Steddion and Withthegrid partner to secure energy access for logistics and industrial sites
Steddion and Withthegrid are partnering to help logistics and industrial sites maintain energy security, even when grid capacity is limited. By using the Teleport Gateway, Steddion can monitor the energy assets and provide smart local control.
Logistics and industrial real estate companies face an important decision: how can we create an energy strategy that supports growth while making the most effective use of our grid connection, even under grid constraints?
SteddionAbout Steddion:
Energy should never be a question mark. At Steddion, we make sure it isn’t. In a world where the electricity grid can’t always keep up and reliability is under pressure, we ensure energy is always there when you need it.
We are a specialist in energy solutions for logistics and industrial real estate. We design, build, manage and finance integrated energy systems that guarantee energy availability—today and in the future. Our solutions combine solar energy, battery storage, smart grids and advanced energy management systems into one intelligent ecosystem. Independent, transparent and always tailored to your business case.
Steddion was founded in 2019 by Gideon Overwater, Frank Heijckmann, Rob van Gestel and Willem van der Heijden. With a background in companies such as KiesZon and PVO International—pioneers in solar energy for large-scale real estate—the founders bring decades of experience in developing and scaling energy solutions.
That experience shapes how we work: pragmatic, independent and focused on certainty. develops future-proof energy strategies. They design, finance, and build local energy systems (combining solar power, battery storage, and charging infrastructure) so that your company can continue to run, even when it is under pressure.
But installing the energy assets is only the first step. A site with a battery, a solar roof, and a row of truck chargers needs a way to manage those assets. If they all draw or export power at the same time, the site risks exceeding its contracted grid limits.
This is why Steddion is partnering with Withthegrid,If you don’t know us: Withthegrid’s mission is to deliver technology that enables a connected, secure, and resilient energy ecosystem. We do it via the Teleport Gateway, a local controller that securely connects renewable energy assets to the cloud, unlocking real-time remote control and local optimization for asset owners and traders. and now installs the Teleport Gateway at all their customer locations. The Teleport connects the solar inverters, batteries, and chargers to the cloud and allows for real-time monitoring and control.
This setup provides three specific benefits:
- Clear monitoring: Steddion and the site operators get visibility into their energy data and system performance.
- Safe local control: The Teleport runs local control loops to optimize energy flows “behind-the-meter”. It ensures that the battery absorbs excess solar power, or shaves peak demand from the EV chargers, keeping the entire site strictly within its grid connection limits.
- Energy trader integrations: Energy assets can generate extra money when it is not supporting local operations. The Teleport connects directly with energy suppliers and traders to allow the site to participate in energy and flexibility markets.
Micha van Son, Manager Operations at Steddion, elaborates on the decision:
Jaap Willems, Senior Business Development at Withthegrid, adds:
Even if your company or site is facing grid constraints, there are options. Contact Steddion to assess your local energy system, or learn how the Teleport Gateway connects it all.
