Jan Lehmann Outlines Future of Energy Management Systems and Autonomous Optimization at Kiwigrid GmbH Presentation

Jan Lehmann, Vice President of Product Management at Kiwigrid GmbH, discusses the evolving role of energy management systems in future energy frameworks. Historically focused on self-consumption optimization and minimizing grid dependency, these systems now face challenges due to increased PV and wind installations. Regulatory changes emphasize integrating local optimizations with broader market dynamics through dynamic tariffs and grid restrictions. Lehmann introduces a model for autonomous energy optimization akin to levels in autonomous driving—each stage offers more sophisticated system integration but also greater complexity. At level zero, users manually adjust consumption based on APEC spot prices; however, real benefits emerge from automated processes starting at level one where assets like heat pumps are optimized systematically. Level two incorporates user-specific contracts enhancing transparency while addressing time-variable fees by April 2025. Levels three and four involve incentive-based behaviors transitioning towards direct activation flexibility via aggregators managing decentralized flexibilities within virtual power plants (VPPs). Despite complexities in balancing portfolios or disaggregating needs from an aggregator's perspective being challenging steps forward have been made toward achieving fully integrated solutions essential for sustainable futures leveraging green energies efficiently across communities globally.
