Gorilla VP of Product Joris Van Genechten discusses why energy retailers must strengthen their data foundations before adopting AI, turning technology into a trustworthy operational core.
Gorilla launches Explorer, which recalculates margin on fixed-price contracts as costs and forecasts move after signature, helping B2B energy retailers identify emerging risks to gross margin sooner and bring the evidence into pricing and book reviews.
Helping commercial teams protect margin, price competitively, and forecast with confidence.
UK energy retail is entering a new phase of complexity. Volatility remains an operating reality, while electrification, flexible energy consumption and new technologies are changing how energy is generated, consumed and priced. At the same time, the transition to Market-wide Half-Hourly Settlement (MHHS) is reshaping the industry’s data and settlement landscape, bringing more granular consumption data, and creating new demands and opportunities for how retailers understand and respond to customer behaviour. Retailers are responding with more sophisticated products and propositions, against this backdrop of continued regulatory pressure and intense competition.
With Gorilla, retailers can turn MHHS data into clear insights that help customers bring down their energy bills. Customers get a detailed view of how and when they use energy. That puts them in control of their own consumption and gives them a reason to act on it.
