- Gamechanger Transparency: Franz Humer, co-founder of AGILOX and CEO of novventos, emphasizes transparency as the key to higher energy yield, optimized maintenance management, and sustainable investment protection.
- Technological Core: The combination of smart sensor technology and WAKU Care enables real-time monitoring, AI-driven predictive maintenance, and mobile maintenance planning – setting a new quality standard for the operation and servicing of decentralized energy systems.
Neukirchen/Austria, Radeberg/Germany. 03.09.2025.
The Austrian cleantech startup novventos Clean Energy GmbH, provider of vertical nacaboost small wind turbines for local and decentralized energy generation, and the Dresden-based software company WAKU Robotics GmbH, developer of the maintenance platform WAKU Care, announce a strategic partnership.
The aim of the collaboration is to manage decentralized energy assets more efficiently over their life cycle, plan maintenance operations more precisely, and use data-driven analysis to make energy output transparent for operators.
novventos’ technology is characterized by permanent, automated optimization of turbine performance – precisely adapted to the respective environmental conditions. By integrating these operational data into the WAKU Care platform, a scalable solution emerges that goes far beyond individual local installations. Customers benefit from enhanced system intelligence: investments in wind energy are sustainably secured through forward-looking, action-oriented insights – for example through optimized maintenance management and targeted asset management.
“Transparency is the key to effectiveness. Our customers don’t have to guess how well their wind turbines are working – they can see it, measure it, and continuously improve it. WAKU Care helps us make this information advantage easily accessible and keep the life-time service as lean as possible,”
says Franz Humer, CEO of novventos.
“With this cooperation we demonstrate that technological excellence in hardware and digital intelligence in software go hand in hand. Visibility is not an end in itself, but the foundation for operational excellence, lower costs, and higher availability,”
adds Victor Splittgerber, CEO of WAKU Robotics.
Technological Core of the Solution
The combination of intelligent sensor technology with the modular WAKU Care platform. novventos generally offers numerous open interfaces for integration with higher-level systems. Through MQTT integration with WAKU Care, operational data is captured in real time, analyzed, and translated into concrete maintenance decisions. This enables:
- Real-time monitoring of turbine performance
- AI-driven anomaly detection and predictive maintenance
- Mobile maintenance planning and ticket management
- Full transparency for operators, service partners, and end customers
With this digital infrastructure, novventos sets a new quality standard in the operation of decentralized energy systems. The technology opens up new markets – particularly in industrial applications and off-grid regions where autonomy, maintenance reliability, and efficiency are key requirements.
