About Us
Our story
Our name contains the essence of our core business: i-EM Intelligence in Energy Management. For over 20 years, we have been operating with enthusiasm in the market, initially within the Flyby group, and subsequently since 2013, we have focused on applications related to energy management, becoming independent and globally recognized company.
We collaborate with both public and private partners in this phase of digital transition. Thanks to our experience and a highly specialized team, we are leaders in strategic decision-making within the sector: solar, wind, hydroelectric, energy communities and trading. Through our cloud-based solutions, we provide tools that assist all sector operators in making the best decision for managing their energy assets.
Today i-EM operates worldwide, working on more than 800 renewable plants and includes a UK spin-off Company, i-EM SAT Ltd., based in the Harwell Campus, Oxford. i-EM SAT website
Mission
We create cloud-based solutions that provide a clear, comprehensive, and real-time view of the potential of the electrical grid, assisting industry operators in decision-making and forecasting processes.
Vision
Our vision is to manage the new energy ecosystem, including future Energy Communities, by forecasting the behaviour of all elements, including end users.
How we work
i-EM is an expert in the development of systems that provide an accurate overview of productivity and forecasting for the energy plants. It combines the collection of Big Data (including satellite data that accounts for weather, environmental, and energy forecasts) with the use of ML (machine learning) models capable of automatically learning from data. These models are powered by the analytical capabilities of the company’s data scientists, who organize the information and research innovative algorithms to solve problems and develop specific models for all users. The SaaS (Software as a Service) developed provides detailed analyses for all energy sectors, covering the entire Advanced Analytics value chain.
Deeply into data
From complex dataset to easy-to-use information
Machine Learning (ML) models are i-EM technologies core, providing data insights which human beings can’t reach on their own and ML-based solution for REs energy assests managers to improve data usage quality.
Data Management
From data acquisition to visualization, i-EM exploits Big Data cloud-based infrastructure.
Data Quality
i-EM strongly focuses the attention on the quality of the data to guarantee the ML model output reliability.
Synergistic Approach
i-EM strongly believes in this synergistic approach between data scientists and domain operators.
Open Black Box
Several methodologies to help the non-data scientists and get all the benefits from them.
Intelligence into practice
Thanks to our expertise, industry experience, and a team of specialists dedicated to research and innovation, we have developed winning solutions to best support the work of our clients in the solar, hydroelectric, wind, grid, and energy trading sectors.
