Providing the intell igence to make

informed decisions.

We’ve been at the forefront of utility

analytics, and the African leaders in

forecasting electricity demand, since

the late 1990s.

Our specialist team comprises highly experienced and

qualified statisticians, IT professionals, engineers and

mathematicians who are passionate about scientific,

statistical and technological advancements to support

customer decision-making.

We manage extremely large data sets using state-of-the-

art agile concepts, with an iterative delivery process.

Applying these techniques minimises the traditional gaps

between modeller, client and end-user, to simplify

problems and solve operational challenges in the utility,

energy regulator, telecommunication and retail

environments.

Our utility analytics services include losses analytics

and revenue analytics, tariff impact modelling and

analytics, load forecasting, primary energy, network

planning, pricing, engineering, demand side management,

market intelligence, asset management, customer

services, visual analytics, multivariate statistics, time

series analysis, machine learning, correspondence

analysis, business intelligence, renewable energy

forecasting, and energy modelling.

Utility Analytics

Developing and implementing bilateral

contract and energy trading systems

tailored to utility/country requirements.

We’ve developed and implemented, and

currently support the trading systems of

a number of Southern African utilities.

l We implemented the first Short Term Energy Market

system for the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) in

the early 2000s. In 2006, in partnership with NordPool,

we implemented the Day-ahead Market for SAPP, and

have supported and upgraded the trading platform

since then.

l We implemented Energy Trading Systems for Eskom,

NamPower and the Botswana Power Corporation.

l We developed a new Market Trading Platform for SAPP

in 2014, in partnership with NordPool, which included a

Day-ahead Market, and a Physical Forward Contract

and Intra-day Market for short-term trade.

l We supported the Gulf Region’s (GCCIA) market

development act iv i t ies through training and

implementation of a proof-of-concept trading solution

(Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait).

We’re the only company in Africa with an operational

energy trading solution in place, with international

energy trade volume of > 1 220 GWH/month.

Measurement and Evaluation Centre (NMEC) Energy

Efficiency Measurement and Verification (M&V)

system, used to administer the nationwide DSM

initiative.

head-end system supports all smart meter types and

integrates into utility billing systems, e.g. Itron and

Oracle.

Energy Data Solutions Demand Response

Helping utilities manage peak demand,

and demand/supply volatility.

We’re at the forefront of demand response development

in Africa. Our flagship DRPro platform helps utilities

manage their demand response portfolios.

We’re specialists in quickly getting load

off the network when needed, with a

proven track record of success!

l Our DRPro Demand Response Management platform

makes coordinating utilities’ demand response

initiatives easy and quick to implement and manage.

l We provide demand response turnkey services,

including consulting, software, integration, site

communications, site equipment and a day-to-day

24/7/365 operational service.

l Over the past 11 years we’ve developed and operated

the Virtual Power Station, used daily by the South

African system operator and Eskom, largest African

utility, to manage network frequency, and balance

supply and demand.

l Over the past 11 years our Demand Response

Operations Desk has managed over 1 500 MWs of

dispatchable demand response load and more than

15 000 demand response customer dispatches.

l We’ve dispatched over 150 000 MWs of instantaneous

demand response, and more than 1 300 000 MWhs of

curtailment demand response.
