Digital platform for purchasing energy in the Free Market: understand how it works

Hiring electricity in the Free Energy Market has never been so simple. With intelligent digital platforms, companies can reduce costs, gain financial predictability and advance their sustainability goals — all 100% online and in a few minutes. Discover in this article how this technology works and how your company can procure energy strategically and economically.

What is the digital energy purchasing platform?

The digital energy purchasing platform is a technological solution that allows companies to contract electricity 100% online, eliminating bureaucracy and unnecessary intermediaries. With advanced data analysis, process automation and artificial intelligence features, these platforms turn energy negotiation into a simple, fast and transparent experience.

Serena Energia has developed a complete platform that combines cutting‑edge technology and humanized service. In a few clicks, companies access personalized proposals, compare prices in real time and sign contracts digitally with full legal security.

How does Serena's digital platform work?

The procurement journey on Serena's digital platform is divided into automated stages that combine technology and simplicity. From the initial registration to continuous management, each phase was designed to eliminate friction and deliver measurable results. See how it works:

Automated Registration and Intelligent Analysis

The process starts with a 100% digital registration where the company uploads documents such as the articles of incorporation and a recent electricity bill. The platform uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to automatically read all invoice information: amounts, consumption, contracted demand, tariff flags and taxes.

This technology eliminates the need for manual typing and reduces human errors, turning PDFs into structured data ready for analysis. Then, the platform performs an automated credit analysis and calculates the savings potential in minutes.

Real‑Time Proposals with Full Transparency

One of the main innovations of the digital platform is the ability to generate real‑time proposals. Unlike the traditional process that can take days or weeks, at Serena you define:

• Desired supply period;

• Required energy volume (in MWh);

• Source type (conventional or renewable).

The platform cross‑references this information with up‑to‑date market data and instantly displays the price. This transparency allows you to make informed decisions without relying on phone negotiations or endless email exchanges, speeding up the procurement in the Free Market.

Digital Signature and Legal Security

After the proposal is approved, the contract is automatically generated and sent for digital signature with ICP‑Brasil certification. The entire process has full legal validity and does not require in‑person authentications, ensuring speed without compromising security. The long‑term contracts are structured with clear clauses and contractual protections that guarantee predictability.

Automated Management and Smart Billing

The platform does not stop after the contract is signed. It offers continuous management with features such as:

• Automatic billing by email: receive monthly invoices directly in your inbox;

• Automatic document collection: set up access credentials and the platform automatically captures invoices every month;

• Real‑time monitoring: track consumption, costs and energy efficiency indicators 24/7;

• Smart alerts: notifications automatically about due dates, consumption fluctuations and savings opportunities.

Practical benefits of the digital platform

In addition to savings on the business electricity bill, the digital platform offers strategic advantages that directly impact the competitiveness and sustainability of the business. Discover the main benefits:

Reduction of TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)

Digitalization eliminates costs associated with:

• Printing and physical storage of documents;

• Travel for in‑person signatures;

• Rework due to manual typing errors;

• Fines for late payments (automatic alerts).

The resource optimization provided by automation results in real savings in the energy consumption calculation and in administrative management.

Financial Predictability

Medium‑ and long‑term contracts guarantee stability in energy costs, facilitating budget planning. The platform displays monthly and annual financial projections with accuracy, eliminating surprises on the bill.

Sustainability and ESG

Easy access to 100% renewable energy allows companies to quickly advance their decarbonization goals. The platform automatically calculates CO₂ emission reductions and generates reports compatible with ESG practices, supporting business sustainability in a measurable way.

Scalability

The platform supports everything from small companies with a single consumer unit to large corporations with hundreds of supply points. The cloud architecture ensures performance even with high data volumes.

Who is the digital energy platform for?

The solution is ideal for:

• Industries and factories: centralized management of multiple units with intensive consumption;

• Retail chains: individual monitoring of each store and corporate consolidation;

• Shopping centers: consumption control of common areas and satellite stores;

• Hospitals and laboratories: essential predictability for critical 24/7 operations.

Any company looking to reduce operational costs and join the Free Energy Market finds the digital platform the ideal solution.
