Challenge
Working in the deregulated energy field requires a significant investment in infrastructure. Our client in this case neeed tools to both manage and predict the energy requirements across a vast network of sites.
The challenge was to implement a user friendly, simple solution to address the complexity of mixed outputs in diverse locations using different technologies, while keeping an eye on market conditions for storage or sales options.

Solution
What is Grid Balancing?
The key to energy balancing is understanding that deregulated energy markets make electricity more expensive when demand is high.
If you generate and store energy, your advantage is in having that power on demand. When selling to the grid, you time a sale to meet the demand curve.
If you are running multiple sites with different energy producing elements, it is important to know when to add in time for maintenance and repair. By knowing your trend and output needs, it is easier to calculate downtime.
