Renewable energy financing relies on accurate resource assessments that show a site can generate sufficient wind or solar output over its operating life. Errors or gaps in measurement data can delay financing, increase the cost of capital, or undermine a bankability review. Developers and lenders therefore treat complete, calibrated and independently reviewed datasets as essential.
The integration combines Resource Panorama, DNV’s meteorological data platform, with GPM Horizon, the asset management system operated by GreenPowerMonitor, a DNV company.
The platform automates equipment monitoring and applies DNV’s data quality algorithms across wind and solar projects. It tracks sensor performance, communications links and power systems in real time and flags faults as they occur. Each dataset is then reviewed by analysts before release, creating a traceable record from field instrument to project file.
“Developers must move quickly, but they cannot compromise on data quality,” said Juan Carlos Arévalo, executive vice-president, GPM&S – Digital & Data Solutions, Energy Systems at DNV. “These remote monitoring and asset management tools already process 10 billion data points every second. By unifying these platforms, we provide a single source of validated data that developers can present to lenders with confidence.”
The system draws on data from tens of thousands of measurement stations worldwide. The platform’s infrastructure processes more than 10 billion data points per second across its asset management tools, reflecting the scale of operational data generated as renewable capacity expands. The integration now covers the full project life cycle and aligns DNV’s digital and advisory services with the data workflows used in project development: as developers operate across multiple markets, the ability to produce finance ready resource assessments efficiently is becoming increasingly important in a capital constrained environment.
Resource Panorama was first introduced in 2010 and supports data management from early site investigation through commercial operation, covering meteorological masts, remote sensing devices and solar monitoring stations.
