Vancouver, BC, March 19, 2024--(T-Net)--Copperleaf Technologies Inc. (TSX: CPLF), announces the selection of its asset investment planning and decision analytics solution by two of Energias de Portugal's (EDP) distribution businesses, operating in Portugal and Spain.
E-REDES Portugal, the company that manages the electricity distribution network in mainland Portugal, has selected the Copperleaf solution to manage its ageing asset population, boost transparency into its planning process, and secure the long-term resilience of the network.
The electricity distribution system operator serves more than 6.5 million customers across mainland Portugal, spanning a network of 228,000 km.
The objective of this transformative project is to enhance asset management strategies in order to effectively handle the temporal progression of asset failure risk, stemming from the anticipated deterioration of their condition. This will facilitate the development of modernization strategies that, in combination with other investment drivers such as digitalization, electrification, and decarbonization, will form the multi-year investment portfolios.
Leveraging the copperleaf tool, E-REDES will refine and fine-tune these portfolios, ultimately delivering greater value for all stakeholders.
"EDP is driven by sustainability, and we are delighted the organization has chosen Copperleaf to support its decarbonization journey," said Cristiano Martincigh, Regional Director for Southern Europe and Middle East at Copperleaf. "Copperleaf will empower EDP's Portuguese and Spanish distribution companies to manage ageing assets, boost transparency into its planning process, and enhance investment decision making."
Stefan Sadnicki, Managing Director for EMEA, Copperleaf
"Like many energy companies, EDP must overcome a number of critical business challenges to achieve net zero goals," added Stefan Sadnicki, Managing Director for Copperleaf in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). "The Copperleaf solution will support the two operators to take a proactive approach to risk management and provide the agility it needs to plan for an uncertain future."
"We are confident that Copperleaf's solution will strengthen and streamline the development of long-term asset management strategies.", said Miguel Freitas, head of the Asset Management Strategy Department of E-REDES.
Rita Rebelo, Strategic Planning Manager for the high and medium voltage networks, added that "Copperleaf will empower our team to effectively create, manage, and optimize investment plans to achieve our overarching objectives."
