Introduction
What is an asset
An asset on Tensor Cloud is one or more systems that share a grid connection point. It can combine solar PV, battery storage, hydro, biomass, and load components, with at most one component of each type. Hydro and biomass components are available when enabled for your workspace; contact Tensor to enable them. A hydro or biomass component cannot be combined with other components.
Assets are the smallest building block of your renewable energy portfolio on Tensor Cloud. An asset can represent a real-world system at any stage of development, from early planning to after COD.
Tensor Cloud has no fixed limit on the number of assets you can manage, and a single workspace can hold thousands of them.
How assets relate to other building blocks
Assets connect to the other building blocks on Tensor Cloud as follows:
| Building block | Relationship |
|---|---|
| SPV | Each asset can belong to at most one SPV. One SPV can contain multiple assets. |
| BG | Each asset can belong to one generation BG and one demand BG. One BG can contain multiple assets. |
| Scenario | Each asset is linked to a single scenario. One scenario can be linked to multiple assets. |
| PPA | Each asset can be associated with at most one PPA. One PPA can be linked to multiple assets. |
How to create an asset
Create an asset from the asset list with the Add new button, or click anywhere on the asset map and create it from the side bar on the right. Assets can only be located within Japan; Okinawa is not supported.
For larger portfolios, Bulk upload imports up to 1,000 assets at once from a standardized Excel template.
