THE CHALLENGE

Your Plants Are Generating.
But Are They Performing?

No Fleet-Wide View

Plant managers juggle multiple dashboards, spreadsheets, and OEM portals. There is no single place to see the entire portfolio in one view.

Late Detection of Performance Issues

Faults and performance losses are identified only after energy is impacted, with no proactive alerting system in place.

Reports Built Manually

Performance reports for clients, lenders, or auditors are compiled manually every month, pulling data from disconnected sources with no audit trail.

THE SOLUTION

One Platform to Monitor, Analyse, and Optimise Every Asset Across Your Portfolio

Portfolio-Level Live Monitoring

Track every plant, every inverter, and every string across your entire fleet from a single cloud dashboard. Plant-wise and inverter-wise performance ranking updates continuously so your team always knows which asset needs attention first.

Chiller dashboard
  • Fleet PR, CUF, MA, PLF and generation tracking (Day, MTD, YTD, custom range)
  • Asset-wise performance benchmarking and ranking across technologies
  • System-wide communication health and data reliability monitoring across all sites

AI-Based Inverter Health Intelligence

The Merlin Inverter Health Index (IHI) scores every inverter daily using multi-dimensional performance data. Degrading inverters are flagged before they fail, giving O&M teams time to act rather than react.

Logbook tracking
  • Daily, weekly, and monthly health trend snapshots
  • Automated ranking updated continuously
  • Predictive fault signatures reduce mean time to repair

Wind Performance Optimization and Loss Intelligence

The platform identifies and categorizes energy losses specific to wind assets—such as wake effects, curtailment, turbine underperformance, and grid constraints. Each loss is quantified and linked to revenue impact, enabling operators to take targeted actions and maximize generation efficiency.

Fault dashboard
  • MTTR, MTBF feature and turbine interaction insights
  • Curtailment and grid unavailability tracking with revenue impact
  • Actual vs wind resource / baseline performance comparison

GEO Mapping

Topology-accurate fault localisation with live power flow. GIS layering lets operators drill from portfolio view down to string level without switching tools. Dynamic SLDs reflect real-time status for every asset in the plant.

Single line diagram
  • String, block, and inverter level GIS layering
  • Dynamic SLD with live power flow indicators
  • customisation report for focusing both solar and wind
  • Fault localisation overlaid on plant topology

Analytics and Reporting

Intelligence Built for High-Performance O&M

IEC 61724 compliant KPIs, automated compliance reports, and AI-driven anomaly detection, all in one place.

PR and CUF Tracking

Daily and monthly performance ratio with weather-normalised benchmarking

Inverter Heat Map

Visual ranking of inverter efficiency across your entire fleet

Fleet Benchmarking

Cross-plant and cross-cluster performance comparison with units lost calculation

Loss Decomposition

Soiling, thermal, mismatch, and clipping losses broken out automatically

HOW IT WORKS

Three Steps from Raw Site Data to Portfolio Intelligence

Step 1

Data Acquisition & Management

Merlin LDMS hardware at each site collects inverter, weather, and meter data at 1 to 15 minute intervals. Multi-protocol support covers Modbus, IEC 61850, IEC-104, OPC-UA, MQTT, and HTTP. Data is validated and compressed before transmission.

Step 2

Cloud Processing and Visualisation

Aggregated data flows to the Merlin cloud, where plant-wise and portfolio-level dashboards are updated in real time. GIS maps, SLDs, inverter rankings, and fault logs refresh automatically. No manual data entry at any step.

Step 3

Analytics, Alerts, and Reporting

Loss bucketing, health scoring, anomaly detection, and compliance KPI calculations run continuously. Pre-emptive alerts are dispatched by role. Automated daily, monthly, and annual reports are generated without operator intervention.
