Customized Solutions

Does your energy planning study or tool does not exist yet or can't be reproduced? We deliver customized reports and models that empower our clients to be independent by being reproducible, enabling them to continue using and improving the tools after the project.

Software Development and Maintenance

We develop and maintain open source software for energy system modelling. We are specialized in Python, data viz-craft, machine learning and optimization in the energy domain. If any data or tool requirements are not yet fulfilled we are happy to close the gaps.

Support

Open source software is free to use, but not free to maintain. We offer support contracts to ensure that the tools are maintained and improved. This way, we can ensure that the tools are always up to date and that our clients can focus on their work.

Training

As an open source project stands not only on the shoulders of giants, but also on the shoulders of the community. To continue building up a strong user, developer and maintainer network is essential for us. We offer training to help our clients to become independent and part of the community.
