Kraken Technologies is part of Octopus Energy Group. Its tech platform, Kraken, connects up all parts of the energy system, from customer billing to flexible management of renewable generation and energy devices. It is also revolutionizing service for other utilities such as water and broadband.

Kraken allows for extended analytics, real-time monitoring, optimization and control of energy devices, such as solar and wind generation, batteries, heat pumps and electric cars, and enables companies to drive efficiency and meet important net-zero targets.

The Sennen software uses the latest cloud technology to streamline oversight, maintenance and daily operation of renewable energy projects. Joining forces with Sennen will enhance Kraken’s asset management offering, allowing it to develop more innovative products and services.

The acquisition of Sennen will increase Kraken’s contracted energy generation and storage assets sixfold, growing them from 6.5 GW to 36 GW. It also marks the first time the platform will be managing offshore wind farms.

Players in asset management have traditionally relied on legacy systems, lacking the bleeding-edge tech that modern renewable energy operations demand. Sennen’s in-depth maintenance and analytics platform supports thousands of sites including offshore wind farms, solar farms and grid scale batteries.
