Our mission:
Free the power grid from fossil fuels
Demand-side flexibility, sine qua non for the energy transition
Increasing the share of renewable energies in the electricity mix makes it possible to effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, it brings with it a major challenge: intermittency. To maintain the balance of the power grid, especially during periods of peak consumption, without resorting to advanced, polluting and expensive thermal power plants, it is necessary to use demand-side flexibility. Adjusting consumption according to production stabilizes the network and accelerates the energy transition.
x30 additional renewable energy in 15 years
35% increase in electricity consumption by 2035
+50% of demand response capacity needed in France by 2028
The key role of buildings
The flexibility of the tertiary sector is still largely underexploited. Commercial and office buildings account for 35% of national electricity consumption. They therefore have significant potential to contribute to the balance of the power grid. Thanks to Orus Energy, these players can shift flexible loads off peak times. In a context where the need for flexibility is constantly growing, activating this resource is not only a major contribution to the energy transition., but also a real financial opportunity for owners and managers.
The Orus Energy adventure
Orus Energy is the French leader in electrical flexibility for commercial buildings.
Based in Paris, we have developed a platform allowing our customers to exploit their potential for flexibility, by occasionally adapting their consumption according to the needs of the network, without impacting the comfort of occupants. Our mission is to transform buildings into active players in the energy transition, while rewarding our partners for this commitment.
We strongly believe that the energy transition requires collective adaptation to support the network. Our objective is to support as many players as possible towards a more flexible and therefore more sustainable energy future.

Q&A
Everything you need to know about Orus Energy.
Our help to the electricity grid translates into a monetary reward, so a new source of income. In practice, you also see energy savings due to optimised energy management, but this is a positive externality.
After estimating the potential for electrical flexibility, we select the best connectivity option for your building. We have 100% software-based connectivity solutions for buildings that comply with the ‘BACS Decree’. What's more, Orus Energy has teamed up with various players to enable all buildings, even those with little or no connectivity, to benefit from the opportunity of electrical flexibility!
Guaranteeing the comfort of occupants is of paramount importance to Orus Energy. We establish the load-shedding scenario with you, based on the thermal inertia of your building, so as not to impact comfort or operations.
Book an appointment so that a member of our team can show you how you can exploit the flexibility of your building using the platform, and give you details of how the solution works and how it can be implemented in your building(s).
Orus Energy works with you from start to finish to make the most of your flexibility potential, and it all starts with a free estimate of the gains you can expect:
