Preface
The BaseN Platform is a proprietary, high
performance distributed computing
environment, comparable to Google and
Facebook backends. It provides fully scalable
data collection, computing and client
presentations for massive data flows in a
multitude of industries.
The Platform is currently powered by more
than 1500 CPU's, and the amount is readily
expandable to millions.
In this millennium, state of the art, scalable
computing power is a prerequisite for any
large scale service delivery over IP networks.

Preface
BaseN has developed its system for telecom
networks and has successfully applied the
same technology to clean tech space.
We can immediately make real time data
available to millions of consumers in cost
effective way.
The BaseN Platform is measuring an
equivalent of more than 10 Smart Meters
every minute and making the data available
in real time.
BaseN is to be the foundation for the Smart
Grid by connecting every point of energy
consumption in real time.

• The apartment building itself produces
energy.
• An extensive solar energy system on

15 000 kilowatt hours of electricity per
annum
• Amount equivalent to about 30 percent
of total electricity consumption in the
building, excl. each apartments.

• The electricity produced by the solar
panels is used for instance for
charging an electric car, which are in
shared use of the building’s residents,
and for lighting the building’s stairwell.
• BaseN's system monitora and reports
on user-specific charging and energy
consumption of the electric cars.
