- Aspern Smart City Research (“ASCR”) commissions Siemens to roll out new
low-voltage software, LV Insights® X, to aspern Seestadt in Vienna
- LV Insights® X, part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, will enable ASCR to
create a digital twin of its distribution grid, enabling flexible network
management
- The new software could reduce power outages by 30 percent
Siemens continues to enable its customers globally to accelerate the energy transition, most
recently through the implementation of its low-voltage software to Aspern Smart City
Research (“ASCR”) in Vienna. Using Siemens’ next generation grid management software,
LV Insights® X, ASCR will be able to visualize the entire low-voltage network of aspern
Seestadt, a part of Vienna. aspern Seestadt is one of Europe's largest urban development
projects. With a digital twin, ASCR can identify critical segments, increase the usable
capacity of its grid, and integrate more renewable energy without additional grid expansion,
supporting their decarbonization efforts.
