In the lifecycle of AlsoEnergy Utility Solutions, the short game is the deployment period leading up to project commissioning and closeout. Although this period only represents a short part of the lifecycle, it includes some of the most critical tests for the SCADA system as clients rely on our technology for successful project commissioning and closeouts. Any failures in the SCADA system at the time of commissioning can lead to significant project delays and cost overruns, creating a big risk point for the project.
AlsoEnergy helps manage this risk with future-proof hardware systems and a large, experienced engineering team with expertise in all aspects of SCADA system deployment for solar PV.
Future-proof Hardware
At AlsoEnergy, our fully integrated hardware + software systems are built with open platform technology, using industry standard IEC 61131 programming to integrate seamlessly with the various EMS / SCADA / IT requirements associated with each project in your pipeline. And working with standard industry-leading components gives owners the confidence of knowing the core elements of the system can be independently supported and operated over the full project lifecycle.
