Distributed Energy Resources PV AI Forecasting
Intraday and DA battery storage, PV, EV behind the meter AI forecasts.
DER injection aggregation by segmentation & geolocation and reverse transformations to generate forecasts at individual home meter levels.
QR Energy Datahub
- Ready-to-use energy data hub built on advanced data architecture, big data storage, flexible data modeling, API technologies, and intuitive web-based management tools.
- Designed to meet the data challenges of energy retail providers operating across multiple utility distributions, the platform offers a robust, centralized web data hub to ingest, cleanse, store, and manage data at resolutions ranging from 5-minute intervals to monthly aggregates. Any data is supported, e.g., consumer meter, DER, weather data, prices, trades, billing.
- The platform seamlessly integrates with third-party data feeds, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) billing systems, legacy utility platforms, and metering services, accommodating diverse data formats and communication protocols.
QR Trading Portfolio Optimizer
- Retail providers source energy through a portfolio of callable financial and physical bilateral contracts and a spot market.
- This solution minimizes energy sourcing cost by dynamically adjusting for every 5–60 minute trading period, the scheduling or nomination quantity of callable and bilateral sourcing contracts and buy-sell imbalance in the spot market, subject to demand, contractual & regulatory constraints.
- Intraday and DA trading as well as long-term planning.
QR Retail Energy Back Office
- Comprehensive wholesale and retail power and gas transaction settlement, rate calculation, and billing.
- Configurable back-office workflow and lifecycle management.
- Seamless API connectivity with EDI, meters, prices, exchanges, and ISOs. Data validator (meter and price data management, validation, uploading).
A next-generation AI energy trading ecosystem with a modular architecture enables effective planning and optimization of retail energy portfolios, supported by advanced AI load and DER forecasting and cloud-based data hub management.
Overcoming Complex Challenges in Retail Energy Trading
- Specifically designed solution to address the unique challenges faced by energy retail providers as they navigate the growing shift to renewable DER (Distributed Energy Resource), PV, EV, battery storage, and demand response programs.
- Seamless integration of big consumer data from diverse utility and third-party sources. Advanced AI forecasting and trading algorithms to optimize energy sourcing and mitigate risk.
Advanced AI & Optimization Algorithms
