Artelys Crystal Server can be used, in a complementary way, within a client-server architecture to plan and automate the various operational procedures or to deport the heavy computations associated with the constant growth of data volumes.
Artelys Crystal Forecast can also be linked to web interfaces to publish results, dashboards or reports.
countless applications
— Improve your risk management procedures by reducing your short-term errors
Make your buying operations in the marketplace efficiently and cost-effectively
Artelys Crystal Forecast can be use by any market player who buys or sells power and is financially responsible for deviations in the network it creates.
Our solution allows positioning on intraday, day-ahead and forwards contracts by minimizing forecasting errors that can lead to significant deviations from actual results and represent significant operational costs.
Anticipate operational risks and failures
In regulated contexts, the anticipation of tension between demand and energy supply is an essential dimension of day-to-day network management. Artelys Crystal Forecast supports you in anticipation of these potential defects related to the combination of simultaneous effects and participates in the implementation of appropriate procedures such as demand response or temporary reorganization of the network and allows you to avoid triggering expensive procedures.

— Represent medium-term uncertainty on the evolution of demand
For the management of hydraulic reservoirs, storage capacities or “take or pay” contracts, a medium consumption scenario is not sufficient to define suitable medium-term strategies.
With Artelys Crystal Forecast, you can simulate hundreds of scenarios from temperature scenarios and economic evolution assumptions to test the robustness of your system and adapt it.
— Create long-term demand scenarios for strategic investments
The projection of energy demand, subject to profound structural changes in terms of efficiency, flexible technologies or mix of uses, all combined with macroeconomic assumptions is a subject of prime importance for strategic planning at the horizons of 10, 20 or 30 years.
Artelys Crystal Forecast allows you to describe and implement a bottom-up structure of your data and to configure evolution scenarios to perform technical-economic simulations and then use them as input data of a capacity optimization or a strategic study on the impact of policy decisions.

— Managing the evolution of the behavior of your client portfolio
Any company offering a service to a customer portfolio needs to anticipate its structural evolution and determine the consequences on consumption in order to better adapt resources and means of supply.
Application example:
- By a telecom company to monthly order the number of resources to allocate to call centers taking into account the diversity of requests and their seasonality
- By medium and large-scale retailers wishing to have precise forecasts of sales by type of product or purchasing sector, for each segment of their portfolio in order to improve their reporting and financial planning and optimize inventories
