Spiral Mantra Private Limited

About Client The client is one of the leading renewable energy companies operating across multiple states, managing over 15 wind farms and 8 solar installations with a combined capacity of 2,500 MW. With growing energy demands and increasing grid complexity, the company faced significant challenges in optimizing power generation, predicting maintenance needs, and managing energy distribution efficiently. Client Requirements As a forward-thinking organization committed to sustainable energy solutions, the client sought innovative approaches to enhance operational efficiency while reducing costs and environmental impact. As part of the client requirement, the Spiral Mantra team of IT experts involved in an ongoing new project with the objective of deploying scalable solutions. Being part of the project, our team’s primary task is to provide accurate demand forecasting to optimize energy production and reduce waste, as their existing systems were causing 15-20% energy surplus during off-peak periods.  The company also struggled with real-time grid balancing, often experiencing inefficiencies when integrating renewable sources with traditional power grids. Additionally, they required enhanced predictive analytics for weather-dependent energy generation and automated decision-making systems to respond to rapidly changing energy market conditions. Solutions Provided by Spiral Mantra Team Spiral Mantra's expert team developed a comprehensive AI-powered energy management platform tailored to specific needs. The solution included machine learning algorithms for predictive maintenance that analyzed sensor data from over 500 wind turbines and 10,000 solar panels, identifying potential failures 30-45 days in advance.  Advanced demand forecasting models were implemented using historical consumption data, weather patterns, and economic indicators to predict energy demand with 95% accuracy. The team also created an intelligent grid balancing system that automatically adjusted power distribution based on real-time demand and supply fluctuations.  Final Outcome The implementation of Spiral Mantra's AI solutions delivered remarkable results, as the equipment downtime was reduced by 68%, saving approximately $1.56 million annually in maintenance costs. Energy waste decreased by 22% through improved demand forecasting, resulting in additional revenue of $3.2 million per year. The predictive maintenance system prevented 47 major equipment failures during the first year, avoiding potential losses of $8.4 million. Overall operational efficiency improved by 31%, while the automated grid balancing system reduced manual intervention by 85%. Read More

Project Overview The client demand planning team uses an in-house stat model (secondary sales forecasts, i.e., distributor to retailer for the future 3 to 5 months), which then undergoes the S&OP process with the CMM & TMM team to land at a consensus forecast. This is then used to create a distribution and production plan, which drives improved availability and inventory reduction. Currently, the state forecast generates a point estimate for a few sets of models like classical time series, random forest, prophet, etc., and the best of the lot is selected.  Also, the input drives for consumer and trade offers are just flags of whether the offer is running. The SC team wants to understand the sensitivity of all the drivers; for example, how will the demand vary if we increase our consumer offer from Rs 5 off to Rs 10 off, etc.? Additionally, as the sales team always has an aspirational number vs. the forecasted demand leading to high inventory in the system, we need a solution that can estimate a range (lower and upper limit at specific confidence level) so that during the S&OP process we can push the sales team, leading to reduced inventory, and experience better accuracy with the ranges. Solution Proposed Creating a dynamic forecast engine tool that can create forecasts at multiple granularities (brand or parent SKU, depot or national level, and combinations of these) and ensemble/stack multiple models to forecast the best possible point estimate. Creating a sensitivity/simulation module in the tool to dynamically update the demand basis new quantified drivers and understand the impact of changes in these drivers. Creating a range-based forecast tool that can forecast ranges for a specified confidence interval. Also, the range forecast should tie back to the point forecast. Read More
