During the company’s four year life time this belief has proven to be true and to become increasingly important. Value creation in the renewable energy industry is dependent on high quality data from production assets. With so many actors in the value chain dependent on data to create value there is a need for products leveraging modern software to make the data available. During the past four years Greenbyte has developed two products - Breeze Development – for wind energy project developers and Breeze Production – for wind turbine owners.
