What we do

Three asset classes. One system.

01

Solar PV

Utility-scale and industrial solar, developed on realistic capture rates and curtailment economics rather than spreadsheet optimism.

02

Battery storage

Grid-scale BESS with revenue stacking across day-ahead, intraday and ancillary markets. Sized, financed and dispatched by our own models.

03

Digital infrastructure

Data centers co-located with generation and storage, engineered for the grid of the 2030s: flexible, efficient and connected where power is.

04

Energy intelligence

Forecasting, grid modelling and dispatch software built in-house. The same tools that shape our investment decisions run our assets.

Selected work

The models behind the method.

A selection of tools and analyses we built and run: from open grid models to live asset steering. Public projects link through.

Grid modelling

BirdFlow

Open PyPSA-based DC power flow model of the Dutch high-voltage grid: congestion, N-1 loading and connection feasibility per node.

View project
Offshore wind

Offshore wind NL

Analysis of the Dutch offshore wind buildout: capture prices, hydrogen coupling and what 21 GW by 2032 does to the market.

View project
Price forecasting

BirdCurve NL

Hourly Dutch power price forecasting to 2050: day-ahead, intraday and imbalance, built for BESS investment cases.

View project
BESS

Storage sizing and dispatch

Quarter-hour energy flow models (8760 h) that size power and capacity, then value the battery across day-ahead, imbalance and FCR.

NL 2030 price prognosis

Merit-order dispatch model of the 2030 Dutch market: renewable buildout, V2G and storage against hourly demand.

Solar

PV yield and live curtailment

Inverter sizing, clipping and EPEX-weighted yield, plus live PV curtailment on imbalance prices via inverter gateways.

Why integrated

Energy and compute belong together.

The energy transition and the compute buildout are the same story. Power-hungry digital infrastructure strains the grid when it stands alone. Developed together with generation and storage, it becomes part of the solution.

Grid-aware siting

We develop where the grid has room, informed by our own congestion and power flow modelling.

Flexibility by design

Batteries and flexible IT load turn volatile electricity prices into margin instead of risk.

One system, one balance sheet

Generation, storage and load optimized together outperform each of them optimized alone.

Our approach

From site to operating asset.

  1. 01

    Originate

    We find sites and grid positions others overlook, using data before brokers.

  2. 02

    Develop

    Permits, grid connection and design, carried by people who model the physics themselves.

  3. 03

    Finance

    Investment cases built on market fundamentals to 2050, stress-tested, not sold.

  4. 04

    Build

    Delivery with proven EPC and technology partners, specified to the component level.

  5. 05

    Operate

    Our own software trades, dispatches and monitors every asset we bring online.
