Through the ETAP platform, we aim to enhance grid flexibility, deliver the benefits of point-to-point energy management and promote the sustainable development of renewable energy in Hong Kong."

Combining energy management and engineering solutions, ETAP integrates software suites such as ALPI, IGE+XAO and BIM Electric, further optimizing energy management systems. By expanding its software portfolio to include SEE Electrical software suite, Caneco ONE, and Advanced Electrical Design for Revit, ETAP has developed a comprehensive energy management platform, providing virtual modeling and comprehensive analysis for the entire lifecycle of power systems from design, construction, operation to maintenance. This in turn offers innovative software solutions that meet the diverse needs of utilities, data centers, public transport systems, power plants, and end users. To date, ETAP has provided services to over 20,000 corporate users worldwide. In the foreseeable future, ETAP will achieve full data integration to support the infrastructure, building construction, and manufacturing industries to achieve point-to-point management.

The new integrated ETAP Digital Twin Platform provides a complete solution and systems delivery for the entire lifecycle of renewable energy usage, from design, construction, to operation and maintenance. Its functions, such as distributed energy access analysis verification and electrical power quality analysis and optimization, effectively ensure the safety and stability of power systems before and after the integration of renewable energy sources, and enhance the value and economic benefits that renewable energy delivers to society.
