PEAK’s special algorithms, including machine learning for exploring big data, will be integrated into GPM’s platforms.

With this optimized digital analytics platform GPM will be able to provide first-in-class advanced analytics services to the global solar industry, utilizing visualized insights and artificial intelligent-driven solutions.   

Energy Transition

By 2050, solar and wind will represent 69% of grid-connected power generation, and fossil power just 13%

DNV’s 2021 Energy Transition Outlook report forecasts that by 2050, solar and wind will represent 69% of grid-connected power generation, and fossil power just 13%.

Connectivity, storage, and demand response will be critical assets in the decarbonized power system. Over the coming 30 years, USD 12 trillion will be invested in both building a larger grid and adapting it to the variability of solar and wind through technical solutions. 

one-stop-solution

We see the acquisition of our analytics technology by the global knowledge leader GPM as a strong confirmation of the quality of the product we have developed over the last years,” said Michael Oberdorfer, CEO of Alteso.
