V-Plant Manager
V-Plant Manager provides a centralized digital platform for power plant management, covering areas such as maintenance scheduling, outage planning, and operational optimization.
V-Plant Manager
is an intelligent platform designed for your energy production and consumption facilities, bringing all planning processes under one roof. Whether you’re creating short-term hourly schedules or planning annual strategic roadmaps, the software handles complex calculations for you, responding to your needs with flexible timeframes. This allows you to instantly adapt to rapidly changing market conditions and operational constraints, making the best decisions with confidence.
The optimization engine at the heart of the platform evaluates cost conditions to increase efficiency. Comparisons across different scenarios reveal which production profiles are financially more advantageous. Instead of wasting time on trial and error, you can now move forward with clear results based on the optimization model.
Automatic Planning
V-Plant Manager's scenario-based long-term planning infrastructure shapes your long-term strategies. When participating in the market, V-Plant Manager's stepped bidding feature comes into play. It creates separate price-volume curves for each level of your production capacity and automatically compiles the most profitable bidding structure step by step in day-ahead and intraday sessions. The power of this method allows you to maximize capacity during high price periods and minimize risks during low prices. Finally, the optimization engine combines all this data and dynamically updates your plans based on real-time conditions, technical constraints, and cost parameters.
ETS & TSO Integration
V-Plant Manager manages your Available Capacity, Definitive Daily Production Program, Minimum Steady Production Level, Load Take-Up Instruction, Load Shedding Instruction, Primary Frequency Control, Secondary Frequency Control and Fault Operations in a fully automatic, fast and secure way with the Electricity Transmission System (ETS) and TSO integrations.
Portfolio Management
Its structure, broken down into sub-categories like power plants, factories, units, and meters, allows you to manage your asset definitions and planning in detail. Define your plans for each asset in your portfolio, monitor their progress, and have the system take action on your behalf.
V-Plant Manager offers a comprehensive solution that allows you to monitor and manage all your energy assets, from power plants to factories, on a single platform. It hierarchically defines your facility’s generator sets, transformer substations, and production lines, along with auxiliary equipment. The operating status, capacity, and performance data for each asset are monitored in real time.
Your maintenance and repair processes are planned and documented from start to finish with V-Plant Manager’s workflow module. You can define automatic warning thresholds for critical equipment and associate maintenance periods with operating hours or production cycles to minimize the risk of field disruptions.
Thanks to the direct integration capability with and the relevant transmission system operators (TSO) in Europe, you can execute your market transactions as well as frequency control and load instructions in a single interface.
