The Volue Energy Services product line consists of more than 100 employees serving 280 customers in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Germany, with growing customer bases in each country.
Following the deal closing, Tomi Pesonen has been appointed as Senior Vice President and head of Volue Energy Services. He joins after holding the director position with Enerim’s Wholesale Markets.
On his appointment, he said: “I am proud to take on this role at what is an incredibly exciting time for the business. Today is good news for our customers, our employees and the wider industry sector in general. Together we become a market leader and now have the best capabilities to support our clients in flexible energy markets over the coming years.”

The technology, expertise and competence this deal brings to Volue, is a substantial step forward in creating an effective and scalable operation, beneficial to our customers.
“I have no doubt that Volue Energy Services will be the undisputed Nordic market leader over the coming years, providing the perfect platform for further growth within European markets. Today is just the that start of the journey.”
