Managing Director

Energy Data GmbH

  • Energy-Data-as-a-Service: Do you need a specific data set for your energy management system?

  • The energy baseline is always a snapshot of energy metrics under given reference conditions.

  • Changes in reference conditions can have a big impact on energy performance and must be normalized for analysis – ISO 50001 calls this normalization.

  • A simple example is the weather’s effect on heating demand, which is normalized using degree days.

  • Some energy data are available to you immediately and can be integrated directly into your systems via an interface – from simple Excel files to professional energy management software.

  • Energy consulting: Do you need expert advice on an energy issue?

  • From implementing an energy management system to energy efficiency measures and technology consulting: as an independent partner, I’m here to advise you!

Summary

As an efficiency manager and energy consultant, I lower your energy costs and help you contribute to climate neutrality.

My motivation: We release 51 billion tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere every year, fueling climate change. We have to bring that number down to ZERO! We can’t achieve the energy transition by using renewable energy alone; we must also make the best use of the energy we generate. The cleanest and cheapest kilowatt-hour is the one you save. The business motivation is to increase margins by cutting costs and use the contribution to climate neutrality as a marketing tool to stand out from the competition.

My qualifications: In my career as a graduate industrial engineer, I’ve worked on many exciting strategic projects focused on sustainability and that required new technologies. As a consultant, I helped drive the development of the first electric cars in the VW Group (2012–2015) and later worked on heat transition concepts for a district heating provider. Since early 2020, I’ve been working across industries as a freelance consultant in project and energy management, and in early 2021 I founded Energy Data GmbH. As a TÜV-certified energy management officer and certified project manager (IPMA Level D, Scrum Master, PRINCE2), I not only create concepts and strategies for my clients but also implement their projects!

My goal: As a neutral and independent consultant, I guide companies and energy managers toward an energy-efficient, sustainable organization. From providing energy data to targeted consulting to acting as the energy management representative—I support you professionally and transparently. Because only an efficient company can be a competitive company. Not sure where to start with energy management in your organization? In a quick check, we’ll identify the biggest opportunities together and create an initial action plan.
