"Siemens Tackles Future-Proof EV Charging Challenges with Vanguard Properties in Lisbon's Infinity Building Project"

Siemens recently participated in a discussion panel to highlight the crucial role of customer stories in shaping their approach toward future buildings, particularly focusing on an innovative project with Vanguard Properties. This high-end luxury building in Lisbon posed significant challenges due to outdated assumptions and limited power capacity for its extensive EV charging infrastructure. Siemens addressed these issues by implementing a comprehensive solution involving 200 VersaCharge units and the SICAM A8000-based smart dynamic load manager, integrated seamlessly into the existing infrastructure. This system enabled real-time local control and efficient energy management, accommodating differing constraints across six groups of chargers. The data collected was shared with an IoT supervision system that provided transparent dashboards showcasing energy consumption, available power, grid constraints, and charger status—crucial for both users and maintenance teams. The initiative also emphasized broader goals like integrating renewable energy sources into grids while ensuring sustainability and flexibility. By participating in demand response programs using open customizable systems, Siemens demonstrated preparedness for evolving regulations. The successful deployment underscored how strategic EV charging solutions can significantly contribute to grid stability and sustainable energy use globally. In conclusion, Siemens envisions future-proof buildings—exemplified by the "Infinity" concept—that integrate advanced digital solutions to meet modern electrical grid demands efficiently.

Photovoltaic prices have fallen continuously in recent years - a trend that should translate into a growing market for off-grid solutions. Declining costs are crucial for rural electrification in particular, making sustainable energy supply economically viable in remote regions. However, so far many of these price advantages have not yet reached the people that need them most. Do existing framework conditions to foster rural electrification still work in this new market reality? Which measures are needed to ensure that cost reductions reach our target group? This session discusses strategies for improving the availability of low-cost off-grid solutions, financing and innovative business models. A look at successful practical examples shows which political, economic and technological levers need to be pulled to make off-grid PV accessible on a large scale.
