About us

Our analytical software embedded in the KYOS Analytical Platform is based on a thorough understanding of energy markets and strong financial-mathematical algorithms. Our customers are mostly large international companies in the energy and commodity industries. They operate across Europe and beyond, and use our solutions to make optimal investment decisions, manage price risks, optimize the use of their assets (power plants, energy storage, renewable power projects and PPAs), make optimal trading decisions, and assess future market price scenarios.

Our customers use our software and approach us for individual consulting assignments as well. The challenges faced by energy market participants increasingly require a combination of quantitative models and a thorough understanding of market developments. All of this must be supported by high-quality data and continuous research.
