Start and Stop Opinum Helps Promoting Renewable Energy With Solvay Energy Services

Solvay Energy Services, the French energy subsidiary of the Solvay group, needed an effective way to manage its renewable energy aggregation services. The challenge was to remotely monitor production sites and control equipment shutdowns during periods of negative energy prices to protect producer profitability. To address this, the company turned to Opinum and its Data Hub platform.

The solution implemented by Opinum provided real-time data collection and remote control capabilities, allowing Solvay to issue shutdown and restart commands to production facilities almost instantly. This enabled them to react swiftly to market price fluctuations, maximizing gains for their producer customers. Opinum’s platform was noted for its flexibility, security, and the vendor's responsive support, which allowed Solvay to present a single, unified point of contact to its own clients.
