In times of volatile energy markets, growing sustainability demands, and increasing technical complexity, one thing is becoming clear: weather data is no longer just “nice to have” – it’s a critical business asset.
Traditional weather forecasts are no longer sufficient for the demands of modern businesses. What’s needed are AI-powered, process-specific forecasts tailored to individual sites and operations.
The Challenge: Weather as a Source of Uncertainty
Whether it’s heating networks, solar power plants, or manufacturing facilities – weather influences key business processes.
Yet many companies still rely on coarse standard data, outdated Excel models, or internal estimates. The consequences:
- Overestimated energy deployment
- Inaccurate power market strategies
- Inefficient maintenance and production planning
The result: unnecessary costs, lost potential, and reduced competitiveness.
The Solution: The alitiq engine
The alitiq engine is an AI-based forecasting platform built on billions of historical weather observations, combined with cutting-edge deep learning algorithms. The outcome: forecasts that are up to 40% more accurate than conventional models.
Key Benefits:
- Hourly updated forecasts for PV yield, heat demand, and hydropower generation
- Custom modeling based on your system and location
- Web API for seamless system integration
- Scalable across multiple sites or operations
Who Benefits Most?
- Municipal utilities & energy providers looking to optimize district heating and electricity production
- Industrial companies with weather-sensitive processes and energy consumption
- Consulting firms & engineering offices searching for innovative solutions for their clients
- Smart grid and digital energy projects that require real-time data inputs
Sustainability Meets Profitability
A real-world example: A regional utility was able to reduce its gas consumption by 12% through more accurate heat load forecasts – while maintaining high supply reliability.
Solar operators benefit from improved forecasts through more effective spot market trading – leading to measurable revenue increases.
Conclusion: Precision That Pays Off
Weather is becoming increasingly unpredictable – your business processes shouldn’t be.
If your operations depend on weather, you need more than just a weather app. The alitiq engine provides an intelligent early-warning system that turns complex data into actionable business decisions.
