Climate change is having a significant impact on the availability and efficiency of energy sources. Diversification of energy supply is therefore becoming increasingly important. In this context, power generation from small hydropower plants is both economically and environmentally attractive. However, in order to exploit their potential as efficiently as possible, it is important to keep an eye on the operating figures. An intelligent data platform helps in the decision-making process.

Key performance indicators such as efficiency, technical availability or plant productivity can be important parameters for operators to optimize the performance of their power plants. This allows informed decisions to be made and plant efficiency to be increased simply by reducing unplanned downtime. A well-planned maintenance strategy also enables cost-effective maintenance and repair, minimizing downtime and extending the life of the plant.

An extensive database provides the basis for meaningful reports and analyses. The economic success of all electrical production systems can be tracked precisely. Reliable data also helps to monitor the performance limits, identify trends, and measure the effectiveness of the entire plant fleet.

Seamless performance monitoring is crucial for cost-optimized operation of power plants. The RITUNE^® Power application, based on Rittmeyer's RITUNE^® data platform, makes it easy for operators to visualize and analyze large amounts of data with flexible dashboards. At the same time, the collected data can be used to generate reports. Comparison with historical data also makes it easier to identify trends.

The RITUNE^® data platform is the all-in-one solution with the potential for individual expansion - far beyond the small hydropower sector. It eliminates the need for expensive on-site infrastructure, centrally consolidates any data sources, and creates the basis for effective decision-making. This saves time and money.
