VPP-The pioneer relies on Wilken software for direct marketing, accounting and archiving.
Ulm/Essen. e2m, ENERGY to MARKET, a direct marketing company and pioneer in the field of virtual power plants (VPP), will be working with solutions from the Wilken Software Group in future. Specifically, the company is relying on the Wilken ENER:GY direct marketing industry software. As a result, e2m now has a comprehensive billing system for various energy generation plants and a standardized, yet individual mapping of a wide range of product constellations. This is crucial for the extremely complex billing processes within VPP, as electricity and flexibilities are traded here around the clock in real time. In accounting, e2m will also be using Wilken ERP on a P/5 basis in the general ledger with the associated incoming invoice management and connection to the Wilken Cloud Archive. The company is thus consistently focusing on digitalization and automation, as AI-supported incoming invoice management enables highly efficient and fully digital invoice processing with fast checking and approval processes.
“As part of a tendering process, we placed our extensive requirements on the market and examined various system solutions. In the end, Wilken was the most convincing in its ability to implement our “lead to market process” and individual billing requirements with its software solution. With Wilken, we are building on a much more compact system landscape at e2m. At the same time, we will be able to execute core processes with a high degree of automation and increase our flexibility for future product developments and adaptations. Thus, COO (Chief Operating Officer), Yvonne Findeisen of e2m. On the Wilken side, CCO (Chief Customer Officer) Tobias Mann is looking forward to the cooperation: “Our solution for direct marketing from the Wilken ENER:GY product world makes the work of direct marketers much easier thanks to its high degree of automation and standardization. We are delighted that e2m, one of Germany’s largest companies in this sector, now relies on our technology and expertise.”
In addition to the energy market-specific software, Wilken was also able to impress e2m with its ERP system from the P/5 product family. The digital incoming invoice management is also used here. This automatically and AI-supported compares the incoming invoice data with the stored master data and checks the relevant document data for consistency, completeness and accuracy.
The contract between e2m and Wilken was signed at the Wilken Software Group’s trade fair stand at E-world on May 24.

Die Bundesnetzagentur (BNetzA) hat am 27. August 2025 die Ausschreibung für Biomasseanlagen eröffnet. Grundlage sind die alten Regeln des EEG 2023, weil das Biomassepaket 2025 noch nicht von der EU-Kommission genehmigt wurde. Das Problem: Erst mit der beihilferechtlichen Genehmigung durch Brüssel können die neuen Vorgaben angewandt werden.

Everyone is talking about battery storage. Many providers – especially start-ups – promise astronomical revenues in the SRL market. But a look at the official data from the German Federal Cartel Office shows that none of these start-ups are in the top 5 SRL marketers. Instead, one name stands out: Energy2market – the only major provider for small and medium-sized plants alongside corporate giants such as RWE and EnBW. Why? Because we simply do prequalification better.
news
E2m is the leading provider of decentralized negative Frequency restoration reserve (SRL) in Germany. This is also confirmed by the Bundeskartellamt’s latest report on the balancing power market: no other provider has prequalified more decentralized systems for the provision of negative SRL. That’s more than just a title – it’s a real advantage for e2m customers.

e2m launches new product for even more flexibility that automates curtailment in the event of negative prices in a smart way and makes it economically attractive – even for smaller PV systems. For a 2.1 MWp system, this means up to 6 percent additional yield – around €6,000 extra per year.
news
HoBohTec GmbH relies on e2m as a partner for the connection and marketing of its first own battery storage system. Thanks to lean processes and close coordination, the modular “Powerhouse” system was quickly integrated into the grid and optimally utilized – a pilot project that serves as a model for other systems.

In this interview, Kurt Kretschmer, Head of Legal & Compliance at e2m, explains why the economic pressure on solar system operators is likely to intensify further – and why flexible solutions such as Storage are the key to remaining profitable even in times of frequently negative electricity prices.
