PROESIS
Who are we ?
Since our founding, we have focused on our major area of expertise, energy, through utility production, advanced energy audits, and intelligent energy metering. We offer software and services tailored to the client's needs to manage their energy.
Fostering a "service" approach with our current and future clients means envisioning long-term partnerships by positioning ourselves as a supplier that is at once close, reliable, and highly responsive.
In addition to optimized real-time energy management, since 2017 we have been working on developing new, innovative tools that are capable of taking into account the growing complexity of processes.
Industrial processes are indeed increasingly operating outside steady state and stable conditions. The energy transition and the development of renewable energy sources, the need for production flexibility, the very high variability of energy prices... All of this makes optimal energy management very complex.
Energy prices changed twice a year when Proesis was founded. Today, the price of electricity on the SPOT market is managed on an hourly basis, and there are even adjustment mechanisms that require the industrial company to react within half an hour.
Today, energy is stored and released in various forms: hot water, hydrogen, electric batteries, and it is necessary to decide when to store and when to discharge. Energy management tools must:
-
Incorporate these constraints, which are also tremendous levers of performance, provided that flexibility is managed properly.
-
Simultaneously handle production issues, the "process," and the associated energy, whether in consumption or in production (electrical cogeneration, waste heat, etc.).
Our history
1997, Philippe Baudet submits his thesis and works on a project stemming from TotalEnergies' R&D dedicated to utility production management: the Ariane software. That same year, Philippe Baudet meets Jean Paul Gourlia, who will give him a taste for utility management and energy efficiency. Jean Paul will guide him throughout his career and will be his mentor.
Until 2016, Philippe Baudet will have a career in a private company; his field of activity remains utility production management, intelligent energy metering, and advanced energy audits.
2016, Philippe Baudet decides to create Proesis. The previous activities are maintained within their own structure. Proesis also turns toward teaching, and as instructors, Philippe Baudet and several team members give courses to students at the A7 and the IUT of chemical engineering in Toulouse.
2017, Proesis launches its first R&D project dedicated to energy planning. This marks the beginning of major undertakings for the company, which shifts toward models more relevant for the future, moving from real-time optimization to energy management planning and scheduling tools.
2021, the end of the R&D project gives rise to the PLANENER software.
2022, Proesis carries out the HeatOptim R&D project to continue its progress in managing the flexibility and variability of energy challenges, notably including the consideration of renewable energy sources, energy storage/release options, price variability, and the growing flexibility of processes.
June 2026, Proesis celebrates its 10th anniversary, the age of maturity. Our transformation is complete; we now offer and market our POWERFULL platform.
