In a world where sustainability and cost efficiency are increasingly important, digitalisation plays a crucial role in energy management. At Odot, we understand the need for advanced digital tools to help companies optimise their energy consumption. Our web application, my.Odot, provides a comprehensive solution for effective energy management. In this blog, we discuss how my.Odot can support companies in achieving maximum efficiency and sustainability.

1. Sustainable and cost-effective energy management.

Digitisation offers numerous benefits for companies looking to optimise their energy management. From solar and energy shares to charging stations and batteries, digital tools such as my.Odot enable accurate measurements and in-depth data analysis. This results in increased efficiency and better control over energy consumption and production.

2. Accurate estimation of solar efficiency.

A crucial aspect of solar energy management is accurately estimating production and consumption. The number of solar panels and their orientation play a major role, but it is also essential to precisely calculate local consumption. my.Odot offers detailed insight into consumption and production profiles, allowing an objective understanding of the efficiency of your solar panels. Thanks to our advanced simulation tools, we can make highly accurate simulations of your potential auto-consumption in advance. As Jan Luyckx, Energy Analyst at Odot, explains, "An accurate autoconsumption estimate is essential for maximising solar efficiency."

3. Maximum value from solar surplus.

With own consumption at, say, 80%, there are several options to maximise returns from the remaining 20%, such as energy shares or an injection contract. Chris Elbers, CEO of Odot, stresses the importance of matching profiles with the right tools to determine exactly how much volume can be redistributed via energy shares. Odot can accurately match these profiles, allowing companies to make informed decisions about redistributing their energy surpluses.

4. Optimisation of charging stations.

With the right tools and expertise, charging stations can be transformed into profitable models. my.Odot helps companies identify the exact cost and revenue of each kWh. This enables companies to effectively manage the power made available to charging stations, which has a positive impact on grid costs. my.Odot provides the basic insights needed to determine correct pricing at public charging stations, contributing to cost-efficient and profitable charging station management.

5. The power of digitisation in energy management.

Manually managing complex hardware and associated data has become almost impossible. Digitisation offers a solution by automating measurements, integrating data and generating new insights. With my.Odot, companies can develop strategies to reduce costs and improve efficiency. "At Odot, we have long invested in combining the right data streams into easy-to-use software and deep integration of AI to make advanced analytics accessible to companies," says Anya Kussé, Director of Operations & IT at Odot. Thanks to our digital tools, companies can manage the complexity of their energy management and develop an optimal energy strategy.

One of our success stories: Significant cost savings with my.Odot.

An example of the impact of my.Odot can be seen with one of our customers. This customer had originally been proposed a power of 800 kW by the grid operator for their high-voltage cabin. Through our detailed analysis and action, we discovered that this customer's peaks were up to 90 kW. We reduced the proposed power to 100 kW, which resulted in significant cost savings. Thanks to our approach, this customer saved as much as €21,168 over a 12-month period.

⚡ Total savings: 21,168 euros (year 2024)

Conclusion.

Digitalisation plays a crucial role in modern energy management. My.Odot provides companies with the tools they need to optimise their energy consumption and operate more sustainably and cost-efficiently. Through accurate measurements, data analysis and advanced simulations, my.Odot makes it possible to maximise the efficiency of solar power, charging stations and energy surplus. At Odot, we remain committed to delivering innovative solutions that help companies stay future-proof in a rapidly changing energy market.
