Microgrids are an all-round intelligent solution.

You provide the space, and we support you in setting up the system. You can choose a campus or create an entire island for your microgrid solution – it is adaptable to virtually any local requirement and can withstand even harsh environments.

The energy source can be sustainable – photovoltaic, wind, hydro, or biomass – and the supply backed up through biodiesel generators, emergency power units, and storage systems. With Siemens software, you control the operation based on your energy demand at any time. This saves energy each day and money over the long term.

Microgrids: one for all and all for one

We work with you to design and deliver a comprehensive microgrid solution that meets your requirements perfectly. Start small and expand your system as your needs change. Show your commitment to sustainability – not only by using green power but also by feeding it back into the grid. That is good for the environment and good for your wallet.

 

The process is simple: First, we create an energy twin as a simulation of your entire microgrid project to give you a clear overview. Once the scope and design of your microgrid is clear, we determine the right controller. Then you can meet your energy management challenges head-on with near real-time performance data.
