Hinicio Introduces ANDREA: An Optimization and Simulation Tool for PtX Projects

Hinicio officially launches ANDREA, an advanced optimization and simulation tool designed for Power-to-X projects. Since 2021, Hinicio’s clients have leveraged ANDREA to swiftly and accurately model complex system architectures, tailor solutions, and generate key strategic insights for the techno-economic and operational success of their projects. By enabling data-driven decision-making with confidence, ANDREA helps optimize project performance and efficiency.

Power-to-X projects require a system engineering approach supported by advanced tools, robust data, and expert insights. ANDREA was developed to help industry professionals navigate this complexity, assess techno-economic feasibility and seamlessly integrate regulatory and environmental factors into the optimization process.

ANDREA is built on a systemic approach, analyzing the entire system to identify synergies across different processes. With its 8,760-time-step modeling capability, it can simulate multi-fluid energy systems, effectively detecting and mitigating bottlenecks and operational risks.

With a track record of over 100 Power-to-X projects, more than 9,000 cases analyzed, and over 4,000 hours of computation, ANDREA stands out as a versatile solution for applications in mobility, hydrogen, ammonia, e-fuels, and chemical installations.

What makes ANDREA a game changer for Power-to-X?
