🎅Santa’s e-Sleigh Saved by Octave ! 🚀 How the Octave Load Balancer ensured Christmas wasn’t canceled. The Clean Tech Collective operates with a contractual grid offtake limit of 140 kVA. The challenge? Managing EV charging alongside other electricity consumers on-site. In the chart below, the red dotted line shows how much power remains for EV charging. ⚡️ Before 9:20 AM The Octave Load Balancer smoothly managed the load, allowing 4 EVs to charge at full power. The green line illustrates their total active power. 🛷 At 9:20 AM Santa arrives, needing an urgent DC charge for his sleigh! This sudden surge threatens to exceed the grid offtake limit—potentially causing disruptions. 🔧 9:20 AM to 9:55 AM The Octave Load Balancer dynamically adjusts the power of the AC chargers to prioritize the sleigh’s charging needs, ensuring the site stays within its grid limits. ⏱ By 9:55 AM With Santa’s sleigh ready to go, all PLUON AC chargers return to full power. No disruptions, no downtime—just efficient energy management. 🎄 Merry Christmas from the Octave Team!

Less is more. Why is it so important to steer your solar PV system? 🌞Most PV installations do not have green energy certificates 💸The days of high returns thanks to solar injection into the electricity grid are over 📈Many injection contracts have 100% exposure to spot prices, which often include negative price points ⚡Imbalance costs are now distributed between the energy supplier and their clients with a significant financial impact as a result If you don’t auto-consume more than 80% of the solar energy and don’t steer your PV system, your solar investment is at risk! Check-out the smart imbalance curtailment ✂️ of Octave & Yuso live at work! Together, we curtail your solar production during negative imbalance prices and increase your solar revenues. Talk to one of our experts and take action! #negativeelectricityprices #imbalancemarket #Europeelectricityprices #EnergyStorage #solarpower #solarEurope #BESS #powersupply #Electricalgrid #solarpowerprojects

🎉 We’re thrilled to welcome Melina Schlachter, Julien Lamandé, and Hamidreza Behi to the Octave crew! Triple the talent, triple the excitement! 🚀 Melina is our new full-stack dynamo. When she’s not busy crafting code from front to back, you’ll probably find her cycling her way through the city or crushing a spin class 🚴♀️. Julien is our new backend developer and an outdoor enthusiast 🧗♂️. When he's not working behind the scenes in our systems, he’s climbing mountains or sailing the seas. Julien is also volunteering with a food rescue organization to help fight food waste and support local communities. Hamidreza joins us as our Research Manager. Whether he's swimming, hiking, running, or camping ⛰️, Hamidreza thrives in the great outdoors—and he brings that same energy to leading our research projects. Welcome to the family, Melina, Julien, and Hamidreza! 🌟 #TripleThreat #WelcomeAboard #Octave

Last week, our clients experienced negative injection prices in periods of surplus energy production. While the sun was shining bright ☀, energy production was more than the grid could absorb—an opportunity and challenge many in the renewable space are familiar with ⚡ . This highlights the growing need for smarter energy management solutions to store and optimize renewable energy for maximum efficiency 💡 . One of our clients, Victor Pelkmans, talks about integrating our Solar Curtailment Service and how he is able to make the best of the surplus ⚙ . See his full testimonial here: https://lnkd.in/ensYDh8k Don’t miss out on the chance to enhance your solar energy system with Octave’s Solar Curtailment Service. Start saving today and enjoy the benefits of a more efficient, cost-effective solar solution. Contact us today to learn more and get started.

Belgium's energy market has arrived at a critical point with the resurgence of negative electricity prices, as covered extensively by several mainstream media such as De Tijd. 🌞⚡2024 is only halfway through, but the record for hours with negative prices set in 2023 has already been surpassed, signaling a significant oversupply of electricity during sunny hours. A sophisticated energy management system could help you navigate and control your solar installation with cost-cutting benefits. Check out yesterday’s action on the dashboard of one of our customers below. 📊 Octave's Solar Curtailment Service gives you the power to harness the sun: 🌞 Limiting the amount of excess power injected into the grid at negative prices that would otherwise cost you money. 💸 Projected savings are correlated to the maximum injected power at your site. 📈 The value of solar curtailment has increased exponentially over the past 3 years and is currently estimated at €12 per kW injection peak/year. Talk to one of our experts to see how much value our Solar Curtailment Service could bring you in terms of power management and solar curtailment. The service is also available for sites without a battery. 🔋 #negativeelectricityprices #Europeelectricityprices #EnergyStorage #solarpower #solarEurope #BESS #powersupply #Electricalgrid #solarpowerprojects
