So, how did Heartbeat AI handle the “K2 and Everest” electricity price peaks? ⛰️⚡ We analysed the performance of thousands of 1KOMMA5° Sverige Heartbeats in southern Sweden, here’s what happened on the 8th and 9th of September 2025: While the market price spiked above 500 öre/kWh, Heartbeat automatically shifted consumption away from the most expensive hours, protecting our customers from unnecessary costs and lowering CO₂ emissions. 🙌 🔋 During the night, the battery fleet charged from the grid to avoid feed-in during the “K2” price peak. ☀️ During the day, most customers had enough PV capacity and sunlight to fully charge their batteries, avoiding the “Everest” peak in the evening. 👉 No manual planning. 👉 No lifestyle changes. 👉 Just smart, automated flexibility. Flexibility is the backbone of tomorrow’s energy system. With Heartbeat AI, it’s already reality today. 🚀

Phase One announces leadership transition After more than two decades at the helm, Henrik Håkonsson has decided to step down as CEO of Phase One and will continue to contribute as a member of the Board of Directors. Henrik has been instrumental in shaping both Phase One and Capture One – today two standalone companies – into global leaders, and his deep knowledge and passion will continue to benefit the company in this new role. Reflecting on the transition, Henrik says: “It has been a privilege to lead Phase One on this journey. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved together, and I am confident that Arne, with his experience and vision, will continue to build new success. I look forward to supporting the company in my new role on the Board.” From 1 September, Phase One welcomes Arne Dehn as the new CEO. Arne brings strong international experience from leading technology businesses through growth and transformation, most recently as CEO of STEMMER IMAGING. His customer focus, strategic insight and global outlook position him well to lead Phase One into its next chapter of global growth. “Phase One is renowned for its innovation and excellence in imaging. I am excited to join this talented team and to continue driving value for our customers worldwide, while building on the strong market position established under Henrik’s leadership,” says Arne Dehn. We are also welcoming Casper Jensen as the new Chairman of the Board. With deep leadership experience from Thrane & Thrane, Cobham and, currently, as CEO of Danelec, Casper has a proven track record in building and transforming technology companies and will provide strong leadership as Chairman of the Phase One Board.    Our majority owner, Axcel, highlights the importance of this transition:   “Arne is an excellent match for Phase One with the right capabilities to further strengthen the company's position in the premium imaging market and drive future growth. We are equally pleased to welcome Casper as Chairman and look forward to benefitting from his strong tech track record. And not least, we all owe a big thank you to Henrik for his enormous contribution to Phase One and Capture One over the past two decades – I am thrilled we will continue our close collaboration on the board,” says Co-Managing Partner Christian Bamberger Bro.
