Instead of several hundred large-scale power stations, millions of large and small wind power and solar installations will be the heart of our energy supply in the future. At the same time, as e-mobility and electrical heating is booming, the number of consumers is on the rise. But a stable power system will depend on the different systems working together like a swarm of bees. State-of-the-art software combined with artificial intelligence take over the coordination and control of generation and consumption via the smart grid up to the end consumer. In this session, you will learn how monitoring and energy management systems help balance the energy system and boosting efficiency.

Off-grid solar systems are often the least expensive option for rural electrification. Solar home systems can power individual households, while mini-grids can supply entire villages. Each comes with its own advantages, disadvantages, and challenges. The aim of this session is to explore challenges as well as success stories. It takes well-functioning components such as battery systems, charge management and inverters to make projects successful. Proper system sizing, maintenance and repair management, as well as a robust financial concept are also necessary. If one of these elements is missing, the electrification will not be sustainable. This session will focus on the aspects mentioned above. The speakers will present successful and unsuccessful approaches and discuss what can be learned from them.
