About us: A startup spirit within a large company
The Flexible Power Solutions team supports TotalEnergies' ambitions in low-carbon energy. Dynamic and responsive, the company benefits from all of the company's expertise. It is part of the GRP (Gas Renewables & Power) business line, which is expected to account for 30% of TotalEnergies' revenues by 2030.
Our history
TotalEnergies was quick to recognise that the electricity market would become increasingly complex and decentralised. It was one of the first companies to structure itself to meet the specific needs of producers, grid operators, electricity consumers and storage operators.
- 2008: Creation of BHC Energy, an energy performance consulting company
- 2014: Total enters the aggregation business by acquiring BHC Energy
- 2016 : BHC Energy accelerates its development by joining Total's GRP division
- 2019 : BHC Energy rebranded as Total Flex, specialist in power recovery and flexibility
- 2021 : While Total becomes TotalEnergies, Total Flex takes the explicit name of Flexible Power Solutions
