OPERATION Module

Real-time optimisation for smarter production planning.

The OPERATION module is typically used to find the optimal production for an energy plant within a short time period – e.g. used for production follow-up.

Take Full Control of Your Plant

Short-Term Planning Made Simple

The OPERATION module is designed for high-resolution production planning — ideal for daily or intraday optimisation of energy plant output.

Smarter Inputs, Smarter Outputs

Incorporate critical factors like:

Initial energy storage levels
Forecasted electricity prices
Anticipated energy demands

This enables data-driven, optimised operation of your energy system — hour by hour.

Detailed Control Over Time

Define optimisation periods down to the minute and generate production schedules that reflect real-world dynamics and constraints.

Operation loss calculation

If your plant experiences equipment breakdowns, insurance often covers losses in operational costs. With OPERATION, you can quickly and accurately estimate the income your plant could have generated during the downtime—compared to your actual results. This enables transparent claims and informed decision-making for your business continuity.

Turn insights into action

with precise short-term production plans.
