In today's increasingly digital world, the ability to manage real-time data has become a cornerstone of operational efficiency and growth, especially in industries aiming to make a significant impact on climate goals. One such pioneer in the energy sector is Sunrock, a leading European solar rooftop developer and provider of clean energy solutions.
Sunrock is known for offering energy strategies and solutions to companies, especially large logistics real estate firms, aiming to contribute meaningfully to the Paris climate goals. However, managing many large-scale PV solar rooftop installations simultaneously necessitates the handling of an enormous amount of real-time data. Every asset and every exchange of energy between larger grids and local microgrids must be tracked and predicted. This introduces the challenge of a broad spread of sensors or edge devices, and finding qualified technical staff to gather, protect, and analyze this edge data to unleash its full potential.
Sunrock required a solution for facilitating an arbitrage system between the grid, energy storage, and local consumption, complemented by detailed asset monitoring.
To ensure efficient operation and avoid energy loss, Sunrock required a solution for facilitating an arbitrage system between the grid, energy storage, and local consumption, complemented by detailed asset monitoring. Additionally, they needed secure, high-frequency data from all their sensors – spread across over 1 million square meters of solar roofs – and control over inverters and batteries. With this comprehensive solution, they can realize their ambitious climate objectives.
With the Helin Platform, we enable Sunrock to unify their data sources, collect essential data from their assets, establish an app center (complete with a curtailment application), and encrypt the data and app for security.
Helin's platform provided this solution. The platform was designed to manage edge devices on industrial assets, for example, solar assets, enhancing efficiency, safety, and sustainability, while unlocking the full potential of industrial assets. With our platform, Sunrock could unify their data sources, collect essential data from their assets, establish an app center (complete with a curtailment application), and encrypt the data and app for security. Moreover, this could be accomplished at high speed, without increasing the burden on internal staff.
The Helin Platform is proof that data can be leveraged to bring innovation forward in an effective way. It can be a catalyst, driving organizations towards achieving their objectives faster and more efficiently.

Due to the widespread adoption of renewable energy, the Netherlands has encountered significant limitations with its national power grid, making it the first European country to face such hurdles.
In today's interconnected industrial world, the choice of the right protocol isn't just important—it's essential. Protocols are the frameworks that determine how operational data is stored, transferred, and protected. With a myriad of options available, how can one confidently navigate this intricate domain?
In today's rapidly digitizing industrial landscape, the pressure to collect, analyze, and act on data is ever-mounting. But with limited human resources, how do industries keep pace without overtaxing their staff? Dive deep into how outsourcing your data collection can revolutionize operations and bring peace of mind to your people.
