PNE AG: Successful year 2025 for the Wattmate marketing platform
- Digital power marketing established
- New revenue potential for 2026 in sight
Cuxhaven, 16 February 2026 – With the launch of the Wattmate digital platform last year, the PNE Group has consistently developed its existing PPA-as-a-Service business. This is reflected in the platform's strong success: in 2025 alone, 80 wind, PV and battery storage projects with an installed output of around 1.1 gigawatts were successfully supported in the course of power marketing.
Wattmate serves a clear market trend. The marketing of renewable power generation is becoming increasingly complex and, at the same time, critical to success. Additional marketing potential is coming to the fore more strongly than in the past – not only through medium and long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), but also through the choice of a project-specific value-maximising form of marketing, the combination of different types of generators or the provision of system services.
„Marketing potential is increasingly determining the economic viability of a project,“ explains Nils Kompe, Head of Power Origination & Green Markets at PNE. „Standard assumptions often fall short in this regard. In future, project-specific, market-oriented and cross-technology marketing approaches will be in demand.“
A new and key trend is the topic of „Co‑Location Battery Storage Systems“ i.e. Battery Storage Systems that are located at the same site as renewable generation plants and use the same grid connection. These are now being discussed intensively not only in the context of photovoltaic projects but also in wind energy projects. The intelligent combination of generation and flexibility enables more stable revenue profiles and opens up new marketing options.
„Wattmate allows these aspects to be taken into account holistically. The platform combines market transparency, structuring expertise and operational experience. It thus builds a bridge between project development, financing and marketing,“ adds Nils Kompe.
