Siemens launches Gridscale X™, paving the way for autonomous grid management
With Gridscale X, Siemens provides modular software to support utilities to tackle their most
pressing challenges related to the energy transition. Gridscale X makes it possible to scale
grid capacity fast, handle the complexity of DERs and increase grid flexibility with software
that is easy to deploy and fast to integrate into existing IT and OT landscapes. This
represents a new era of grid management and adds increased value to new and existing
customers through planning, operations, and maintenance.
“Grid requirements are changing tremendously, driven by a seven-fold increase in distributed
energy resources, putting enormous pressure on power utilities. Gridscale X enables grid
operators to rethink grid management, increase capacity fast, and leverage distributed
energy resources to improve customer satisfaction. It ultimately empowers utilities to reach
net zero, while keeping their grids stable and reliable,” said Sabine Erlinghagen, CEO
Siemens Grid Software.
Accelerating the energy transition through Siemens Xcelerator
As a part of Siemens Xcelerator, Gridscale X software is developed with the core design
principles of interoperability, flexibility, openness, availability as a service, and with the
highest level of cybersecurity. This means that Gridscale X can meet and adapt to the
evolving needs of the industry, complemented by Siemens Xcelerator’s open partner
ecosystem. Siemens Xcelerator is an open digital business platform to accelerate digital
transformation and value creation.
Gridscale X: A new era of grid management with an extensive software offering
Two new Gridscale X software products were announced this week at the Siemens
Grid Software Summit and Distributech event in Orlando, USA. Building on an already extensive
grid software portfolio,
Gridscale X DER Insights and Gridscale X Network Model Manager
will enable power utilities to gain visibility over their grid and create a centralized network
model. DER Insights enables utilities to protect critical infrastructure by gaining better
insights into what is happening behind the meter, and how these resources impact grid
equipment. Meanwhile, Network Model Manager is a consistent network model management
app and data repository that supports operators with more efficient grid planning,
development, and operations.
