Among the anticipated highlights at E-world 2026 is a joint live presentation by Lead Consult and CyberGrid, showcasing an integrated solution for flexibility marketing. CyberGrid, an energy flexibility management specialist, and Lead Consult, a provider of energy IT and middleware solutions, have collaborated on a “full ready-to-go setup for flexibility marketing” to be unveiled at the event.
The joint session is scheduled for Wednesday, 11 February 2026 at 11:00 AM at CyberGrid’s booth (Hall 1, Stand B130). This timing coincides with CyberGrid’s daily live demo slot – the company is running a CyberNoc software demonstration each day at 11:00 during the fair. On 11 February, the session will feature experts from both CyberGrid and Lead Consult, together illustrating the integrated platform in action. Attendees can expect a hands-on demonstration of how the two companies’ technologies work in tandem to streamline the marketing of flexible energy resources. The joint session on 11 Feb provides a unique opportunity for participants to see both companies’ solutions operating as one, and to engage directly with the teams behind this integration.
Integrating CyberNoc with Universal Loader: Architecture and Use Case
CyberGrid’s CyberNoc platform is an advanced Virtual Power Plant (VPP) and flexibility management software that enables utilities, aggregators, and asset owners to monetize distributed energy resources across multiple electricity markets. It automates the aggregation of flexible assets and executes trading and control strategies in day-ahead, intraday, and balancing (ancillary services) markets. Lead Consult’s Universal Loader, on the other hand, is an enterprise middleware solution – a platform-agnostic enterprise service bus (ESB) designed to connect and transfer data between disparate energy systems and trading platforms. In essence, Universal Loader provides a flexible integration bridge that can be tailored to different markets and data formats, enabling “plug-and-play” interoperability between software systems.
This bidirectional integration effectively automates the entire workflow of flexibility marketing: from initial data preparation and forecasting, through market bidding, to dispatch and performance reporting. The market-agnostic integration approach ensures that the same setup can be used across different power markets or products (e.g. different countries’ day-ahead exchanges or various balancing services) without redevelopment. The use of open RESTful APIs and a configuration-driven middleware means the solution can be adapted quickly to new requirements or additional data sources, highlighting its extensibility and interoperability.
Key highlights
- Market-agnostic integration
- Interoperability
- Fast time-to-market
- Automated decision-making
- Transparency across systems
