Optimize for Revenue Maximization

• Maximize Flexibility in Bigger Reservoirs
  Get precise on Your ”time travel of water”. Large reservoirs are optimized for market opportunities, while smaller units react preemptively to minimize water losses and secure valuable turbine runtime‍.

• Follow Above & Follow Below Protocols
  Your asset is only as flexible as your most inflexible storage in the cascade. Optimize your entire topology with this constraint in mind: the more rigid reservoir is aligned with the more flexible plan above or below.

• Gate Driven Dispatch
  Optimize upstream gates in line with power prices and water value to ensure downstream turbines outperform the market, while in level regulation.

‍

• Proactive Seasonal Inflow Management
  Harness the full capacity of large reservoirs to anticipate seasonal inflows, ensuring water is dispatched at the most profitable times while safeguarding reliability and compliance.

• Integrated Short, Medium & Long-Term Planning
  Balance immediate operational needs with medium-term market opportunities and long-term strategic storage, creating a resilient plan that adapts across time horizons.

• From Market Order to Flexible Limit Order Bidding
  Shift away from rigid, block-based generation toward price-driven dispatch and bidding strategies that align production with dynamic price signals, for higher revenue potential.

‍

• Inflow Forecasting
  Accurate short‑term inflow predictions enabled thorough catchment area analysis and machine learning forecast models, allow operators to plan generation with confidence and reduce volatility.

• Operate RoR as a Flexible Asset
  Treat the intake as a small storage unit, creating upside by optimizing available full load hours.

• Negative Price Prevention
  Apply limit order bidding with negative price thresholds (green certificate dependent), diverting water through the gate when needed.

‍

• Optimization for Closed & Open Loop Systems
• Model any level of topology complexity, whether open or closed loop. Distinct algorithms are applied to account for the specific characteristics of each setup.

• Cycle Efficiency
• Best‑point optimization looks different for pumps, turbines, and pump‑turbine units. Allign all of them simultaneously to deliver maximum output at minimum cost.

• Holistic Optimization
• Ensure pumped storage is used as a proactive revenue driver rather than a reactive tool. We test all relevant variables to provide a production plan that uses all flexibility across ancillary services and day‑ahead markets.

• Portfolio View‍
• While your plants should be operated individually following personalized strategies, the portfolio view helps you identify outliers - either underperforming assets or successful ones - by showing you real-time snapshots of your entire portfolio.

• Reporting‍
• Get in-depth automated analysis on individual haydroower assets, or generate a report for your entire portfolio including production, revenues, realized prices, inflows, total overperformance and more.

• Water Value for Production Planning‍
• When required to dispatch on short notice, the water value portfolio visualization ensures you pick the correct plant to dispatch quickly and correctly.
