When it comes to digital energy solutions, Rejler’s energy experts are at the forefront of development. Tomorrow, Tuesday 22 May, experts Claes Böös and Jonas Lundgren will explain how Rejlers is using digital twins to develop Sweden’s electricity grid and systems.
Electric Market Day is being organised by Dagens industri with the themes of digitalisation, business models and customer benefits. Head of the Energy Division, Jenny Edfast, will also attend and take part in a panel discussion entitled ‘The electricity market hub of the future - consequences and opportunities for energy companies’.
During Energy Market Day, leading industry players and innovators will assemble to discuss and share their knowledge and insights into the energy business of the future. Marc Hoffman, CEO at E.ON, and Ulla Sandborgh, Director-General at Svenska Kraftnät, are just two of the other speakers who will take part during the day. Rejlers will present its work relating to digital twins.
For those unfamiliar with the term, digital twinning is major emerging new approach to manufacturing in the age of Industry 4.0. It involves the mapping, or ‘twinning’, of a physical asset to a digital platform. Sensors on the physical asset can collect data to ensure it functions to the highest level of efficiency.
When it comes to the energy industry, with a digital twin for switchgear or grid in place, it will be possible to extract information from the system, which would otherwise require travel or safety measures. Claes Böös, energy expert and group manager at Rejlers. sees major benefits as regards both finance and the environment.
“Everything is now in place to assess the benefits that digital twins can offer in the energy system together with forward-looking installation owners. We are ready to go live,” he says.
