PES met up with Brigitte Beck, CEO at Solare Datensysteme GmbH. Their new portal, developed over 2 years, with input from customers, provides plant operators with an even faster and deeper fault analysis, saving considerable time and expenditure. They are at the cutting edge of digitalisation and that is where they aim to stay.
‘The interaction of our new, powerful hardware with the flexible software leaves nothing to be desired for users.’
PES: Hello Brigitte, it is my pleasure to welcome you to PES Solar. It’s been a while since we talked to someone from Solar-LogTM and it’s great to have the opportunity to get informed. The company has been part of the BKW Group, one of the largest energy service providers in Switzerland, for quite some time now and there was a change in the management of the company last year. Would you first like to give our readers a brief overview of the company?
Brigitte Beck: Solare Datensysteme GmbH (SDS) has been very successfully active in the global market for almost 15 years with its well-known Solar-LogTM brand. Since 2015, SDS has been part of the listed energy group BKW AG in Switzerland. We have developed from purely providing PV monitoring into a provider covering the entire energy management spectrum. In 2019 and 2020, Solar-Log has taken further decisive steps into the future and is venturing into new dimensions with innovations in the hard and software sector. We have transformed, or newly implemented processes, in order to develop even faster and closer to the market and customers.
In recent years we have supplemented our team of experts with numerous new specialists and managers with industry experience in order to implement the latest technologies. The networking with BKW has been further expanded, resulting in a transfer of knowledge in both directions and many helpful synergy effects.
