Halyard
Grid-scale forecasting for renewable energy operators.
Overview
Halyard forecasts generation and price across wind and solar portfolios, letting operators bid into energy markets with far greater confidence and materially higher realised revenue.
Halyard came out of a research group with a decade of atmospheric modelling behind it. Turning that into a commercial forecast meant a training bill no research spin-out could carry, which is precisely what the pass was built for.
What Stackpass unlocked
-
01
$250,000 of training compute
The maximum cloud allocation covered the GPU hours needed to move a decade of academic modelling into a production forecasting service.
-
02
Commercial help for a research team
Mentors from the go-to-market track ran the pricing and enterprise packaging work the founders had never had to do before.
-
03
European energy introductions
Regional community events in Copenhagen and Berlin produced their first two grid-operator pilots.
