Our mission is to build Enterprise SaaS tools for Power Utilities to help them keep pace with the Energy Transition. Our software connects digital twins across buildings, energy and transport to model and forecast energy demand across both short and long term time horizons. The platform future-proofs power grid investment decisions by removing the uncertainty of evolving customer demand in the face of mass electrification of transport and heating. 

Current approaches to planning the energy transition rely on human-resource intensive consultancy models. This costs too much and goes too slowly. There is an urgent need for digital solutions which the team’s energy, data science and coding skills are well placed to solve. Power Utilities are underserved by spatial analytics solutions.

The team has worked for Power Utilities and knows the problem-set. The team has developed a high degree of product and technical expertise since founding the company two years ago. We have also developed expertise in building datasets using multi-industry datasets (prop-tech, fin-tech etc) to produce end-to-end coverage for energy transition energy planning workflows.

Ogre Artificial Intelligence

Nectaware's mission is to develop ad-hoc artificial intelligence solutions dedicated to forecasting electricity PV generation and demand that are easily accessible and compatible with other platforms. Nectaware has also created a unique AI-image recognition solution of satellite images capable of mapping every PV plant, producing accurate generation monitoring and forecast, and providing all the energy transition stakeholders with accurate figures and information not otherwise available.
 
At Nectaware, our vision is rooted in the belief that the energy transition presents unprecedented challenges in the energy sector. We see it as an opportunity for a profound paradigm shift involving various stakeholders with varying concerns, including regulatory, economic, societal, and environmental factors. At the heart of this transition lies the adoption of integrated multi-energy systems (MES) within urban environments. These MES solutions aim to efficiently generate, distribute, store, and convert energy across various stakeholders. They enable the harnessing of renewable energy resources and the development of intelligent energy infrastructures. Our vision is twofold: to optimize the resulting integrated energy system globally and to enhance every individual process within it.
