Opoura and Deutsche Windtechnik with an agreement to integrate more than 6,000 turbines from a wide range of manufacturers into their OneView® claVis Monitor energy management platform. The cloud-based software serves as Deutsche Windtechnik’s consolidated control room system and is already overseeing 6,100 onshore turbines, representing about 11 GW of wind capacity. With the addition of thousands of turbines, Deutsche Windtechnik takes advantage of Opoura’s centralized solution, which is designed to remotely monitor and troubleshoot a highly heterogeneous turbine portfolio in one single overview. The solution addresses a widespread challenge faced by independent service providers (ISPs), technical asset managers, and others overseeing large, mixed fleets of wind turbines. Especially Opoura’s ability to handle multi-tech complexity is highlighted by the customer:
“After years of close collaboration, we knew Opoura could deliver a software platform that meets the technical and operational scale of our fleet,” said Hauke Behrends, managing director at Deutsche Windtechnik GmbH & Co. KG. “As the leading multi-brand service provider, our key benefit of the OneView® claVis Monitor is that we can check various system technologies simultaneously in a single tool. This enables us to achieve significantly better response times for incoming faults.”
According to Lars Wollschlaeger, Opoura sales manager, the project also highlights the importance of data normalization that can create clarity in managing large fleets with diverse technologies:
“We are happy to continue our strong partnership with Deutsche Windtechnik,” he said. “Over the years, we have worked closely with control center operators and understand how important it is to have clear, filtered views that match different roles. I’m proud we can deliver exactly that. As their impressive wind portfolio keeps growing, so does the need for a scalable platform that is ready for the future.”
Thomas Bagger, CEO at Opoura, views the collaboration with an industry leader like Deutsche Windtechnik as a strong endorsement of the company’s expanded capabilities and direction.
“Our ambition is to support the biggest industry players with intelligent solutions and expertise — and in that way do our part in the energy transition,” he said. “This partnership is a clear example of that commitment. I’m honored that Deutsche Windtechnik continues to place their trust in us. Even with our new name and added teams of experts.”
