// 01 — overview

Wasted renewable energy,
put to work.

We provide distributed load following solutions, to reduce dissipation of your investments in renewable energy.

PV output vs. grid export limit, one day A solar output curve rises through the day and is clipped flat by the grid's export limit at midday; the gap between potential and exported output is the curtailed, wasted energy. PV OUTPUT — 24H TRACE GRID EXPORT LIMIT CURTAILED 00:00 12:00 24:00

// 02 — problem

PV curtailment, the intentional restriction of solar energy production, wastes clean free electricity, damages project economics, and discourages investment.
It serves as a bottleneck in the energy transition, forcing owners to lose revenue while reducing the overall efficiency of renewable energy adoption.

>It's not curtailment, it's waste.
P.01Financial Loss

Curtailment directly limits the amount of electricity that can be sold, reducing revenue streams and return on investment (ROI) for solar projects.

P.02Waste of Clean Energy

It causes free, clean, and sustainable electricity to go unused, which is counterproductive to sustainability goals.

P.03Discourages Optimisation

Frequent curtailment disincentivises improvements like solar panel cleaning or upgrading to more efficient equipment, as the additional energy generated is simply wasted.

P.04Economic Inequity

Often, these restrictions are imposed without compensation, meaning PV owners and operators bear the cost of grid limitations.

P.05System Inefficiency

It reflects a, at times, antiquated grid that cannot handle peak, distributed, or renewable generation.

// 03 — solution

Instead of relying on curtailment, the focus should be on building a smarter, more flexible infrastructure, increasing energy storage (batteries), improving grid connections, and implementing dynamic pricing to utilise excess solar energy effectively.
Our solutions capture renewable generation that would otherwise be curtailed, and redeploy it for higher-value end use.
