Contigo Energía | IoT

Challenge

Contigo Energía, a subsidiary of the Gesternova group, needed to bring the company closer to its customers. To do this, they requested a solution to connect their customers with the solar panels.

Contigo Energía promotes and facilitates the use of renewable energies through the support they provide to their customers to design, finance, and install solar self-consumption systems.

Solution

An MVP of an IoT platform to collect data and a mobile app that connects the solar panels with their customers, monitoring in real time the most relevant data from their installation (generated power, energy savings, CO2 emissions avoided, production, consumption, etc.), with a modular and scalable solution designed to support countless future applications. In addition, an alert system was incorporated.

Result

The MVP validated the feasibility of extracting the necessary data, storing it, and publishing it through the App, as well as exploiting this data to facilitate decision-making. Contigo Energía will be able to:

• Increase visibility that customers have of the data generated by their solar panels, thus increasing engagement.
• Obtain valuable data to start a decision-making strategy based on the interpretation of the collected data, helping to improve the service.
• Enhance the daily operation of their facilities with the generation of alerts.
