The agreement to acquire 100% of ProCom GmbH was announced in July and closed on October 1 according to plan. Volue will add three million euros in annual recurring revenues, approximately 60 employees, and over 60 customers to its business through the acquisition.

"The acquisition of ProCom strengthens our position in the segment of small and medium-sized power producers and will give us a stronger footprint in Germany, Austria and Switzerland," says Trond Straume, Chief Executive Officer of Volue.

ProCom is headquartered in Aachen, Germany and has offices in Cologne and Berlin. With a proud heritage as a family business, ProCom has provided leading technology solutions for more than 40 years to the energy sector and adjacent industries.

"Volue has an ambitious growth and expansion strategy. ProCom plays an essential role in achieving our goals. We look forward to working with the ProCom team in expanding their offering and market presence in this growing and changing industry, "says Straume.

A joint ambition is to reduce carbon emissions and accelerate the green transition. "Like Volue, ProCom is committed to ensuring the efficient use of scarce resources while increasing resilience for its clients, "says Straume.

October 1 marks the first day of a 100-day post-merger integration program designed to ensure business continuity for ProCom's customers and people. The program's goal is to begin taking advantage of synergies between ProCom and the rest of Volue and prepare the rebranding of ProCom, while securing the availability and further development of core products like BoFiTt, a tool for production planning and optimisation and considered as an industry standard for many European clients.
