From implementing intelligent asset management solutions to boosting the efficiency of your
maintenance teams, Blockbax speeds up the implementation of key capabilities to help you get
ready to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving energy landscape.
The energy network
of the future
Electricity supply and demand are becoming increasingly more complex with distributed
generation, storage, electric cars, smart appliances and intermittent renewables as main
drivers. Furthermore, both businesses and consumers are expecting data-driven services that will
help them moving towards lower and more sustainable energy consumption. All these factors
combined are also referred to as the energy transition.
This transition requires energy companies to take bold steps in order to prepare for the changes
ahead. Digital grid transformation, intelligent asset management and bringing a variety of new
technologies to your workforce are some of the top initiatives energy companies are taken to
prepare themselves for the future.
Smart energy solutions built
on the Blockbax Platform
Data, and more specifically sensor data plays a key role in nearly all the initiatives we see Energy
companies take in preparation of the energy transition. Accurate, granular and real-time data will
form the foundation of a digital twin. Such a digital twin in itself is the foundation for a digital
grid and more intelligent, proactive asset management.
This requires Energy companies to be able to quickly and easily deploy sensor-based initiatives and
translate the data in actions and insights that are input for a variety of operational
optimizations.
“Blockbax is one of our important partners that help us in becoming the smartest electricity grid operator in the
Netherlands. Their versatile and scalable solution gives us direct value to our business and our daily operations.”
Jaap KohlmannManager Data Science
“JUVA is a Dutch grid operator that uses the Blockbax Platform to quickly create insights into the performance and
status of our assets. The insights are used to increase the efficiency of a variety of maintenance and inspection
processes. Blockbax' No Code approach provides us with a self-service environment in which we create our own
dashboards and triggers. In doing so, we continuously transform our sensor data into new insights and more use
cases.”

Solve issues faster
Connect your assets to Blockbax and receive real-time alerts on failures related to short
circuits or overloads, issues with the public lighting or safety issues related to unwanted
open doors of power transformers. This will initially allow for more accurate issue
reporting and will provide all the context needed for quicker follow up by the right people.
Prevent power outages
The insights gained through Blockbax can be translated into rules and alerts that will help
with preventing issues and allow corrective measures to prevent them from happening. By
applying calculations on the incoming data in real-time, potential issues related to short
circuits or overloads can be identified prior to them happening to prevent power outages.
Fraud detection
Blockbax can be used to understand how data from your sensors can indicate potential energy
theft. Blockbax will accurately detect the location and moment in time of potential energy
theft the moment it occurs which will allow for a quicker response. This in itself can
potentially prevent public health and safety issues due to improper and uncontrolled use of
power.
