We use data from the field to predict the energy demand and come up with an efficient and reliable power plan. In order to process all the data and limit manual calculations, we have developed Powerplan. This way, we create your power plan with just a few mouse clicks.
When we first started monitoring the power consumption at festivals, it quickly became clear that the power supply for these types of projects can be at least 50% more efficient. This is because diesel generators are used for less than 20% of their capacity in four out of five cases.
We now know that this is not only the case at festivals, but also in construction, in ports and airports, for temporary projects run by network operators, and for seasonal consumers such as campsites, where a diesel generator is now often used. By setting up an efficient power plan, you can determine the optimal set-up for your project and increase efficiency. This can save costs, as well as prevent any problems due to proper planning.
Powerplan uses a predictive algorithm that uses our expert knowledge, combined with data on how energy is consumed in a wide variety of cases, to predict a consumption profile for new projects.
You can search for a combination of power sources yourself, or let our optimization model calculate the optimal solution for your specific situation.
In Powerplan, energy users are divided into power zones. Based on the expected energy demand of all users, you determine the infrastructure needed for a reliable power supply. Several parties can work simultaneously on a project to enter the data relevant to them.
Powerplan also registers which infrastructure is already present. A small grid connection or a few solar panels, for example, can be included in the optimisation. Next, the Powerplan algorithm makes a proposal for the energy storage and generation that is needed.
Because everything is linked, adding or removing a user is no problem at all. Powerplan immediately shows where changes occur or problems arise.
On the basis of a fully developed power plan, an accurate estimate can be made of the expected energy consumption at any time. In addition, peak consumption can be better predicted. Both help to create a reliable power plan, without overcapacity.
Predicting energy consumption is not only important in the preparation of the project. Also during the project, our autonomous control software and forecasting always guarantee the most optimal energy generation.
