raicoon AOC performs the whole process of operations: from data aggregation to fault detection and diagnostics, to deciding when intervention is necessary. And when intervention is necessary, the system automatically creates a ticket and forwards it to the correct person. All without human interaction.
A monitoring system is a tool for operations center engineers. It helps them to visualize system data so they can analyze it, find faults, and decide on actions. The AOC does not merely present data for engineers to base decisions off of – it actually makes those decisions for them. It completely does away with the need for someone to monitor and confirm the data. Instead of thinking of raicoon as a replacement for your monitoring tool, think of it as a replacement for the entirety of today’s legacy operations centers.
raicoon AOC uses AI and machine learning algorithms in combination with automatic irradiation sensor calibration, a module temperature model finder, and automatic shadow detection to detect even the slightest of anomalies based on a high-precision digital twin.
You could try sending them to raicoon.com so they can see all the benefits for themselves. ;)
Our best advice here is to say: tell your service providers what they need to do in order to continue being your service partner. If they already use their own ticket system, we can likely integrate it via API. But do keep in mind – it’s important to the health of the system that the ticket system gets used, because the AOC learns with every new ticket created.
The average solar plant will increase their energy yield by 6%+ per year using autonomous operations. On the solutions page you’ll find a simple fixed tariff calculator where you can calculate your approximate benefit.
raicoon AOC makes the operations portion of operations and maintenance autonomous. This means you no longer need human engineers sitting in an office with pcs and monitors, heat, etc. With the AOC you can split the cost of operations (which is roughly half of operations and maintenance) in half. You’ll receive better service quality, and an O&M contract that’s reduced by approximately 25%.
A computer can process and analyze data much faster than any human can. Time is saved by recognizing faults faster, and by reducing intervention time. If a technician is able to make a repair two hours quicker, that’s two hours of valuable energy rescued. The AOC also detects minor anomalies that traditional operations centers would either not recognize, or not have the resources to attend to. In short: the AOC detects more faults, faster. Which results in a lot of energy saved.
The AOC is priced based on the size of your systems, so you can have as many users as you like. In fact, you can even create users for your service partners.
Your data belongs to you, and you only. Only with your permission will we receive a copy of your data to store and use to further analyze, learn from, and improve the AOC. You can end your permission at any time, and on request we will delete your data according to the EU general data protection regulation (GDPR).
The fault detection engine uses multiple fault detection algorithms: from simple component failure detection to comparing actual values with the digital twin. Should a fault arise, each algorithm should detect the same impact. The system also learns from all historical data of the system and uses machine learning to predict future behavior, so the AOC knows precisely when to wait and when to react.
raicoon AOC is a 100% cloud-based platform – no hardware required. You can access the system at any time, from any device.
Oh, that’s Rick.
