It delivers a highly flexible, endlessly scalable and versatile solution which can be tailored to individual customer requirements. In the specific case of a microgrid, EnergetIQ calculates the optimum energy mix based on current and future weather data, prices on the electricity exchange and the customer's energy requirement.
“If you want to achieve perfect interplay in leveraging the strengths of the different technologies, and not just today, but tomorrow, next week, and beyond, then what you need isn't a fixed operating strategy but one that constantly recalculates itself automatically. That requires an over-arching, data-driven solution – in other words, the optimiser function of mtu EnergetIQ,” Jan explains.
These capabilities will be in increasing demand in the near future, as fossil fuel supply restrictions and substantial price increases drive many customers towards reconceptualising their power supply systems, alongside increased interest in CO2 reduction.
