Here are some of our episode highlights with Lemonbeat’s Co-Founder & CEO, Oliver van der Mond!
Customer Success
“With the example of managing a smart boiler room in one’s home, Lemonbeat can help you easily save 20–30% of the primary energy, whether it be gas, oil, etc., without the loss of any convenience.”
Standing Out from the Competition
“We have built Lemonbeat in a way that it can really grow from a very small system to a very large system in a seamless way. IoT makes it possible to uncover inefficiencies. But to uncover them, you need to make those solutions cost-efficient and scalable. With Lemonbeat, you can uncover the inefficiencies and remotely adjust them.”
Working With SAP
“What we are offering is quite complementary to what SAP is offering. It’s a very good fit- we have almost no overlap, so technically speaking, there is an interface where we are meeting. We are taking care of whatever happens in the field so that we get the data, and SAP can take care of what is actually done with the data.”
On Becoming an energenius
“What is actually necessary is that you can think beyond just energy-related applications. You are using what the energy industry brings to the table, like large networks and a large asset base, but I think what is necessary that you then have the vision or the creativity to think outside of pure energy-related use cases. Let’s say with Amazon, they started with selling books online, but that was not the vision. If they would have just said ‘OK — we are the biggest dealer for books online, and all of the stuff we want to offer our customers has to do with selling books,’ I don’t know if we would have the Amazon Echo today. You need to be courageous and forward-looking enough to think what kind of data you can get out of this.”
