Optimising your assets
We are happy to advise you on how to make your energy project perform to its full potential. We analyse financial opportunities. We identify opportunities to improve network performance. We take a close look at current contracts. We also use smart models to look ahead using data. This gives us an understanding of factors including energy prices, changing weather patterns and the system’s condition so that we can intervene at the right time.
“With proper maintenance and management, you can easily increase the yield of a large solar farm by 10 to 15%. We focus on optimum performance. Year in, year out, throughout the entire lifespan of the solar farm.”
Jan Klijnstra, Business Unit Director Klaer
Together, we map out your goals. We start by monitoring your installations. Ultimately, asset management is also data management. That means asking: are you settings correct? We check the inverters’ set points. We also take care of the project registration, so that we properly record the optimisation steps in the documentation. Then we can start the analysis cycles for advising on optimisation opportunities for your assets: technical, commercial and financial.
We closely monitor the risks. We identify and analyse problems at an early stage using detailed reports about the technical condition of the system. For example, we can check when it’s time to clean the panels by studying the output of the soiling sensors.
We look at your PPA contracts from a commercial perspective. If long-term certainty is one of your top priorities, it’s a good idea to hedge invoicing risks in the event of price fluctuations. Want to take advantage of energy market opportunities? A dynamic energy contract allows you to capitalise on the energy and imbalance markets to generate higher returns. In collaboration with our partners, we provide access to those markets and advise on smart energy strategies. We can also provide tax consultancy. Example: if you have a solar farm, we can let sheep graze there. This double purpose means we realise a lower WOZ value (your property value under the Dutch Valuation of Immovable Property Act). Administration also comes into play: how can we synchronise IT and deliver the specific reports you need?
We want to show you how we work.
