Green, Greener, Green Energy 3000
How Green Energy 3000 is improving the process of analyzing potential project sites with enhanced site analysis.
Who is Green Energy 3000?
With over two decades of experience in the solar industry and over 65 projects under its belt, Green Energy 3000 has an impressive portfolio of over 350 MW across multiple segments, including wind and solar farms, hybrid battery storage, and agricultural PV projects.
The company excels not only in building these projects but also in envisioning, financing, and maintaining them, ensuring each venture is both high-quality and sustainable.
At the heart of Green Energy 3000 is a team comprising around 80 people, that embodies innovation and courage in exploring new avenues in renewable energy. This forward-thinking approach is reflected in its global presence.
Headquartered in Leipzig, Germany, the company has branches and projects in France, Kazakhstan, and the United Arab Emirates.
Driven by ambition and an impressive portfolio, Green Energy 3000 was determined to enhance its operational workflow. The team started to look for a more efficient way to analyze potential project sites. Faced with the complexity of GIS tools and the inconsistent availability of data across Germany's regions, they wanted to streamline decision-making and overcome the hassle of time-consuming analyses that were hampering its efficiency.
Ambitious Goals, Ambitious Solutions
With their vision set so high, it also meant turning challenges into opportunities. Excelling at prospecting and with a good list of potential sites, the team recognized the need for a more efficient approach to project development challenges and bottlenecks:
- GIS skill challenge
Having to manage a large portfolio of projects, the team faced a challenge in efficiently handling site selection and analysis. The company has a capable GIS team consisting of 5 team members. A major challenge was the complexity of GIS tools, which made it difficult for other project development team members without GIS skills to select and analyze potential sites efficiently and with confidence. - German data challenges
The availability of data varies from state to state in Germany, making the workflow inconsistent and difficult. This hindered even quick preliminary analyses. - Time factor
Carrying out analyses took far too long, requiring a disproportionate allocation of resources and delaying project decisions.
The Goal: To optimize processes for greater overall efficiency
Green Energy 3000 set out to improve their project development processes and tackle the challenges they encountered. They aimed to make collaboration smoother, enhance data access, and increase efficiency.
Hitting the Mark: Glint Solar and Green Energy 3000
It was a matter of finding a tool that would fit seamlessly into their workflow and enhance their capabilities in renewable energy project development.
Green Energy 3000 decided to go with Glint Solar, selecting our software to boost their workflow and enhance efficiency in their solar development projects. Following a software demo and a successful trial phase, they quickly decided to implement our solution to optimize their operations.
The adoption of Glint Solar's software targeted some key areas for improvement:

Meet Polina Milanova and her colleague from Green Energy 3000, who have been using Glint Solar from the very beginning.
"Prior to using Glint Solar, our analysts and cartographers had to review each project approach for permitting feasibility, which resulted in resources being allocated to unfeasible projects. Now they are only entrusted with realizable projects, which increases the motivation and enjoyment of the work as well as the efficiency of the project pipeline."
Our collaboration with Green Energy 3000 reflects a shared commitment to innovation. Their initiatives to integrate battery storage technology and agrivoltaics are particularly inspiring. This partnership isn't just about productivity — it's about pushing progress in renewable energy.
