SCADA International, a provider of smart renewable energy solutions and digital services, is bringing its acquired companies together under a new name and identity: Opoura. This rebranding reflects the company’s broadened role in the energy sector.
The transition follows a year of record growth, including four acquisitions, bringing in a list of new capabilities, colleagues, and know-how, expanding the group’s offerings to the energy industry.
The progress the company has experienced in recent years has made it clear that the SCADA name, tied to the term Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, no longer fully captures the full scope of what the company delivers. “When we founded SCADA International in 2006, our ambition was to tackle renewable challenges related to SCADA by offering specialized expertise in both hardware and consultancy,” said SCADA CEO Thomas Bagger. “So, a name like SCADA International seemed fitting.
As the industry changed and customers took greater control of their operations and data, we also evolved by delivering independent monitoring and control software. In that way, our journey has always been shaped by advancing alongside our customers’ needs and evolving market conditions.
Through this journey – and with the new companies joining us this year – we’ve grown into something much bigger than when we first started. It feels only right that our name reflects this development.
That’s why I’m excited and proud to introduce Opoura – a name that reflects how far we have come and the wide range of solutions and services we now offer.” The new Opoura brand is rooted in the company’s Nordic renewable heritage. Opoura is a contraction of “Optimize Performance of Your Assets.” The rebranding process entails that the four former group companies – Sweet Geeks, Next Consult, Quantec Systems GmbH, and SCADA International – will unite as one brand. NovoGrid will continue for now as part of Opoura.
Headquartered in Denmark and with a presence in North America and Europe, the company enables customers to connect, control, and commercialize assets in the energy landscape.
“We are still the same dedicated team – just a much larger one with a broader range of expertise,” Bagger said. “At Opoura, we want to ignite the energy transition and are committed to doing so in a smart, innovative way. I’m excited to see how this vision will come to life.”
