The renewable energy industry is booming, with wind turbines taking on a central role in driving this growth. While the wind energy sector continues to grow, approval procedures are becoming increasingly complex and time-consuming. This is where augmented reality (AR) comes into play. By integrating AR into the wind turbine construction process, approval procedures can be sped up and digitalised. I will show how this works in my blog post.

Vehicle-to-grid – the Holy Grail of storage solutions?
Storing electricity remains one of the key challenges of the energy transition. But which solution is the best? There a number of concepts out there, such as vehicle-to-home, vehicle-to-load and vehicle-to-grid. In our blog post, we will explain what this is all about and which solution is the best.

More than just a contract – power purchase agreements as a driver for innovation
While electricity prices on the stock market are subject to ever greater fluctuations these days, off-market contracts, known as power purchase agreements, can provide a solution. These agreements can not only provide protection against volatile prices, but also boost the expansion of renewable power plants. You will learn exactly what this is all about in this blog post.

Grid fees for gas – quo vadis?
In this blog post, I will first present the system of grid charges for electricity and gas grid operators in Germany and the influence that grid fees have on the price of gas for household customers. I will then explain why I believe that grid fees (and thus also the gas price) will rise. Finally, I will offer a prediction of what a financial relief package can and cannot provide and what consequences consumers and grid operators should take away from this.

Key performance indicators and dashboards are a key internal management tool for revenue optimisation for grid operators
Reports and key performance indicators (KPIs) create transparency that is of great use for many departments at a company. Using dashboards is recommended since they are a cost-effective tool for grid operators in view of the limited budgets available to them. In our blog post, we will be focusing on dashboards that provide grid operators with business and financial KPIs.

Mobility: Getting ready for 2050
Climate change, digitalisation and crises are forcing the hands of companies, organisations and governments. The EU Commission has set itself the goal of being climate neutral by 2050. There is not much time left and it is a tricky job. Inertia in the systems make change difficult. So what needs to be done to achieve these goals? Industries such as the energy and automotive industries play an important role. We need to realise a transition in the power, heat and transport sectors; and sector coupling and electrification are two relevant trends. We will look at mobility and, in particular, electromobility in this blog post.

Grid and analytics – data innovations and data use case analytics for electricity distribution grid operators to speed up the energy transition
Data innovations and data analytics use cases are an issue in the energy industry. Grid operators are sitting on mountains of unused data, meaning they are unable to properly exploit synergy effects and efficiency potentials. This blog post will explain how fully integrated processes, systems and data can help speed up the energy transition.

Integrating e-vehicles and utilising their flexibility in a virtual power plant
New sales records for e-vehicles are set every year. But how can their load profile be coordinated in a way that is viable or even integrated to serve the grid? In this blog post, we will present the potentials of integrating e-vehicles into virtual power plants.
