E-Werk Lüsen Launches Pilot Project with SMIGHT and Psaier.energies

The E-Werk Lüsen Cooperative is taking new steps to make its power grid fit for the energy transition. Together with SMIGHT GmbH and the project partner Psaier.energies GmbH, the company is launching a pilot project for intelligent grid monitoring. The aim is to identify the increasing challenges arising from the expansion of renewable energies in the rural distribution grid at an early stage and to take targeted action.
As part of the project, five local network stations have been equipped with modern SMIGHT measurement technology. Over several weeks, the grid data will now be collected and evaluated in the SMIGHT IQ Cockpit. The insights gained from this will make it possible to identify critical points in the grid at an early stage and to plan investments on a solid data basis.
“We chose SMIGHT because we expect more transparency about our grid from the precise measurement data – also in comparison with the existing smart meter data. After the demonstrator, we want to use this basis to implement further targeted measures in order to ensure security of supply in the long term,” explains Valentin Kaser, Teamleader Consultant Services at Psaier.energies.
With the project, E-Werk Lüsen is strengthening its role as a pioneer for sustainable and secure energy supply in the region.
