The Market ProblemSolar and wind asset owners have invested heavily in SCADA, DAS and monitoring platforms. These systems generate thousands of alarms and operating signals —
but they do not complete the operational work.
- Which alarms represent real production loss
- What equipment is affected
- How much generation and revenue are at risk
- Which incident should be handled first
- What action the field team should take
- Whether production recovered after intervention
As renewable portfolios grow, owners typically respond by adding more monitoring personnel. Costs rise with every site while engineers spend valuable time reviewing repetitive alarms, moving between disconnected systems and preparing manual escalation reports.
Existing software provides more screens and notifications.
It rarely takes accountability for investigating an event, validating the response and following it through to resolution.
Power
OpsHQ is an AI-enabled, human-validated remote operations center for solar and wind assets.
Our product,
Power Ops IQ
, is a fully developed, deployment-ready AI-agentic monitoring system already monitoring 8 GW of power assets worldwide. It connects to the asset owner's existing monitoring environment — no expensive SCADA replacement required.
Specialized AI agents work every event, continuously:
Sentinel Monitors equipment and production signals around the clock
Impact Estimates production and revenue exposure to prioritize what matters
Dispatch Prepares a field-ready action with affected asset, evidence and next step
Recovery Tracks the event through restoration and updates the operating playbook
A Power
OpsHQ operations engineer validates consequential findings before escalation. The customer's field team receives a prioritized action with the affected asset, supporting evidence and a recommended next step —
not another raw alarm.
Technology development and remote monitoring operations are handled by the Power
OpsHQ supporting team.
The Co-Founder's responsibility is to win customers and grow the business.
Power
OpsHQ is not selling another monitoring platform. We sell a managed operating outcome
: fewer unresolved events, faster response and better-performing assets.
For renewable asset owners, that means:
- Lower cost of continuously monitoring growing portfolios
- Production-impacting issues found earlier
- Less repetitive manual alarm investigation
- More…
