Norway, Bærum: DNV has acquired Proxima Solutions, a provider of a digital platform for remote monitoring and asset management of renewable energy plants.
Proxima Solutions offers a suite of artificial intelligence-based (AI) asset management software tools that enable renewable energy asset owners and managers to optimize operations, assess plant performance and maximize energy production. Headquartered in Berlin, Germany, Proxima Solutions operates a technology centre in Madrid, Spain, and is active in over eight target countries.
“It is a very exciting start to 2023 as DNV continues to invest in companies that are driving forward renewable energies. I am really pleased to welcome Proxima Solutions to the DNV family, and I believe that by combining Proxima Solutions’ advanced predictive failure analysis, downtime analysis and categorization functionalities with our performance and life assessment functionalities, GPM will be able to offer best-in-class tools to renewable asset owners globally,” said Ditlev Engel, CEO of Energy Systems at DNV.
The acquisition of Proxima Solutions is all the timelier as DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook forecasts, for the first time, that non-fossil energy will move slightly above 50 % of the global energy mix by 2050. This is mainly because of the growing and greening of electricity production. Solar PV and wind are already the cheapest forms of electricity in most locations and by 2050 they will grow 20-fold and 10-fold respectively and will dominate electricity production with 38 % and 31 % shares, respectively.
