Smart Grids for the Energy Market

Instead of merely distributing energy, the interplay between decentralized producers and consumers
must be intelligently coordinated. This requires sophisticated digitalization strategies and business models.

High-tech control systems and IT form the basis for digitalizing the energy system: Controllers coordinate the decentralized systems, ensure easy and secure communication in the smart grid and store measurement data that's protected against cyberattacks in the cloud.
WAGO offers the right solutions and concepts today for every step of the process.

Smart Grids: More Communication in Energy Grids

An energy consumer needs communication, both between the individual stakeholders and interest groups as well as in technical terms: To get a grip on the increasing decentralization and fluctuation of power generation, the individual components of the energy system must be linked to each other in smart grids across sectors. The start is in the electricity sector: Modern automation technology, integrated into decentralized suppliers, intelligent distribution substations and virtual power plants optimizes control of the distribution grid. Modernizing the gas and heat grid is the next step, and WAGO provides the necessary controllers. Advantages of WAGO's solution:

Reliable energy grid measurement, control and regulation
Process automation, load management
Secure and economical access to remote systems
Broad product portfolio
Proven, rugged products
All relevant worldwide approvals
Maximum signal level and bus protocol flexibility
Easy configuration
Cybersecurity: PFC100/PFC200 controllers comply with current IT security regulations for grid operators and can be hardened as described in the BDEW white paper.
Cloud connectivity: Connection to the cloud thanks to an MQTT software upgrade

Digital Energy Trade

The blockchain, a digital account book, enables direct transactions between generators and consumers. WAGO explains exactly how this works and what it may mean for the future.

Integrated Energy: Electricity, Heat and Transmission Grow Together

With decentralization and digitization of the electricity sector, heat and mobility have become priorities for utility providers. The energy transition only works with storage systems. In contrast to the electrical grid, the heat and gas networks offer greater capacities. For that reason, power-to-heat and power-to-gas systems are becoming more important. They can use excess green electricity to produce heat, along with storable hydrogen and methane. WAGO already supplies manufacturers of such systems. At the same time, we support suppliers in modernizing their heat and gas networks, a task made necessary by energy sector linkage and the resultant increasing complexity of energy flows. And the industry-proven WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM serves as the automation platform. Advantages of WAGO's solution:

Automation solutions
Maximum flexibility
Direct applications in Ex Zone 2
Direct wiring of intrinsically safe signals from Ex zones to intrinsically safe Ex i modules
Integrated IEC 60870, IEC 61850 and DNP 3.0 telecontrol protocols
PLC Functionality
Webserver
