Renewable Management System
Slowly but surely the world has woken up to the importance of renewable energy. Global warming and climate change, along with increasing consumption and the dwindling of fossil fuel sources, are driving the development of clean energy towards sustainability. And this has only reinforced the need for renewable energy sources such as sunlight, wind and waves.
The challenge
With the clamour for sustainable energy reaching fever pitch, companies are turning to renewable energy. But this increasing demand for renewable energy will come with technical and operational challenges, where safety and reliability are critical. Adding to the worry is a pool of diverse production
assets in remote locations that need to be managed. Once captured, controlling, managing and transmitting energy to the grid in line with regulations is the biggest challenge.
These challenges have to be tackled while considering the huge numbers of wind turbines that will spring up in the next few years, plans for which are already underway. And for these to function successfully, both energy markets and transmission networks need to move up a gear. It is also vital to manage these assets efficiently and in a timely manner to ensure the sustained growth of renewable energy sources.
Our answer
The ability to provide a platform that enables integrated processes across the organisation: this is what Logica can bring to the table. The platform works across the organisation from field activities to top management. Be it maintenance, GIS or trading, it enables the proactive and efficient management of wind assets and operations. This is achieved by giving greater insight to wind farm owners and operators, finance, traders and maintenance staff, along with the ability to make timely, strategic decisions.
Key benefits :
- Faster reaction to failures, decrease
downtime and maintenance costs
- Supports all major turbine vendors and
controls wind farms remotely
- Manages multiple warranties and
service level agreements (SLAs)
- Allows immediate connection to the
grid and support for power trading and
settlement
- Maximises performance of the renewable assets
