What ene't does

ene't GmbH is an independent German software and services company founded in 2002, headquartered in Hückelhoven (North Rhine-Westphalia) with a second office in Torgau (Saxony). The company specializes in proprietary market data and software applications for the German and Austrian energy industry, serving distribution network operators, energy suppliers, balance circle responsible parties (BKV), and metering point operators within the Versorgungswirtschaft sector. Its product portfolio centers on the ene't Navigator® platform, which integrates calculation applications for network fees, end-customer tariffs, and competitive analysis, alongside the ene't MaKo+ market communication service for load profile and balancing processes, the ene't StromCommunity® white-label energy sharing platform, and specialized market data products for network usage fees and customer tariffs delivered in MS SQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and Access formats.

The underlying technology combines continuously updated proprietary databases with an open BO4D/BO4E data standard for cross-manufacturer interoperability, and the company holds ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications. ene't generates revenue through three primary streams: recurring database and software subscriptions, managed services for market communication processes (MaKo+) with tiered basic-to-premium service models, and individual consulting for specialized data analyses and energy economics calculations. The company operates a sales-led go-to-market with free consultation sessions and personalized demos targeting enterprise and mid-market energy sector customers, supplemented by event marketing (including the annual ene't connect conference) and multi-channel newsletters.

With approximately 100 employees, the company has accumulated a customer base of over 600 enterprises in the supply industry, and is currently positioned to benefit from the June 2026 entry into force of § 42c EnWG, the German Energy Sharing regulation, through its StromCommunity platform. The company is privately held and managed by two Geschäftsführer, Dipl.-Ing. Roland Hambach and Peter Schroer B. Sc., with no external venture capital or private equity investment on record.
