Why a software-led approach to increase grid capacity is critical
Siemens Grid Software CEO, Sabine Erlinghagen, highlights the growing challenge of grid capacity due to the electrification of various sectors and the proliferation of distributed energy resources.
In an exclusive interview, Sabine emphasises the need for a software-led approach to increasing grid capacity and operating grids closer to their limits, suggesting that managing this complexity and critical infrastructure requires AI-assisted processes – autonomous grid management – integrating the real and digital worlds to optimise grid performance.
Sabine introduces the concept of autonomous grid management by focusing on understanding grid behaviour under stress and optimisation.
Siemens ‘Gridscale X‘, is presented as a vision for autonomous grid management, integrating real and digital worlds in an intuitive manner.
This solution embodies the promise of moving to autonomous grid management by connecting the real and digital worlds in an intuitive and easy-to-use way for customers.
