[Webinar] <\/strong>Weather data: a key element in assessing the actual performance of your solar farms<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>Meteorological data, particularly solar irradiance, is a key element in ensuring the profitability of a solar power farm, from the development phase through to the operational phase. These data are derived both from ground measurements, collected using in-situ equipment, and from assessments based on satellite images. In both cases, biased data can lead to over- or underestimation of a plant’s performance in the operational phase, and can even lead to disputes between plant owners and operators.
\nAccess to high-quality data is essential if higher value-added functions are to be carried out. In this webinar, we will look at software methods for improving data quality and see how they can be used to identify energy losses and detect problems in a power plant.<\/p>\n
Etienne Buessler<\/strong>, Customer Success Manager at Power Factors, will explain how power plant operators can achieve their financial and operational goals by leveraging quality data within analysis and reporting tools. Power Factors’ software platform is one of the most comprehensive and widely used solutions on the market, with nearly 200 GW of wind, solar, hydro and energy storage assets managed worldwide.
\n<\/span><\/p>\nTifenn Le Cocq<\/strong>, Instrumentation Engineer at Reuniwatt, will provide her expertise on the existing hardware solutions and the points to watch out for when maintaining them in optimal conditions. Marion Lafuma<\/strong>, Business Development Manager at Reuniwatt, will discuss Reuniwatt’s satellite-to-irradiance services, which offer both an alternative and a complementary solution to pyranometers. Both will outline the benefits of using reliable weather data on a daily basis.<\/p>\nThe webinar will be chaired by Nicolas Chouleur<\/strong>, Partner at Everoze. As an independent consultant, his role is to ensure the long-term viability of a project, and he has a thorough understanding of the elements needed to guarantee the profitability of a solar power plant. Weather data is one of the most crucial.<\/p>\n<\/div>After this webinar, you will have a better understanding of:<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>- <\/i><\/span>\n

Nicolas expertise encompasses product development and certification, project design and performance assessment, technical and commercial due diligence. In 2018, Nicolas led the development of Everoze activity in bifacial and floating PV. His experience includes a great variety of projects and technologies from roof-top system to large floating PV systems or hybrid PV + BESS installations. Prior to joining Everoze, Nicolas was a senior performance engineer at Sunpower.<\/p>\n\u00c9tienne Buessler<\/strong>, an energy and environment engineer, has 10 years of experience in the renewable energy sector. Working for Software-as-a-service providers, he has been helping multiple energy professionals to better manage their assets, by using quality data and software and embedding them in their workflows to drive performance improvements and cost savings. Etienne is currently a Manager of Customer Success at Power Factors and lives in Sweden.<\/p>\nTifenn Le Cocq<\/strong> has been Instrumentation Engineer at Reuniwatt since 2021 and works in the Toulouse office. The importance of the quality of the data measured is one of her priorities at Reuniwatt, where she ensures that the sky imagers and their metrics work properly, thanks to the setting up of a sky test bench in early 2022. Before joining the Reuniwatt team, Tifenn spent three years as an apprentice developing test benches for the electrical characterisation of solar cells at ONERA.<\/p>\nMarion Lafuma <\/strong>holds a BBA obtained at ESSEC Business School, followed by an MBA in Operational Management and Sustainable Performance. She joined Reuniwatt in 2011 when she launched the company\u2019s Mauritian subsidiary. She then joined the Parisian office in 2013 where she is in now in charge of the firm\u2019s business development. With a passion of sustainable and responsible energy, Marion has been responsible for expanding Reuniwatt\u2019s sales in renewable energy, defence & space and atmospheric sciences. Having an analytical approach and troubleshooting with integrity, she has been at the core of the company, accompanying it from a regional startup to international market leader.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>![](\"https:\/\/reuniwatt.com\/fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/NicolasChouleur_square_200px.jpg\" "\\"NicolasChouleur_square_200px\\"")
