Portfolio aggregation is a growing trend in the renewable energy industry. Years of growth and consolidation have yielded larger, more diverse fleets for almost all industry players. As the industry matures, companies are looking for ways to streamline management of complex portfolios to drive down costs, improve performance, and increase profitability. Portfolio aggregation reduces costs by streamlining workflows and optimizing resource allocation. Standardizing on one enterprise-level application can improve data management and record keeping, enabling more insightful reporting and understanding of operations to establish best practices. Aggregation also promotes better synchronization between field workers, operations centers, and the central office.
