When Energy Systems Work Together

Solar power, energy storage, e-mobility: Only when decentralized systems work together digitally can companies realize their full potential.

Many companies today generate some of their own energy. What starts with a photovoltaic system quickly evolves into an energy system with storage, charging stations, or additional buildings. Energy isn’t automatically generated when it’s needed. Solar power is generated primarily during the day, while consumption follows the company’s operational schedules. Surplus power is fed into the grid, while electricity must be purchased at other times. Storage systems can balance out these differences. To do so, the systems must communicate with one another.

We need to turn a large amount of data into a comprehensive picture

Meters, storage systems, and consumption points often operate on different systems. Primeo Energie digitally connects these systems and analyzes production, storage, and consumption as a unified whole. This reveals where energy flows can be optimized. For companies with multiple locations, billing is another key consideration. Electricity, heat, gas, and water generate numerous meter readings and bills. With Multi Energy Billing, Primeo Energie consolidates this data and billing centrally. This gives companies a cross-location overview of consumption and costs. Locally generated electricity can also be shared. For ZEVs, virtual ZEVs, and local electricity cooperatives, Primeo Energie supports the technical and administrative processes. Depending on the model, this includes metering, data provision, and billing. This allows multiple buildings or consumption points to be integrated into a unified energy strategy.

Flexibility Is Becoming an Economic Factor

This interaction becomes particularly interesting with flexible systems. A battery storage system can store solar power for later use while simultaneously responding to market prices. With equalio, Primeo Energie bundles flexible systems into a Flexpool and markets their flexibility on the energy markets. The most suitable solution depends on the location. Load profile, production, storage capacity, grid usage, and operational requirements must all align. The greatest potential for impact therefore lies in the interaction of the entire energy system.
