SunReign Limited are the developers of an integrated software package that simplifies the process of planning, installing and running a set of solar panels on a large number of buildings. The process of decision-making, planning, installing and then operating a solar panel system is complex and very daunting for many users. As a result of these challenges, many parties are reluctant to install panels that will contribute to our shared climate change challenge.The SunReign team comprises a team of highly experienced engineers and software entrepreneurs who are developing a software solution that streamlines the process of knowing if, where, how to install and run solar panels on a large number of properties. The product is called "PowerMarket", this application automatically combines public data (satellite, weather and other data sources), productivity features (planning, guides, templates) and machine learning to automate and streamline the complete process of installing and operating solar panels. One of the crucial features of PowerMarket is to remove the complexity and worry associated with running a large number of distributed solar panel array sites. PowerMarket also automatically remotely monitors the installed solar panel installation. The software has been specifically developed to enable a customer to set up and operate many, distributed solar panel installations, without requiring specialist expertise or consultancy, and provide early detection of performance issues related to cleaning or faults. Typical customers might be local authorities and housing associations.SunReign has a working version of PowerMarket that is being pilot tested on solar panels on a portfolio of properties belonging to Ore Valley Housing Association in Fife. Via this pilot, the SunReign team has access to the solar panel installation information, has cleaned the data and digitised the locational information. However, this pilot doesn't have access to the granular building level data needed to enable the full value of the platform. The team is seeking Net Zero Living Digital Accelerator investment to enable the team to integrate energy performance certificate (EPC) with live solar generation data. This will enable the public housing asset owner to have access to actionable data with respect to its building portfolio solar potential, know how to prioritise solar installations to deliver the highest possible savings and energy efficiency to their tenants, and data tracking on-site solar energy consumption vs export, which can potentially be aggregated and sold to energy utilities via Corporate PowerPurchase Agreements generating additional income for the association.

SunReign Limited是一家集成软件包的开发商，该软件包简化了在大量建筑物上规划，安装和运行一组太阳能电池板的过程。决策、规划、安装和操作太阳能电池板系统的过程非常复杂，对许多用户来说非常令人生畏。由于这些挑战，许多各方都不愿意安装将对我们共同面临的气候变化挑战有所贡献的太阳能电池板。SunReign团队由经验丰富的工程师和软件企业家组成，他们正在开发一种软件解决方案，以简化了解是否，在何处，如何在大量物业上安装和运行太阳能电池板的过程。该产品名为“PowerMarket”，该应用程序自动结合公共数据（卫星，天气和其他数据源），生产力功能（规划，指南，模板）和机器学习，以自动化和简化安装和操作太阳能电池板的整个过程。PowerMarket的一个关键特点是消除了与运行大量分布式太阳能电池板阵列站点相关的复杂性和担忧。PowerMarket还可以自动远程监控太阳能电池板的安装情况。该软件是专门开发的，使客户能够设置和操作许多分布式太阳能电池板装置，而不需要专业知识或咨询，并提供与清洁或故障相关的性能问题的早期检测。典型的客户可能是地方当局和住房协会。SunReign有一个可运行的PowerMarket版本，正在在法夫的Ore Valley Housing Association的一组房产的太阳能电池板上进行试点测试。通过这个试点，SunReign团队可以访问太阳能电池板安装信息，清理数据并将位置信息数字化。然而，该试点项目无法获得实现平台全部价值所需的颗粒级建筑数据。该团队正在寻求净零生活数字加速器投资，使团队能够将能源绩效证书（EPC）与实时太阳能发电数据相结合。这将使公共住房资产所有者能够获得有关其建筑组合太阳能潜力的可操作数据，了解如何优先安装太阳能装置，为租户提供尽可能高的节约和能源效率，并跟踪现场太阳能消耗与出口的数据，这些数据有可能通过企业购电协议汇总并出售给能源公用事业公司，从而为协会带来额外收入。
