What Opoura does

Opoura (legal name Opoura A/S, formerly SCADA International) is a Denmark-headquartered software and engineering firm serving the renewable energy sector. Founded in 2006 by CEO Thomas Bagger in Silkeborg, the company has grown to 101–250 employees across nine countries (Denmark, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Spain, Portugal, USA, UK). Opoura offers an end-to-end, technology-agnostic platform anchored by its proprietary OneView® software family — covering SCADA monitoring, Portfolio SCADA aggregation, the Hybrid Control Unit (HCU) power plant controller, Energy Trading Software (ETRM), and patented Foundation Monitor hardware. The platform supports wind, solar PV, BESS (battery energy storage), hydropower, PtX, and hybrid configurations, and is designed to manage diverse communication protocols and asset interface types in a unified operating environment.

Opoura's go-to-market targets four primary customer segments: Independent Power Producers (IPPs), Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Power Traders and Balance Responsible Parties (BRPs), and Transmission System Operators (TSOs). Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring software subscriptions (SCADA, ETRM), hardware sales (Lean SCADA cabinets and servers produced in-house), and professional services including grid connection studies, OT/NIS2 cybersecurity consulting, installation, commissioning, and on-site fiber splicing. Pricing is custom and quote-based, reflecting enterprise engagement scope. Following the 2022 partnership with private equity firm Magnesium Capital LLP (majority investor), Opoura completed four acquisitions in 2024 — Sweet Geeks, Next Consult, Quantec Systems GmbH, and NovoGrid — and rebranded from SCADA International to Opoura on December 17, 2024, with formal brand unification effective January 1, 2025. The company holds four ISO certifications (27001:2022, 9001:2015, 14001:2015, 45001:2018) and has been recognized as a Børsen Gazelle in both 2024 and 2025.

Emerging players

• Akselos: Physics-based structural health monitoring software for wind turbine foundations, towers and offshore assets. Closest competitor to Opoura's patented OneView® Foundation Monitor, addressing the same wind OEM/operator pain points.

Broad incumbents

• Hitachi Energy: Global grid and energy management vendor (e-mesh, Lumada APM, and now Greenbyte) serving TSOs, DSOs and renewable asset owners. Directly comparable to Opoura's hybrid power plant controller, OT/SCADA asset management and energy trading offerings.
• Siemens Smart Infrastructure: Siemens's energy and grid software portfolio (Spectrum Power, Gridscale X, Raster) plus Siemens Gamesa ties overlap directly with Opoura's SCADA, ETRM and power plant controller offerings; Siemens Gamesa is also a named Opoura customer.
• ABB: Industrial automation and grid software vendor offering Ability™ OPTIMAX, Microgrid Plus, and SCADA solutions for renewable plants. Overlaps with Opoura on SCADA, plant controllers, and grid compliance for wind/solar/BESS sites.
• ION Commodities (Openlink / Allegro): Leading ETRM vendor (Openlink Findur, Allegro) serving power and gas traders. Comparable to Opoura's Energy Trading Software for traders/BRPs, although typically deployed at larger, multi-commodity trading houses.
• GE Vernova: Spun out of GE in 2024, GE Vernova combines wind OEM, grid solutions, and renewable asset management software (including Power Conversion, GridOS). Competes with Opoura across SCADA, power plant control and grid services for utility-scale renewables.
• Schneider Electric: EcoStruxure platform spans energy management, microgrid and renewable asset software. Comparable to Opoura on hybrid power plant control, OT/IT integration, and grid-edge services for commercial and utility-scale renewable operators.

Others

• Vestas: World's largest wind turbine OEM, which increasingly bundles its own SCADA and asset performance services with turbines. Adjacent rather than direct competitor; overlaps with Opoura's OEM outsourcing value proposition and Lean SCADA offering.

Direct peers

• Smarter Grid Solutions: DERMS and active network management software vendor (ANM Strata) used by utilities and developers to integrate DERs and hybrid plants. Closely comparable to Opoura's Hybrid Control Unit and grid-compliance value proposition.
• Greenbyte: Cloud-based wind and solar asset management/O&M SaaS platform, now owned by Hitachi Energy. Most direct comparable to Opoura's OneView® Portfolio SCADA - same customer segment (IPPs and OEMs), same asset types (wind, solar, BESS), and SaaS-style recurring model.
