Experts Discuss Critical Role of Energy Management Systems in Tackling Electricity Demand and Supply Imbalance Amidst Growing Renewable Energy Relevance

Die Diskussion behandelt das wachsende Potenzial der Solarbranche und ihre erwartete Dominanz gegenüber der Automobilindustrie bis 2030. André Hänel von der KNX Association leitet die Sitzung, in der er die Bedeutung des Energiemanagements im Kontext des Klimawandels und der Energiewende hervorhebt. Er erklärt, dass ein Ungleichgewicht zwischen Energiebedarf und -produktion besteht—insbesondere bei elektrischer Energie—was den Einsatz von Energiemanagementsystemen erforderlich macht. Diese Systeme sind essentiell, um sicherzustellen, dass verfügbare Energie effizient genutzt wird. Hänel betont die Relevanz dieser Thematik für Haushalte und Familienhomes sowie deren Rolle beim Lösen aktueller Energieprobleme. Nach jeder Präsentation gibt es eine Fragerunde mit dem Publikum. Der erste Referent Bart van Remortel, Solutions and Business Manager bei SMA, wird über Möglichkeiten des Energiemanagements sprechen und praktische Einblicke in sein System geben sollen.

Europe's rapid solar expansion is pushing power grids to their limits. Grid operators across the continent are now turning to co-located solar-plus-storage systems to stabilize networks, absorb excess generation and unlock new connection capacity. These projects mark a shift from asset-centric storage design to grid-integrated operation and market-based procurement. This session highlights recent 2026 initiatives that show how integrated solar-plus-storage assets can reinforce the grid by providing congestion relief, voltage and inertia support and firm capacity, thereby enabling higher renewable penetration and broader market participation. Speakers will share lessons from real-world projects demonstrating how close coordination between grid operators, developers and flexibility providers transforms solar-plus-storage systems from a balancing resource into essential grid infrastructure.
