Challenges in the industry

The energy industry is undergoing profound change, particularly with regard to technological innovations, the transition to renewable energies and the need for a sustainable energy future. A holistic view of this interplay shows how strongly the various players are interconnected and what complex challenges need to be overcome. Energy suppliers and grid operators are not only confronted with new regulatory framework conditions, but also with the diverse challenges of digitalization. However, digital electricity grids are essential in order to meet the growing demand for energy in the future and ensure the sustainable use of resources. 

The biggest challenges facing the industry are

  • Grid stability and flexibility
  • Integration of renewable energies
  • Regulatory framework conditions
  • Sector coupling and system integration
  • Technological integration

For a sustainable energy supply, technical, regulatory and economic challenges must be addressed holistically. Success depends on linking these complex systems together - and making them robust, safe and efficient.

High-quality, intelligent and digital control technology for grid operators

High-availability technology makes an important contribution to grid stability and supports the grid operator in the challenge of achieving the highest possible security of supply.

PSI's energy management applications are designed for the complex network structures of energy supply. The high-performance software supports dispatchers in the control room as well as the dispatcher in operation or the technician on site. Neither the energy sector nor the voltage level play a role. The systems are in use at 

  • transmission system operators,
  • distribution system operators,
  • municipal utilities with individual divisions or in a cross-network,
  • low-voltage grid operators,
