Intelligent software for our energy future.
Software & Algorithms for Energy Systems
Analyze
We analyze energy data to gain a thorough understanding of your energy consumption and CO₂ emissions. Our software uses sensor data from you or our partners, as well as data from external sources such as weather information. Our data management tools allow us to collect, store and analyze this information. Which consumers and sources exist in the system? How do they interact? When, where and to what extent do energy flows occur? How are energy storage systems integrated into the system? Our experts develop mathematical models to understand complex systems and identify areas for optimization.
Predict
We create a model, also known as a digital twin, based on thorough analysis that maps your entire energy system. This mathematically formulated model depicts all energy flows, relationships, sources and consumption, opening up all possibilities for subsequent control. Using our digital twin, we can accurately predict the impact of energy efficiency measures and CO₂ reduction strategies. Our models help companies to make the best possible decisions regarding their energy applications and reduce their costs.
Optimize
Our optimization algorithms help companies to maximize energy efficiency and minimize CO₂ emissions. As experts in non-linear optimization techniques, we find the best solutions for complex energy applications. Our model provides suggestions to optimize your systems – you remain in full control of the decisions. Based on our mathematical algorithms, you can learn more about unexpected control options for your energy system. Standby and operating times can therefore be intelligently adapted to the available energy potential. Optimized storage operation is also possible. A self-regulating system maximizes your savings potential and offers corresponding economic advantages.
Examples of use
Energy Management on Farms
TOPAS has demonstrated the efficiency gains possible in agriculture by working with numerous agricultural businesses in the Bremen area and the Allgäu region. Optimizing the control of storage facilities and shiftable consumers aligns production with individual consumption, offering significant savings potential. This is demonstrated every day at our two research farms in Achim and Osterholz.
Optimized Design of Energy Generators and Storage Systems
We design PV systems, battery storage and other components that are optimized for your company's unique energy consumption requirements. By integrating sensor data and information from external sources, such as solar radiation levels, we can accurately map energy flows and relationships within the system. This enables us to make the best possible decisions for your specific application.
