When should industry use Ferroman Spot Optimizer?

Electricity markets are becoming increasingly unpredictable. For energy-intensive industries, this volatility creates both challenges and new opportunities — where when electricity is used is becoming just as important as how much is consumed.

Navigate high and volatile electricity prices

During winter months, electricity prices are often high and subject to rapid fluctuations. In these conditions, the potential for cost savings is significant. By optimizing production with Ferroman Spot Optimizer, producers can actively reduce electricity costs without compromising production stability or output quality.

Turn low prices into competitive advantage

The opportunity does not stop at peak price reduction.

During periods of strong wind power generation and mild weather, electricity prices can drop sharply — and in some cases even turn negative. In these situations, the challenge is no longer to reduce consumption, but to increase production when electricity is inexpensive. Spot Optimizer supports this by identifying optimal operating windows that align production with favorable price levels.

Smarter maintenance planning

Spot Optimizer’s price forecasts also support maintenance and shutdown planning. Planned stops can be scheduled during high-price periods rather than low-price ones — reducing opportunity costs and improving overall energy efficiency.

Designed for complex industrial processes

Ferroman Spot Optimizer is particularly well suited for:

  • Energy-intensive production

  • Processes with pronounced power peaks

  • Operations with complex and dynamic load profiles

Industrial partners using Spot Optimizer have achieved 5–20% reductions in total electricity costs, depending on process flexibility and market conditions.
