Support for transport providers in site planning

  • Identification of required e-bus charging points and performance profiles
  • Ageing prognoses for the traction energy storage units
  • Assessment of the technical and geographical suitability of substation locations with reference to e-bus charging point locations
  • Analysis of the substation pool’s historical load profiles
  • Compilation of annual load profiles for the combined operation of e-buses and trams
  • Dimensioning of the bus charging equipment within the substation
  • Determination of the potential for reducing network charges through passive and active peak grid load control
  • Location-specific determination of braking energy potential in trams (outfitting of measurement vehicle(s) and application of proprietary analysis routines)
  • Dimensioning of the stationary storage technology within the substation
  • Planning for extension by a bi-directional grid inverter
  • Location-specific determination of the potential for integrating regenerative energy generation facilities (e. g., photovoltaics)
  • Economic assessment of the investments according to DIN 17463
  • Support in the tendering process for integrating the stationary storage technology into the substation(s)


Support for the operation of a GUW+ system

  • Performance and peak load predictions for the substation pool
  • Battery system management for the following operation modes: peak shaving, braking energy, and blackout
  • Predictive determination of possible time slots within the operational schedule for providing frequency containment reserve FCR (four-hour products) and for trading energy units on the energy market (DayAhead/Intraday)
  • Monitoring of the battery storage system
