Siemens and Esri partner to bring grid planning and operation to a new level
The
news follows a recent launch of Siemens’ Grid Software Suite, an open,
interoperable suite of world-class software that creates a holistic digital
twin to plan, operate and maintain power grids. The suite is part of Siemens’ Xcelerator,
an open digital business platform to accelerate digital transformation and
value creation. Setting up an ecosystem of partners with complementary products
is a core element of Siemens Xcelerator, which enables
digital transformation easier, faster and at scale.
“With the
strategic partnership, Siemens and Esri will jointly innovate in the grid
software space by bringing together the best of our two worlds,” said Sabine
Erlinghagen, CEO Grid Software at Siemens Smart Infrastructure. “Esri will be
part of an ecosystem of equally strong partners across the energy industry,
which can lead the change to shape the grids of the future to a 100 percent
renewable world.“
Jeff Rashid, Global Director for Infrastructure at Esri, said: “Combining a major source
of data such as GIS with Siemens’ grid modeling and simulation software will significantly elevate the quality
of grid models for utilities. We are working on streamlining the data transfer
between our GIS and the Siemens software resulting in a much higher
performing system, a much more reliable data exchange between systems and a
reduction in overall cost for data management.”
As the rapid growth in DERs and eMobility
charging infrastructure fundamentally transforms the energy system, the
cooperation between Siemens and Esri will support Transmission System Operators
(TSOs) and Distribution System Operators (DSOs) find answers to increasing challenges
across their entire geographic power networks.
