Virtual Power Plants

SE²DIRECTOR

Superior energy optimization is a matter for the director

The networking of production and production in a virtual power plant enables energy providers and industrial companies to act in the global energy market. Using forecast-based generation, load and storage management, the targeted optimization of existing flexibilities is carried out. Your own energy costs can be made significantly more economical - without having to build your own infrastructure.

The higher-level control are handled by the SE²DIRECTOR

The SE²DIRECTOR is based on the idea of a server-based, universally applicable controller for virtual power plants. It centrally aggregates small and large energy production or energy intensive production plants. Overall, the timetables of all plants, for example connected with the SE²OPTIMZER or SE²BOX, in the group for energy trading are consolidated centrally and the system-wide optimization of the entire investment pool is regulated.

Advantages AVAT SE²DIRECTOR

  • Central control system for pooling several plants
  • Cost & revenue optimization with grid-beneficial operation
  • Integration of electricity price and weather data forecasts
  • Aggregated timetable management in a network
  • CO2 reduction in the intelligently networked energy system

A further advantage: In the future, in addition to the current standard marketing of quantities of electricity on the electricity exchange, there will also be a marketplace for electricity trading among the participants of the virtual power plant without intermediaries.

Our experience has shown that the entry into the price-oriented production, load and storage management is already paying for plants of medium power, such as for cogeneration plants from 200 kW electrical power. In principle, flexibly operable energy production plants and energy-intensive production plants are ideally suited for application optimization and marketing. To use the slumbering reserves proven solutions will be available.

 


Plant optimization via VPP

So whether you want to operate a virtual power plant yourself and which mix of plants you then connect with the SE²DIRECTOR, or in the future you will become part of a smart network with the artificially intelligent SE²OPTIMIZER and your plant or simply "only" with the SE²BOX your production unit to connect to the net - does not matter. Project-specific, individually and with a maximum proportion of standardized technology and software, everything is already ready for the more cost-efficient use of the systems.

This makes our solutions stable, reliable and user-friendly. The homogeneous communication infrastructure, coordinated interfaces and an uniform control concept ensure highly efficient and cost-effective operation in energy networks.

We will demonstrate the technically and economically useful optimization potential to you, suggest suitable marketing options, and ensure the successful technical implementation – with a coherent concept and an economical solution.
