Cyviz AS - The world’s largest renewable energy company finds a globally scalable solution with Cyviz

9.2.2022 15:08:08 CET | Cyviz | Non-regulatory press releases

Improving productivity, reducing downtime, and delivering a unified operator experience is crucial to the world’s largest renewable energy company RES. Serving multiple energy providers they need to ensure that their global energy assets are always running. Any unexpected downtime would negatively impact energy yields and profitability — for RES and their clients. The Cyviz control room solution including remote support and management capabilities ensures the stable operation they need.

To reflect their global portfolio, they need an easy way to understand what is happening on the ground, 24/7, 365 days a year — and to keep their customers updated with how their energy assets are performing. The solution needs to be scalable and consistent, so their teams have the same information and control room experience, whether they are in Glasgow or in Sydney.

Multiple data streams

To improve team efficiency and avoid information overload, the senior control room team wanted to rationalize the number of data streams being used. They looked to Cyviz for an easy-to-use platform that could consolidate all the information needed and one that could provide a consistent and collaborative user experience worldwide.

The RES control room uses many different sources to understand what’s occurring across its solar, wind, and offshore energy assets. Multiple data streams need to be monitored at the same time, so the control room team needed a solution that would act as ‘a single source of truth’.

Future plans

The Cyviz control room solution, incorporating Cyviz Easy Software Platform, video walls and controller as well as remote support and management capabilities, became the center of an entire re-fit of the existing main control room in Glasgow with a secondary location setup in Sydney. This included shifting the room from a traditional theatre-style setup to an ‘in the round’ layout that better facilitates information sharing and collaboration between the team. 

With the Glasgow and Sydney control rooms re-fitted and working seamlessly with Cyviz systems, RES has a reliable and intuitive way to track their asset performance and maintenance needs. As they continue to scale globally, the Cyviz system will adapt with them, either adding additional functionality and new workflows to the existing control rooms or supporting new regional control rooms.

“This is something that was key when choosing Cyviz. If we expand to other sites, we want them to be an extension of our existing control rooms. We don’t want to begin from the ground up, and with Cyviz the infrastructure is already there to get running quickly”, says Charles McLuckie, Control Center Manager at RES.
