Increased efficiency through uniform plant monitoring and reporting

Efficiency and lean processes are key factors for the successful management of solar energy portfolios. This case study highlights the experience of SolarWorks GmbH and how they overcame challenges related to multiple monitoring systems and inefficient reporting by implementing Amperecloud's unified monitoring and reporting solutions.

SolarWorks GmbH faced the obstacle of using multiple monitoring systems in parallel, which hindered efficient monitoring of their portfolio. This led to data gaps and inefficient reporting, especially in communication with investors.

To address these challenges, SolarWorks GmbH implemented Amperecloud's cloud.vision Monitoring Professional, which replaced existing monitoring systems, including Solytic, Powerdoo, Fronius and SMA. The migration to the new system was performed without an on-site deployment to ensure a seamless transition. Manual monitoring processes were significantly reduced through the implementation of an automated ticketing system.

Jesper Laursen, Head of O&M at SolarWorks GmbH, explained, "Our previous system did not provide reliable remote monitoring, and we were tying up capacity by clicking through multiple portals."

- Portfolio (PV): 150 MWp
- Role: EPC, O&M
- Headquarters: Hobro, Denmark
- Market entry: 2012

By implementing Amperecloud's unified monitoring and reporting solutions, SolarWorks GmbH significantly improved its operational efficiency. The implementation of cloud.vision Monitoring Professional replaced multiple parallel monitoring systems and ensured a unified approach to monitoring the portfolio. This streamlined processes and eliminated the need for manual monitoring by introducing automated ticketing. As a result, SolarWorks GmbH was able to meet its monitoring requirements according to service level agreements (SLAs) with just a single full-time equivalent (FTE).

SolarWorks GmbH's success story with Amperecloud solutions exemplifies the benefits of unified asset monitoring and reporting in the solar industry. By replacing multiple monitoring systems and introducing automated ticketing, the company was able to increase efficiency and improve communication with investors. Amperecloud's cloud.vision Monitoring Professional enabled reliable remote monitoring and eliminated the need to navigate multiple portals. SolarWorks GmbH streamlined its operations, met monitoring requirements, and increased its overall efficiency to position itself for continued success in the marketplace.
