The Norwegian company Enernite Was awarded the Solar Start-Up Award 2023 for their next generation online geospatial platform at the SolarPower Summit 2023 hosted by SolarPower Europe in Brussels last week.
Although equipment performance is undoubtedly the key factor in the success of a solar power plant, the land on which the project is built can have a major impact on how the equipment performs and how well the project performs, which is often underappreciated.
“The solar industry has a tradition of talented innovators advancing the technology in creative and inventive ways. This year’s Solar Start-Up Award winner is no different, as Enernite’s online tools are transforming the way developers design solar farms,” commented Walburga Hemetsberger, CEO of SolarPower Europe.
The cloud-based platform leverages Enernite’s extensive catalog of data to help project developers identify potential roadblocks that may hamper a project’s success and the potential risks involved. With high-quality location data, easy to use spatial analysis toolsReal-time collaboration and advanced reporting and documentation generation capabilities enable developers and stakeholders to make more informed decisions, find the best land, and plan the best design for their projects.
At the Summit, Fredrik Moger, CEO and co-founder of Enernite, outlined how the platform was developed to manage the risks of developing projects, including environmental analysis, site suitability assessment and comparison of qualified projects using map data, on site. Ground reports and pictures.
“We are honored to receive the Solar Start-Up Award at this year’s SolarPower Summit. We are inspired by the competition with the best European start-ups and discussions with policy makers and industry leaders. We are motivated to continue building a company that is changing the energy industry,” said Moger.
“Unlike talented competition, we are pleased to recognize Enernite’s contribution to advancing the sector and showcasing the endless potential of solar energy,” added Hemetsberger.
