Centralizing IT processes and data sources in renewable energy
Overview
Accelerating insights for renewable energy
When it came to the management of energy projects, our renewable energy client experienced a significant gap in analytics. Their legacy system didn’t provide data on asset utilization until weeks later, hindering their ability to make data-driven decisions in real time.
To speed up the time to insights, OneSix recommended a centralized data repository where asset management information can exist in one place for exploratory and standardized analysis.
Our Solution
Technology modernization and change management
As a trusted partner, OneSix built a deep understanding of the business, its unique challenges, and opportunities. With a focus on data centralization, the engagement has been a healthy combination of technology implementation and change management.
As part of a Dedicated Data Team (DDT), OneSix implemented a streamlined process to transform data from raw to business-level tables across internal and external sources. The outcome was a holistic view of project asset utilization. The OneSix DDT also supported and built out new integrations, reporting capabilities, and apps. This included building enterprise dashboards, public datasets, and data catalogs.
Technologies Implemented
- Azure Data Factory was used for data integration.
- Azure Synapse Analytics was used to accelerate time to insight.
- Power BI provided reports for actionable insights and trends.
Results
Near real-time project and asset monitoring
By harnessing near real-time actionable insights at both the project and asset level, significant strides were made in reducing response times to unexpected changes.
Additionally, our recommended approach to centralizing data movement and maintenance has been instrumental in enhancing operational efficiency. Streamlining data management into a centralized system has facilitated smoother access, analysis, and upkeep, thereby optimizing workflows and resource allocation across the board.
