined as 100% usage-matched regional Renewable Energy Certificates sourced from I-REC and TIGR registries under Singapore Standard 673 — to Singapore businesses and, since 2023, to customers in Australia via a Melbourne office. The offering spans published SME fixed-rate plans (12/24/36 months at 27.00–29.00¢/kWh GST inclusive), custom enterprise plans (Fixed / Pool / Hybrid for customers consuming 20,000+ kWh/month), a zero-capex Solar PPA (15–25 year terms with discounted on-site solar tariffs), standalone local REC procurement for RE100 compliance, and a Tenant Management Solutions suite (Tenant+, Meter+, Complete) serving 1,500+ tenants across shopping malls, healthcare, education, and real estate.
All of these products are delivered through Flo's proprietary in-house energy platform, anchored by the FlowSmart Dashboard, which provides real-time usage visibility at 30-minute intervals, automated billing, contract management, and multi-premise administration. Smart metering infrastructure is installed at no cost for tenant-management customers and is accuracy-tested by TÜV SÜD PSB Singapore under SAC-Singlas accreditation. Flo's GTM is bifurcated: enterprise sales via dedicated account managers (field sales) for large customers and a self-serve Singpass-enabled online signup (under two minutes, no document uploads) for SMEs, plus a Google Forms residential interest list ahead of a planned household launch.
Flo claims to be Singapore's largest independent electricity retailer and the first retailer approved under the Energy Market Authority's enhanced 2024 Open Electricity Market rules. The company is backed by Vitol (a global energy company), which invested in 2023 to fund international expansion; Vitol does not participate in operations. Flo employs roughly 150 people across Singapore and Australia.

Revenue model
- Electricity Retail - Fixed Rate Plans: Flo sells renewable electricity under fixed-rate contract plans (12, 24, or 36 months) to businesses in Singapore. Customers pay a contracted rate per kWh multiplied by their usage, plus GST. Rates are all-inclusive, covering third-party charges and RECs with no hidden fees.
- Electricity Retail - Pool/Variable Rate Plans: For large enterprise customers, Flo offers variable rate plans where electricity cost fluctuates based on Singapore's wholesale electricity market (changes every 30 minutes). This provides savings during low-demand periods.
- Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA): Flo finances, installs, and maintains solar PV systems on customer rooftops at zero upfront cost to the customer. Customers pay a discounted solar tariff for electricity generated on-site, which is lower than grid electricity rates. Flo retains ownership of the PV system throughout the contract (15-25 year terms).
- Local Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) Procurement: Flo procures and redeems local (Singapore) Renewable Energy Certificates on behalf of RE100 companies and businesses with sustainability commitments. Offered as one-time purchase or recurring (monthly/annual) plans, supporting ESG reporting frameworks including RE100, CDP, GRI, SBTi. Can be bundled with electricity plans.
- Tenant Management Solutions (TMS): Flo provides end-to-end electricity supply, billing, and collection services for multi-tenanted commercial and industrial properties. Modules include Tenant+ (electricity supply + billing + REC matching), Meter+ (smart submetering), and Complete (all-inclusive). Fees are embedded in electricity supply contracts.
