Sween

Development — smart collective self-consumption

The mission

Building the platform that controls collective solar self-consumption loops in real time: produce local, consume local, and share the energy across the buildings of a single community.

Period

2022 — 2025Startup, energy sector

Scope

  1. Real-time control of energy sharing within collective self-consumption loops.
  2. Collecting and exploiting production and consumption data (IoT, metering).
  3. Tools for energy communities and the people who run them.

Skills

  • Solar energy
  • Real-time control
  • IoT & metering
  • Energy communities

The context

Sween was a French pioneer in real-time control of collective self-consumption, built on patented technology. A demanding sector: physical constraints, energy regulation, and data that leaves no room for approximation.

What happened next

The Sween adventure ended in 2025. The technology, codebase and intellectual property were taken over by Sunbiose, who continue to roll out managed collective self-consumption.
