QOS Energy announced that Neoen, a renewable project developer and owner, has chosen QOS Energy’s O&M management platform to monitor the performance of the 315 MW Hornsdale wind project.
Neoen has deployed Qantum, the IEC compliant energy management SaaS powered by QOS Energy, to monitor the two first stages of the project.
The project, claimed to be h will be amongst the largest wind farms operating in Australia once fully commissioned, consisting of 96 Siemens 3.2MW wind turbines. It is being built in three stages; two of which have been completed.
With Qantum, no additional hardware or system installation is required onsite to run the software, which allows for a swift and cost effective set-up of data acquisition processes.
The platform gathers and analyses data generated by each turbine for all measured values using a secure VPN connection. Qantum is compatible with every kind of wind turbine, communication standard or database connection protocol.
“Our day-to-day challenge is to deliver best-in-class O&M analytics services for some of the largest renewable projects in the world. Project after project, Qantum continues to showcase its powerful analytic and O&M performance capabilities,” said Fabrice Wacogne, chief customer success officer at QOS Energy.
“We can monitor the wind farm’s operational and financial performance as soon as each turbine is installed onsite,” concluded Laurent Francisci, Operations director Australia at Neoen.
