The energy transition places high demands on the stability of the electricity grid. Bottlenecks arise due to increasing consumption and fluctuating feed in from pv-systems. An important measure, therefore, is the digital control of consumption and generation systems within the smart grid. However, many private buildings are still equipped with analogue technology and cannot be connected directly. The EEBUS Relay Converter provides a solution by making analogue systems accessible for smart grid communication. This enables older systems to be controlled and to contribute to grid stability without the need for major structural modifications.
The Jury‘s Statement
A key obstacle to a stable energy system lies in the lack of a common communication framework between different systems. The EEBUS relay converter overcomes this barrier by integrating analogue systems into the digital smart grid environment, thereby enabling the coordinated control of consumption and generation units. As a result, isolated individual decisions are transformed into harmonised interaction, which reduces grid bottlenecks and unlocks new flexibilities. What is particularly compelling is that this solution does not replace existing infrastructure, but intelligently extends it, creating an open platform that promotes innovation and makes the energy transition step by step safer, more efficient and more sustainable.
