A Short Note from Your Future Lead

Steffen Schülzchen - Founder & CEO

Hi there!

I'm Steffen, the Founder and CEO of Entrix.

My journey to the energy industry came as a surprise. After completing my business and technology management studies, I began my career in consulting, eager to work with automotive and high-tech companies. However, my first project was with a large energy company, and I’ve been in the industry ever since. For me, it’s the ideal sector to create lasting positive impacts on society while building a successful business — true sustainability in action!

I’m passionate about our work at Entrix because we’re at the forefront of the energy transition. The complexity of the technical challenges we tackle fascinates me. The energy system is the most complex machine humans have ever built and our goal is to make it work much more intelligently.

For me, it’s important to create a work environment defined by autonomy. I aim to provide an environment where you have full ownership over your function and initiatives. That being said, you can of course always count on me to collaborate closely to get a project started, sparing ideas, tackling tough challenges, or to remove roadblocks. I take great joy from this!

Speak soon!

About Us

With our AI-powered fully automated optimization and trading platform for flexible energy assets from grid-scale batteries to virtual power plants, we ensure that energy is stored when it is abundant and released into the grid when it is needed. At the same time, by actively trading electricity, we counteract strong price fluctuations that green energies entail. Figuring out how storage provides the best value to the electricity grid and the highest returns to asset owners is how we accelerate the transition to a clean energy future.
