Energy+ and RISC Software Combine Expertise in Smart Energy Management with AI

Intelligent Control Instead of Merely Reacting

The collaboration focuses on new approaches to the intelligent management of energy flows. As part of this effort, optimization models are being developed that will be integrated into R.E.S.I. in the future and are intended to further improve the coordination of power generation, storage, and consumption. “It was clear to us that we wanted to work with a strong research partner on the further development of R.E.S.I.,” says Michael Schneiderbauer, CEO of Energy+.“In RISC Software, we have found a partner that brings deep technological expertise to the table and supports us in controlling energy systems even more intelligently and efficiently in the future.”

RISC Software brings in-depth expertise in the areas of multi-output optimization, AI methods, and intelligent decision-making logic. “AI-supported optimization plans energy usage for the next day in a way that ensures renewable sources and storage are used as efficiently as possible,” explains Dominik Falkner, project manager at RISC Software. “This is based on forecasts of available renewable energy and expected consumption, which are incorporated into the planning process.”

Practical Experience Meets Research Expertise

Energy+ has extensive practical experience in the field of photovoltaic and energy storage solutions. With R.E.S.I., the company is developing an energy management system that integrates photovoltaics, energy storage, and consumers into a single intelligent system. The partnership with RISC Software now specifically complements this practical expertise with data-driven optimization capabilities. The collaboration underscores both companies’ commitment to driving innovation in the energy sector and developing new technologies for more efficient use of renewable energy.

Joint Research Project Funded by the FFG

The collaboration is part of a research project funded by the FFG and combines Energy+’s practical experience in photovoltaics and energy storage solutions with RISC Software’s technological expertise in data-driven optimization.
