Plan energy projects faster.

Keaflow optimizes the sizing of distributed energy systems — technically and economically, precise and transparent. No Excel sheets with averages, no rules of thumb, no guessed system sizes.

The problem

Energy system design takes too long today — and delivers too little certainty.

Most sizing happens in Excel models that scale up a "typical day." Component sizes are guessed, then iteratively adjusted. Economics gets calculated in a second tool, PV in a third, subsidy eligibility in a fourth.

Professional optimization tools exist — but they are complex and far from practice-oriented. They solve the math problem but don't translate it into the daily workflow of consultancies and planning offices.

The result: slow proposals, oversized systems, missed subsidies, weak business cases.

What changes

One optimization. Three tools replaced.

Instead of separate models for sizing, economics, and PV, you get optimized component sizes, an hourly dispatch schedule, and complete financial metrics in a single run.

Everything in one tool

All tools. One tool. Keaflow.

Technical sizing, financial analysis, and PV planning in one integrated optimization — no tool switching, no model breaks.

01 / Sizing

Technical sizing

The cost-optimal size of every component — solved together with the hourly dispatch schedule in one step. Heat, power, and cooling in a single model.

02 / Economics

Economic analysis

TCO, NPV, IRR, ROI, LCOE/LCOH/LCOC, nominal and discounted payback, full cashflow. Automatically from the same optimization — not from a separate Excel.

03 / PV

PV sizing

Self-consumption, feed-in tariffs, subsidy eligibility, and storage cycles are co-optimized. PV size follows from the economics, not from a rule of thumb.

Why Keaflow

Three things that make the difference.

01
Precise results, at last — no guesswork.
No estimates, no averages, no rough assumptions. Keaflow runs every hour of the year and finds the system sizes and operating schedule that, in total, cost the least. The result isn't "roughly right" — it's provably the most cost-efficient solution for your project.
02
A modern web app. Your data stays with you.
Keaflow is a web app — no installation, no plug-in. Open the browser and start. Unlike classic SaaS tools, your project data never leaves your device: load profiles, configurations, and results are stored locally in your browser. The convenience of SaaS with the privacy of desktop software.
03
Hands-on support from the Keaflow team.
You're not alone with the tool. We guide you through onboarding, help with complex projects, and build features along real-world requirements from practice. A direct line to the team — not a ticket hotline.
Use cases

What Keaflow is used for.

From a single PV system to a sector-coupled district — Keaflow runs the projects you work on every day.

PV with battery storage

Calculate the optimal PV size and storage capacity together. Self-consumption rate, feed-in tariffs, and storage cycles are co-optimized — not derived from rules of thumb. For commercial, industrial, and multi-family buildings.

Modernize heat supply

Gas boiler out — what comes in? Keaflow compares heat pumps, hybrid solutions, pellet boilers, and CHP units against the existing system. Including subsidy eligibility and an hourly dispatch schedule across the full year.

Sector coupling — power & heat

Heat pump plus PV plus battery plus thermal storage — what runs when, and at what size does each pay off? Keaflow solves the coupling in one model instead of three separate tools.

Cooling supply & data centers

Compression chillers, absorption cooling, free cooling, cold storage. For office buildings, production sites, and data centers with high year-round cooling demand.

CHP sizing

Economically viable CHP sizes for industry and districts. Heat-led versus power-led operation is evaluated head-to-head — including peak-load boilers and thermal storage.

District & area networks

Multiple buildings, multiple energy carriers, one energy concept. Keaflow consolidates load profiles and optimizes central supply — ideal for utilities and project developers.

Results

Results that go straight to the client.

Hourly dispatch, annual load duration curve, energy flows, subsidy eligibility. Print-ready in one click — what otherwise takes days of copy-pasting between tools.
