Economic sustainability is fundamental to the supply of electrical energy. The German Energy Act (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz) and the associated regulations clearly stipulate that the supply of electrical energy must be efficient and reasonably priced, among other requirements (Bundesregierung 04.01.2023). Obviously, the interest in high economic via...

The sustainability of manufacturing processes can be monitored by various key performance indicators and usually has a positive impact on the operating result. There are thus direct incentives to maximize efficiency and sustainability. The situation is different for the transmission of electrical energy. Energy transmission and distribution are gen...

The Energiewende with the decarbonization of the energy system poses major challenges. In addition to the mere provision of renewable energy, transmission and distribution is a demanding task. The electrification of all energy sectors would make this task much more difficult. The conversion of mobility to electric vehicles with appropriate charging...

The use of hydrogen fuel cells can contribute to reducing of emissions that are harmful to both the climate and health supporting thus the ecological sustainability of electrical energy supply. Additionally, applying this innovative technology can assist in using renewable electrical energy more efficiently and are new kind of demand and generation...

The supply of electrical energy is of importance for the value creation of most industrialized nations. Ultimately, electrical energy is able to provide the appropriate useful energy at the point of need with virtually no emissions. This aspect plays a greater role today than ever before. When using electrical energy as a clean and sustainable ener...

Industrial parks are the backbone of every developed industry. They exist in various forms, differing in the composition of resident companies, their size and their underlying energy infrastructure. In the ERDF-funded research project "GRIDS-Green Energy for Industrial Networks" the potentials and improvement possibilities of innovative energy supp...

Current regulations define that grid operators have the obligation to maintain Power Quality, but this effort has not yet been offset by revenues. This challenge can be met by liberating the provision of Power Quality from the grid operators' responsibilities as a result of unbundling. In addition to the design of the market, the question arises wh...

The Green Energy Parks guide is one of the results from the EFRE funded research project GRIDS - Green Energies for Industrial Alliances. The document provides a semi-structured approach to planning greener energy supply and provision concepts for industrial alliances (industrial alliances are primarily understood to be commercial and industrial pa...

The supply of electrical energy is a fundamental pillar for the economy of industrial nations. Therefore, a stable supply of electrical energy is extremely important for the national economies. Power quality forms an elementary basis of this reliability [1]. A prominent example of a power quality standard is DIN EN 50160, the standard defines expli...

Dieser Beitrag beschreibt ein Vorgehen, um verschiedene Energiekonzepte in mittelständischen Gewerbegebieten zu generieren und diese mithilfe von Simulationen zu validieren und zu bewerten. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der Kooperation der ansässigen Unternehmen.

The present study aims to investigate user attitudes and behaviour when users interact with a corporate multimodal mobility sharing system, consisting of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), pedelecs (i.e. electric bicycles) and public transport. We analysed participants’ attitudes towards BEVs, pedelecs, public transport, and the underlying service t...

Im Projekt GRIDS – Grüne Energie in industriellen Verbünden werden die Potentiale und Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten innovativer Energieversorgungskonzepte in Gewerbe- und Industrieparks untersucht. Für die Planung neuer (Greenfield) sowie den Aus- und Umbau bereits bestehender Gewerbeparks (Brownfield) werden Leitfäden zur Planung der Energiekonzepte...
