enechain to Launch SaaS Demand-Supply Management System "eBalance" in Fall 2026

enechain Inc. will officially release its SaaS-based demand-supply management system, "eBalance" (hereinafter referred to as "the System"), around the fall of 2026. In advance of this, we have begun accepting applications for a free trial starting today.

The System is an integrated platform for demand-supply management operations, equipped with basic functions such as demand forecasting, ordering to the JEPX spot and day-ahead markets, and plan submission, as well as advanced ordering functions utilizing actual cost calculations and logic settings. It will support the full-scale renewal of the JEPX trading system at the time of release and will also sequentially support the balancing market.

The development team for the System includes several members with extensive practical experience from former general electric utilities and new power companies. Based on numerous voices from businesses, such as "I want to complete the morning demand-supply check, which requires switching between multiple screens, on a single screen," "I accept daily bids to JEPX as routine work, but I actually want to perform calculations and bids aimed at maximizing profits," and "I want to improve the accuracy of demand forecasting and reduce imbalances by even 1kWh," we are developing "functions that the field truly wanted" in-house, which have not been realized by existing systems.

The System offers functional plans and pricing structures tailored to the scale and needs of electric utilities. It also features support for English interfaces and distributed server deployment across multiple data centers, designed for a wide range of users, including overseas companies considering entry into the Japanese market, to use comfortably and with peace of mind.

As an operator of an electricity wholesale marketplace, we understand the power industry and stand alongside businesses to solve their challenges. Through improving the quality of orders to JEPX with this System, suppressing imbalance costs, increasing the operational efficiency of demand-supply managers, and supporting end-to-end hedging and actual supply-demand operations in conjunction with our other systems, we will comprehensively contribute to building the business foundation and improving the profitability of electric utilities.

Inquiries regarding the free trial are as follows. We also welcome information exchange regarding demand-supply management operations.

About the Free Trial

During the free trial, we will first broadly understand your concerns and interests regarding demand-supply management operations and provide guidance on how to utilize the System. After the official release, verification with actual data in a production environment will be possible. We will also provide support for operations during the parallel operation period with your current system.
