Energy flexibility: unlock the flex potential of your industrial equipment
The electricity market is evolving: with volatile prices, grid stresses, and the growing share of renewables, market prices fluctuate significantly, including an increasing number of negative prices.
This represents a very attractive economic opportunity for industrial players!
With Purecontrol, transform your equipment into genuine levers of energy agility.
Our intelligent control solution allows you to anticipate, modulate, and monetize your electricity consumption without compromising performance. Energy flexibility finally becomes simple, automatic, and profitable.
Control your equipment according to energy market signals
The energy transition requires a new approach to consumption: it is no longer just a question of consuming less,
But of consume better And to best moments.
Energy flexibility is becoming a strategic lever for manufacturers and communities.
With Purecontrol, go from passive consumption to dynamic management. Our technology makes it possible to adapt the operation of your equipment in real time to internal signals (process needs) and external signals (market rates, erasure requests, self-consumption). And this, without interruption of operation.
3 flexibility levers activated by Purecontrol to decarbonize your industry
1. Optimize consumption based on market prices
Purecontrol automatically adjusts the operation of your equipment according to market signals (spot prices, hourly variations, negative prices), as well as their individual energy performance.
Our AI analyzes process needs in real time and dynamically allocates loads among available equipment to prioritize the least energy-intensive ones.
Consume at the right time, with the right equipment.
This approach allows you to fully leverage the cheapest hours while limiting unnecessary power calls.
Result: You not only reduce your electricity costs but also unnecessary start/stop cycles, extending the lifespan of your installations
2. Implement demand response without impacting production
Load shedding involves temporarily reducing consumption upon grid request in exchange for compensation. The challenge is to ensure this does not impact production.
That’s why Purecontrol includes a predictive simulation module. Before each load shedding event, our solution evaluates the potential impact on the process and decides, based on your constraints, whether the load shedding is technically and operationally feasible.
If feasible, the solution automatically executes the load shedding without any service interruption.
Join an active and supportive network
By joining Purecontrol’s load shedding pool, your sites become part of a secure collective load shedding mechanism. Each site contributes according to its capacity, regardless of its energy power.
Result: stable economic benefits and guaranteed reliability — even for small sites.
Purecontrol manages electrical load shedding automatically and without service disruption
NEBEF becomes NEBCO: a new era for energy flexibility
Since September 2025, the NEBEF mechanism has evolved into NEBCO (Consumption Block Exchange Notification). This regulatory framework now allows you to monetize planned increases in consumption, in addition to traditional demand response. This means you can be paid to consume more... but at the right time, when the grid has a surplus of renewable electricity. An additional opportunity to monetize your energy flexibility, effortlessly, and always without impacting your process.
3. Maximize locally produced energy through self-consumption
Generating electricity on-site is the first step. The key is to consume this energy when it’s available. Purecontrol integrates a solar forecasting module that combines local weather, production history, and field data to anticipate renewable production peaks.
Our AI automatically adjusts equipment setpoints to align operating cycles with energy production windows. Outside these periods, it favors operation during off-peak hours.
Make the most of every locally produced kWh: a winning bet
By maximizing your solar production usage, you reduce your grid dependency while boosting your installations’ profitability.
Purecontrol partners with Okwind, a solar equipment supplier, to provide end-to-end support and transform your intermittent production into a strategic resource — all without service interruption or manual adjustments.
What benefits for your installations?
Purecontrol allows you to fully leverage the flexibility of your equipment while maintaining operational continuity. The benefits are threefold:

Janzé maximizes self-consumption at its wastewater treatment plant with Purecontrol
In response to soaring energy prices, the municipality of Janzé (35) took action to reduce the energy bill of its wastewater treatment plant without compromising treatment quality. The town relied on a dual innovation: Purecontrol’s artificial intelligence to control aerators in real time and on-site solar production using Okwind trackers. Results:
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it necessary to add sensors or sub-meters to use Purecontrol?
The Purecontrol solution intelligently adapts its features to your site's existing environment, enabling optimal management without additional hardware investment. Industrial sites, even older ones, are full of data that is often underutilized.
If essential data is missing, our solution implements virtual sensors (virtual sub-meters, NH4 soft-sensors, etc.) to simulate this information, getting as close as possible to real-world data. Therefore, it is generally not necessary to install new sensors or sub-meters to benefit from effective control via Purecontrol.
I already have a supervision solution; what will Purecontrol add?
Purecontrol is a significant complement to your existing supervision solution. Our hypervision solution provides a 24-hour predictive view of your processes, allowing you to manage by anticipation rather than reacting to events. Most importantly, Purecontrol puts all the good ideas identified by your dashboards or previous diagnostics into action.
Our AI-based regulation solution interacts directly with your PLCs by sending real-time control commands to your equipment for proactive process management, optimized continuously. With Purecontrol, you will unlock the true potential of your data to see concrete benefits just weeks after installation.
How does Purecontrol communicate with industrial equipment?
The Purecontrol solution connects to your facility's PLC systems to acquire data and transmit control instructions to your equipment. Our system is compatible with all major brands on the market and supports a wide range of communication protocols, ensuring seamless and efficient integration with your existing infrastructure, whether centralized or on-premise.
How much does the Purecontrol solution cost?
Adopting Purecontrol is economically beneficial, offering both financial advantages (such as reduced production costs or lower reagent consumption) and operational benefits (including process stabilization, improved quality, and guaranteed discharge compliance). After an initial one-time setup fee, our software solution is offered as a monthly subscription with no long-term commitment, providing you with great flexibility.
