Energy Asset Monitoring for Operation & Maintenance
Argand’s Asset Management solution for real-time operation & maintenance (O&M) is powered by our GridLENZ platform - our proprietary technology for the collection, storage and analysis of data for all of your sites, providing real-time data, PPA billing and active alerting to underperformance.
In addition to energy monitoring for renewables and energy storage we also provide building level monitoring to achieve both BREEAM ENA points accreditation and to also give building asset owners greater visibility of their electricity, gas & water consumption including electrical power quality data.
✺ Case Studies ✺
-
Argand Solutions - working with ESE Ltd - completed a high voltage G100 / G99 constraint management project with full micro-grid, wind, solar and battery storage integration; helping Keele to be placed as one of the top universities in the world for sustainability (UI Green Metric World Rankings, 2020).
-
GridGEM was chosen by Plymouth Marjon University and their key energy contractor, Mole Energy, to provide a G100 compliant solution to manage their export constraint at their site. The project was deemed to be complex due to the distances involved and the client’s HV connected site which required significant design engineering. The system manages 2 different installations to ensure that export remains within the DNO’s required limit.
-
GridGEM was chosen by Ethical Power to provide the G99 interface for active control plus the provision of a G99 fault and power quality recorder.
The system is one of only 2 that are approved in the UK market and will enable any type C or larger installation meet the existing DNO G99 requirements for real-time data recording.
-
GridGEM was chosen by Vensys wind turbines, based in Germany, to provide a G99 compliant Grid controller solution for its wind turbines installed in the UK.
Argand have just completed our 1st project with this new technology solution for a 3.5MW Vensys wind turbine owned by Clean Earth Energy, supplying power to a local manufacturing business in South Wales.
-
GridGEM was chosen by Black Dog Biogas to provide the solution to the complex set of problems associated with connecting their biogas electricity generating units to the Vestas wind turbine manufacturing site in the Isle of Wight in the UK.
The project had issues of parallel supply, active network management (ANM) & export limitation (G100 in the UK.)
-
GridGEM was chosen by Sungift Energy as their chosen solution to enable the connection of their 240 kWp solar PV system at BREAN Leisure Park. GridGEM was chosen because it made the complex connection problem simple to overcome.
