Siemens and EnergyHub join forces for next generation DER management
Accelerated DER growth to challenge state-of-the-art grid management
Open and modular approach will improve DER flexibility
EnergyHub is a leading provider of grid-edge flexibility with nearly 1 million DERs under management
Siemens brings extensive power grid expertise, global footprint to partnership
Cooperation based on complementary portfolio elements, supports transition to distributed grid for net zero world
Siemens has partnered with EnergyHub to expand
its ecosystem of partners for its grid software business. EnergyHub provides a top-tier grid-edge management solution, which
combines its DERMS platform with turnkey program management
to enable utilities to scale grid-edge flexibility. EnergyHub controls all classes of DERs including thermostats, electric vehicles, energy
storage, and solar inverters. The company works with over 60 North American
utilities to manage more than 1.3 GW of flexible capacity. Siemens is a leading
provider of grid planning, operations and maintenance software and brings
extensive power systems and grid control domain expertise to the
partnership.

Siemens and EnergyHub will interface their complementary solutions to empower utilities to move towards a holistic and scalable end-to-end next generation DER management solution. This means utilities will have better DER visibility, forecasting, and management, which will enable them to better plan, operate and maintain an increasingly DER-centric grid in the future by breaking down silos across utilities.
The companies will interface

and scalable end-to-end next generation DER management solution. This means
utilities will have better DER visibility, forecasting, and management, which
will enable them to better plan, operate and maintain an increasingly
DER-centric grid in the future by breaking down silos across utilities.
“Utilities have to re-think how to manage power grids
because DERs will continue to grow significantly over the next decade. Knowing
about DER contributions to our power grids is very important to shift loads to
periods when there is less stress on the grid. Siemens and EnergyHub will be
strategically cooperating on complementary portfolio elements for a next
generation DER management by combining Siemens’ network expertise with
EnergyHub’s proven grid-edge capabilities. This partnership will enable
utilities to reach net-zero by leveraging DERs as a non-wire alternative
solution such as investments in hardware. Ultimately, this will enable
utilities to unlock unprecedented levels of DER flexibility and resilience of
the power grid,” said Sabine Erlinghagen, CEO of Grid Software at Siemens.
“It is impossible to decarbonize electricity without
grid-edge flexibility to complement the growing mix of renewable generation.
Now that our grid-edge programs are gigawatt-scale resources, it is critical
that they interconnect deeply with core utility operating systems. This
partnership with Siemens—a global leader in electricity-industry software—will
enable grid-edge resources to transform the utility enterprise in a way that is
win-win for utilities and their customers,” said Seth Frader-Thompson, President
of EnergyHub.
Siemens is a leading company for software for power
grids. About 70 percent of the world’s electricity consumption or 16,000
terawatt hours each year already flows through infrastructure simulated by
Siemens’ grid software. Today, 1,300 control center systems – that operate and
control grids – based on Siemens’ software are in operation worldwide, keeping
the lights on for hundreds of millions of people.
The Siemens Grid Software Suite is
part of Siemens Xcelerator, an open digital business platform designed to
accelerate the digital transformation and value creation across industries,
transportation, grids and buildings. An important aspect of this strategy is an
ecosystem of partners with complementary portfolios.
Siemens Smart Infrastructure (SI) is shaping the market for intelligent, adaptive infrastructure for today and the future. It addresses the pressing challenges of urbanization and climate change by connecting energy systems, buildings and industries. SI provides customers with a comprehensive end-to-end portfolio from a single source – with products, systems, solutions and services from the point of power generation all the way to consumption. With an increasingly digitalized ecosystem, it helps customers thrive and communities progress while contributing toward protecting the planet. Siemens Smart Infrastructure has its global headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. As of September 30, 2022, the business had around 72,700 employees worldwide.
Siemens AG (Berlin and Munich) is a technology company focused on industry, infrastructure, transport, and healthcare. From more resource-efficient factories, resilient supply chains, and smarter buildings and grids, to cleaner and more comfortable transportation as well as advanced healthcare, the company creates technology with purpose adding real value for customers. By combining the real and the digital worlds, Siemens empowers its customers to transform their industries and markets, helping them to transform the everyday for billions of people. Siemens also owns a majority stake in the publicly listed company Siemens Healthineers, a globally leading medical technology provider shaping the future of healthcare. In addition, Siemens holds a minority stake in Siemens Energy, a global leader in the transmission and generation of electrical power.
In fiscal 2022, which ended on September 30, 2022, the Siemens Group generated revenue of €72.0 billion and net income of €4.4 billion. As of September 30, 2022, the company had around 311,000 employees worldwide. Further information is available on the Internet at www.siemens.com.
