VALHALLA, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Newyork—Utopus
Insights, a leading energy analytics software company, announces the
release of five powerful software tools that provide unprecedented
insights and set a new bar in data science energy applications for the
industry. These products enable renewable generation producers,
operators, OEMs, T&D utilities, ISOs/RTOs and other energy companies to
solve their toughest analytics challenges with accurate, timely
information at a lower cost.

“These tools culminate several years of collaborative work and
investment with leading energy companies from around the world who
helped us achieve the research breakthroughs we’re now making available
as products,” said Chandu Visweswariah, President and CEO of Utopus
Insights. “They feature the most advanced data analytics techniques
available specialized for energy applications.”

The Utopus Insights product families are modular, integrated and offered
as a hybrid on-premises/SaaS IoT solution. They include:

MaestrOS platform—A one-stop, data-curation and integrated app
powerhouse.

Perhaps the most advanced energy analytics platform on the planet,
MaestrOS provides out-of-the-box integration with siloed, distributed
and real-time data into a curated data model. It links unmatched data
curation capabilities with a CIM-compliant common data model, integrates
Utopus Insights’ hyper-local weather forecasting service and supports
the company’s product families. It includes state-of-the-art
authentication and data security, and features published, public and
secured APIs and intuitive visualization to work in harmony with a
customer’s existing enterprise systems and to leverage their team’s
expertise. No other platform has its combined breadth, accuracy,
scalability or flexibility.

Xplore for Wind/Solar—See how all assets are performing in
real-time on a single dashboard.

Xplore is an industry-changing family of applications that delivers
precise situational awareness by providing historical and real-time
insights into solar and wind asset performance across an entire asset
fleet – no matter the location, size or OEM of the assets. It provides
intuitive visualizations that you can configure to suit operational
performance metrics with personalized, instant alerts through a
patented, innovative performance-modeling capability. Xplore seamlessly
scales up to an entire fleet, drills down to a single asset or reviews
at any operational level in-between to assess operational performance.
At whatever scale of spatio-temporal data demand, Xplore can ingest,
clean, organize and structure customer data in a format that reveals new
operational insights that reduce costs and improve performance.

Pulse for Wind/Solar—Determine what's going to break or fail
before it breaks or fails.

Pulse is the industry’s first and most advanced one-stop predictive
maintenance application suite that enables you to identify, prioritize
and preempt critical wind/solar component failure across a customer’s
entire enterprise. Pulse goes beyond time- or condition-based
maintenance analytics and uses patented, industry-leading artificial
intelligence algorithms to deliver risk-based insights into remaining
component life for over 20 asset classes including inverters,
transformers, generators, bearings and other mechanical/electrical
equipment. It helps improve asset performance, system reliability and
target capital investment to provide the greatest value.

HyperCast for Wind/Solar—Reliable renewable energy delivery in an
unreliable climate.

HyperCast is the industry-leading solar and wind forecasting tool family
that uses unsupervised, advanced machine learning on real-time wind and
solar farm measurement data. It delivers a 72-hour advance forecast,
updated every 10 minutes, for both available and active power generation
with best-in-class MAE (Mean Absolute Error) results. HyperCast enables
power quality improvement, congestion reduction and reduced downtime by
syncing maintenance work to low-production days with up to a 14-day lead
time. HyperCast enables customers to leverage market imbalances, sharpen
day-ahead and intra-day bid strategies, and quickly identify and resolve
asset production anomalies. These results are driven by best-in-class
analytics coupled with our proprietary, hyper-local and energy-specific
weather service (Nostradamus), that delivers 10-minute interval weather
predictions up to 96 hours in advance at each solar farm location and
each wind turbine location and hub height.

Nostradamus—Get a precise weather-wise peek into the future.

This is the most advanced, energy-specialized, hyper-local weather
forecasting service available. Nostradamus forecasts enable more
informed decisions on where to preposition response assets, more
accurate information to be shared with customers, communities and other
key stakeholders, and ultimately reduce service restoration time. It
runs a physics-based dynamic model on an HPCC (High-Performance
Computing Cluster) to generate forecasts up to 96 hours in advance, at a
10-minute temporal resolution with an industry-leading level of
precision down to 1 km². The tool can be quickly linked to a customer’s
GIS-mapped assets, and can be made available as a SaaS within five
business days.
