EFEN - Smart Grid Interface Module
The transparency of energy flow is a decisive factor for smart grids. The EFEN Smart Grid Interface allows the convenient collection of current data on site. Data is transmitted to the local power distribution station or superordinate network management system without any additional wiring effort. Thanks to their compact design, the EFEN Smart Grid Interfaces can be easily retrofitted into blank fields in the distribution cabinets.
Transparent energy fl ows are a prerequisite for the stability of smart grids. Accordingly, actual grid states must be combined in a smart manner in order to match supply and demand. This is essential in order to balance the strongly fl uctuating energy fl ows caused by volatile power sources on the one hand and consumption peaks caused by the steadily increasing number of electric vehicles drawing power for recharging on the other hand.
To allow grid operators to ensure the reliability of the distribution grid and to make cost-effi cient adjustments to the infrastructure, it is necessary to continuously measure and monitor the dynamic loads in the distribution grids. With the EFEN Smart Grid Interface Module, metering points can be implemented at strategic points in distribution grids, easily and at low costs.
