Questions from energy teams.
How do I know Bruin’s availability and curtailment numbers are right?
Every answer comes with the query and the sources behind it. Availability, curtailment and captured price have one definition, tested on every run, so asset management, trading and finance use the same number.
Our meter, SCADA and settlement data disagree. Can Bruin tell which is right?
Bruin shows where they disagree, and why: estimated reads, missing intervals or normal losses. Your contract decides what goes on the invoice.
Which energy systems does Bruin connect to?
SCADA and historian data from InfluxDB or database exports, meter and settlement files over SFTP, market prices and weather through APIs, and SAP HANA or your warehouse.
Can Bruin handle 10-minute SCADA data from every site?
Yes. Pipelines load only the new intervals on each run, and quality checks flag gaps, duplicates and estimated reads.
Can Bruin catch estimated meter reads before invoice day?
Yes. Set a rule, like estimated meter reads at any site, and Bruin checks every morning, posts in #asset-management and can email the meter operator for actual reads.
Can Bruin build the monthly owner report for each site?
Yes. Schedule a PDF per site or portfolio with generation, availability, curtailment and captured price, and mark a site provisional until the reads are final. Every figure links to its query.
Does Bruin need to connect to our SCADA network?
No. It works from historian exports, meter and settlement files over SFTP, or read replicas, so nothing needs to reach the control network. It can also run in your own VPC or on-premises.
Can site ops, trading and finance use Bruin in Microsoft Teams?
Yes. Bruin answers in Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram, email or the browser. Pricing is not per seat, so the whole team can ask.
How is Bruin different from Power BI?
Power BI shows the reports someone already built. Bruin answers the next question in chat, runs the query itself, shows its sources, and builds a dashboard when you need one.
How is Bruin different from asking ChatGPT about our energy data?
A chat assistant only sees what you paste in. Bruin answers from your connected SCADA, meter and market data, runs the query itself and shows its sources.
How much does Bruin cost, and is it per seat?
Bruin Cloud is free to start: $100 in credits and 50 AI tasks, no credit card. After that, compute is billed per second (about $2.50 an hour for SQL, $10 on a standard instance) and AI tasks cost $1 to $3 each, depending on complexity. Committed-use discounts lower the rate as usage grows. No seats. VPC or on-prem: book a demo.
Is our energy data safe with Bruin?
Bruin is SOC 2 Type 2 attested and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified. Your data stays in your warehouse and is never used to train AI models.
