What FLEXIBLE ENERGY CONSORTIUM (FEC) LIMITED does

Flexible Energy Consortium (FEC) Limited is a UK-based private company that operates a B2B energy buying consortium, launched as a standalone entity in October 2024 (UK Company Registration 16394968). It provides flexible electricity, gas, and renewable energy procurement frameworks to UK enterprises and mid-market businesses, employing a hybrid hedging model that blends fixed and flexible purchasing strategies across baseload, peak, and day-ahead cash-out pricing structures. Minimum qualifying thresholds (1 MW capacity, 175,000 kWh electricity or 300,000 kWh gas per meter) restrict membership to higher-volume consumers such as high-energy manufacturers, industrial and commercial operators, multi-site operators, retail and leisure businesses, and academic institutions.

The company's core technology comprises a multi-platform Trading Desk offering mark-to-market monitoring, intra-day and block trading, automatic cap/collar setting, and European market integration, layered with a Flexible Purchasing Framework Engine supporting daily, monthly, quarterly, and seasonal purchasing approaches. AI-driven bill validation, carbon reporting, and consumption analytics are delivered through a formal partnership with Future Corporate Technologies (FCT) under a Consortium Manager agreement running December 2024 to March 2030, supplemented by supporting alliances with Optimal Monitoring (Emma AI) and Utilidex. The company holds ICO registration ZB895301 and operates from a Seaham headquarters and Leatherhead regional office, with Mark Crozier as Consortium Manager.

FEC's revenue model is transaction-fee based, combining consortium management fees with per-MWh supplier administration, day-ahead trading, and volume variance administration fees, all negotiated individually per multi-year contract. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is bespoke, with tiered frameworks for businesses consuming over 5 GWh annually. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via the trading desk and channel referrals through FCT and partner networks, with no disclosed customer logos, headcount, funding rounds, or revenue figures available in the source data.
