The Background of Energy Quantified

Archived blog post. This blog post has been transferred from our previous blogging platform. Links and images may not work as intended.

We are three power market professionals, with 40 years of combined experience in pioneering, building and maintaining well-known analysis platforms. Make no mistake, we feel privileged to have worked with so many exceptional and smart people.

But, as these businesses grew, an increasing amount of time was spent on management and making technical compromises – not on the things we love, which is innovating and building new stuff. So one day an idea emerged: What if one could start all over, use only the best available technology and move with the speed and agility only enjoyed when travelling light?

Long story made short, that is exactly what we have embarked upon. We named it Energy Quantified.

This is the conclusion gleaned from EQ’s new Pan European hydro model, which will be launched soon.

EQ's new hydrology models indicate that we enter August with large differences in hydrological balance across the Alpine area. Switzerland and Austria now have reservoir fillings of, respectively, 12% and 8% above their seasonal normal, whereas France and Italy are on their seasonal normal. High snow reservoirs and delayed melting during the spring, was followed by a heatwave end of June and start of July. This sparked melting, which in turn led to high inflow levels and ultimately rapidly increasing hydro reservoir levels in Switzerland and Austria.
