Towards the future | Securing supply

Stadtwerke Bad Wildbad is also observing the increase in e-mobility in the country and discussing the challenges that the energy, mobility and heating transition will pose for grid operators. What they did not have an answer to until now was the question of actual grid utilization and what effects an increasing number of e-vehicles, heat pumps and PV systems will have. The impetus for the project came from a meeting with managing directors of other grid operators in Baden-Württemberg. During the exchange, Peter Buhl, Managing Director of Stadtwerke Bad Wildbad GmbH & Co. KG, learned about the SMIGHT solution and how other municipal utilities are already using it in their distribution grids.

PV feed-in
creates imbalance

The SMIGHT measurement data from the low voltage is graphically processed and available to the grid operator at any time via a secure web portal. This gives Stadtwerke Bad Wildbad a good overview of the status of its grid. And if – as in this example – the threshold and fuse value is exceeded due to too much PV feed-in, the employees can react quickly.

The data we receive from 15 selected transformer stations gives us more security. We now have a very good insight into our grid, can recognize changes at an early stage and react accordingly.

Peter Buhl Managing Director Stadtwerke Bad Wildbad

We do not want to take any unnecessary risks and want to maintain the high level of supply security we have enjoyed to date. That is why we are already using SMIGHT Grid in this early phase of the energy transition to digitalize our grid and collect meaningful data.

Outlook& Conclusion

logo_final2

Smart electricity grid sensors from SMIGHT are now continuously collecting data in the local distribution grid of the spa town of Bad Wildbad. 15 of the 85 local grid stations are equipped with sensors. The measurements show that the load in the grid is currently still within the normal range. The municipal utilities can detect changes in the grid at an early stage and react accordingly.
