Catalyst Platform

Currently building Catalyst at Phelas — a SaaS platform that helps renewable energy professionals make smarter investment decisions through data-driven simulations and optimization.

The renewable energy landscape is increasingly complex: fluctuating market prices, evolving regulations, and the growing importance of storage and hybrid assets. Catalyst cuts through this complexity by providing clear, actionable insights.

What Catalyst Does:

• Models how combinations of assets (battery storage, solar PV, wind, hybrid systems) perform under specific market and operational conditions.
• Combines user input data (generation curves, market price forward curves, grid constraints) with advanced optimization algorithms.
• Simulates asset operation and calculates expected revenues across different market scenarios.

Key Features:

• Time resolution at hourly or quarter-hourly intervals for granular analysis.
• Flexible scenario testing to evaluate trade-offs and maximize profitability.
• Clear financial metrics: net revenues, IRR, NPV, and market participation breakdowns.

Who Uses It:

• Investors and financial institutions assessing risk before committing capital.
• Renewable project developers optimizing asset sizing and project design.
• Independent Power Producers analyzing revenue streams.
• Energy consultants providing clients with robust, transparent analysis.
