Insight into and control over your energy. That’s what Repowered’s smart energy providers are all about. But who are the people behind the company? Get to know them in the series “The Energy Managers.” This time, we’re talking to Bridget Sandbothe, Smart Energy Consultant at Repowered.
“As a consultant at Repowered, I help clients with a wide range of questions and challenges related to their energy systems. My focus is primarily on energy hubs: groups of companies that collectively experience grid congestion.”
Many of these companies want to expand or become more sustainable. This could involve adding an extra production line, electrifying their vehicle fleets, or switching from gas to electricity for their processes. However, in many areas, there isn’t enough grid capacity available to accommodate that growth. In most cases, it will take years before the grid is expanded.
Data-driven advice on complex energy issues
“And that’s where we come in! Together with our customers, we explore which solutions are actually feasible. This might involve determining how much additional solar energy they can install, whether a battery is a good option and what size would be appropriate, or setting up a group contract. In fact, every situation is unique, and we’re always looking for the right combination of solutions.”
No two projects are alike
“What makes my work challenging is that there are no standard solutions. Every project requires a different approach, and you’re constantly innovating and adapting. That keeps my work varied and keeps me on my toes. It’s precisely that variety that makes it fun.”
“I truly believe in what we’re doing here”
“What I like about working at Repowered is that everyone shares the same ambition: to contribute to the energy transition. That creates a strong sense of shared purpose. I work with smart, dedicated colleagues who are truly committed to thinking ahead and making a difference.”
The power of data and expertise
“What sets Repowered apart is the way we provide data-driven advice. We use our models to simulate energy systems and base our advice not on assumptions, but on concrete analyses. This allows us to deliver truly customized solutions rather than generic ‘one-size-fits-all’ advice.”
“In addition, the team’s broad expertise is a major strength. There’s always someone with in-depth knowledge of a specific topic, whether it’s congestion, batteries, hydrogen, or market mechanisms. That combination of expertise allows us to respond quickly and effectively to complex issues.”
