Virtual Heat & Power • Module Status ® Network Statu- IXXAT^Energy Solutions for the Smart Grid - IXXAT SG-gateways for linking energy protocols with fieldbus and industrial Ethernet Connecting Devices'

Virtual Heat & Solve the communication challenges of the Smart Grid The IXXAT SG-gateways are designed to enable communication between energy systems and industrial automation systems. It is specifically suitable for Demand Response (networking of industrial electric loads) and Virtual Power Plants (networking of energy resources like biogas plants or combined heat and power units). IXXAT SG-gateways... are the missing link between industrial and energy networks enable easy remote control and management of electrical systems allow logging and displaying of application data and...

What is the Smart Grid? The integration of e.g. renewable energy and electric cars into a power grid imposes a radical change in the way we design and operate electric networks. The key element to migrate from dumb power networks to modern “Smart” Grids is communication technology. Former power grids were built under the assumptions that energy flows in one direction – from the power plant to the consumer, that fuel-based power generation is constant, and that the grid is centralistic. Smart Grids are quite the opposite. They are based on many distributed – partly highly volatile and...
