Today, Navisun announces a strategic partnership with GreenPowerMonitor (GPM), an asset management software provider, that will strengthen the company’s capabilities as a true independent power producer. The collaboration will see Navisun integrate GPM Horizon software into the management of its ~150MWdc fleet of operating and under-construction solar and storage assets, in addition to its development pipeline of future solar and storage assets.
GreenPowerMonitor, a DNV company (GPM), boasts extensive experience in solar and storage asset management. Its cutting-edge onsite and cloud solutions, including the GPM Horizon platform, support 23 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale and distributed generation renewable energy projects in the U.S. and 90 GW of projects worldwide with multi-technology monitoring and advanced analytics.
GPM Horizon software is currently being implemented across Navisun’s 45 photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system (BESS) assets, with plans to integrate the software with an additional four new construction assets throughout 2025. By utilizing the GPM Horizon platform across its entire fleet, Navisun will empower its asset management teams with the tools needed to monitor project performance in real-time and expedite actions to maintain asset availability, enhance reporting and forecasting capabilities, and improve revenue tracking and budgeting.
“GPM Horizon empowers Navisun to timely analyze asset performance, expedite corrective actions, plan preventative maintenance, optimize our reporting procedures, and track project-level revenues,” said Taylor Oldro, Navisun senior director of asset management. “With the implementation of GPM Horizon, Navisun continues to demonstrate a commitment to a new level of asset management excellence in the distributed generation space, and we are thankful for the wonderful support the GPM team has provided thus far.”
This partner collaboration marks a significant milestone in Navisun’s ongoing effort to develop an operational excellence center to manage its current and future fleet of operating solar and storage community solar assets. Last June, Navisun embarked on an effort to develop an operational excellence program to support its existing asset base and to position the organization to scale its growth. Through a combination of site visits, portfolio performance audits, and third-party analytics, Navisun gathered data to inform its go forward strategy and approach to operational excellence. These findings laid the foundation for an updated asset management program that leverages human expertise alongside software to support the company’s ambitious growth goals.
“From the very beginning, the GPM team was responsive to our feedback and genuinely invested in our success. Their support will help us to quickly bring all of our existing assets onto the platform by early Q2 2025 and begin leveraging this digital tool to improve our operations and become an industry leader in the DG space operating and managing our assets. What’s more, they are ready to scale with us. That mindset — plus GPM Horizon’s powerful software — are key traits we look for in a long-term partner,” said Stephen Campbell, COO of Navisun.
“At GPM, we are committed to driving success in the renewable energy industry with our on-site and cloud solutions. We are delighted to partner with Navisun, and equip their teams with the tools they need to enhance performance in their solar and storage (BESS) projects. By integrating GPM Horizon across Navisun’s fleet, we are offering advanced analytics including predictive analytics powered by AI, that will enhance efficiency and help with scalability. I look forward to seeing the growth potential this project brings to both organizations,“ said Juan Carlos Arévalo Executive Vice President GPM&S for DNV Energy Systems at DNV and CEO of GPM.
