Greenfield and repowering analyses
We combine a multitude of different spatial data in our innovative GIS analyses in order to provide our customers with so far hidden potentials for new wind and solar farms. Whether it’s a single area or an entire region, our cloud-based solution is ready for your challenge.
Market analyses
We generate exceptual analyses of the German wind and solar market through the intelligent integration of unique data sources in order to explore new investment opportunities. From permitted farms, refinancing potentials in existing fleets, to repowering projects at end-of-life, with Nefino you are always one step ahead of your competitors.
End-of-life strategies
Sustainable investment must always go hand in hand with sustainable asset management. As a founding member of RDR Wind e.V., we advocate for a resource saving and simultainiously cost efficient dismantling of wind turbines at the end of their service life to guarantee sustainibility from the beginning til the end.
Our supporters – thank you!
Why we are your perfect match
Large amounts of data individually analysed. Solutions tailored to the specific challenge performantly generated, regardless of size and complexity – That’s what Nefino makes possible! Whether you and your organisation have been active in building and operating wind and solar farms for a long time or you are just at the beginning of pushing global decarbonisation forward, e.g. as a landowner or energy-intensive industries, Nefino will be able to help you make the most out of the renewable energy potential available to you!

What our customers say about us
Repowering, lifetime extension or dismantling? As part of our unique cooperation, Nefino identifies operators of future post-EEG plants and prepares them in the best possible way for the challenges ahead. Nefino analyses the optimal post-EEG strategy comprehensibly, and we take care of connecting operators with the right industry partners - in this way, we enable the optimal implementation of the developed strategy and jointly create a win-win-win situation for all parties involved.
With the unique combination of nationwide GIS analyses and precise asset and operator data, Nefino can show in detail where in Germany which operators will be confronted with the post-EEG issue at which time, and which wind and solar energy plants have a particularly high repowering and lifetime extension potential - the clear presentation of the market potential helps us to optimally align our own services with the upcoming post-EEG challenges of our customers.
Spatial, resource, lifetime and economic analyses combined in an integrated solution and applicable to any size of area under investigation - Nefino offers a unique "digital twin" of wind and solar systems that enables fast and precise simulations of technical and regulatory boundary conditions to be carried out and reliable recommendations for action to be derived - just one of the many reasons why we as a research centre are happy to draw on Nefino's expertise.
