REEEP: How common vocabularies align the renewable energy ecosystem

Customer Success Story

PoolParty Semantic Suite enables quick exchange of data across multiple stakeholder groups.

The situation & challenge

In the climate and energy industry multiple stakeholder groups use a common body of knowledge. Exchange of existing information to create synergy effects is essential for them. The vocabularies that can be found in use among these groups vary considerably. This prevents profound decision making and the automated reuse of data across organizational boundaries is limited as well.

Political and economic decisions will take climate information increasingly into account. Therefore, a 360 degree view on climate issues was called for. PoolParty excels in linking and tagging data across platforms. Knowledge modeling in a graph suitable for the knowledge domain is the basic element.

The solution

The Climate Tagger is an application that is built on top of a comprehensive taxonomy. This knowledge graph was developed in a collaborative process with over 30 international experts specializing in renewable energy policies, climate change adaptation and mitigation finance. The taxonomy structures the knowledge domain and takes synonyms and other related information into account. The common vocabulary is available in five languages. Organizations can analyze their content through the Climate Tagger and annotate their digital assets with metadata through the underlying taxonomy and textmining capabilities. For example, when users search for solar plants, they can also get results for photovoltaic, which is synonymous with solar plant.
