3 Goal: climate protection We don t inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children. 3

4 Goal: Increase of efficiency Savings Renewables German: Effizienzsteigerung Einsparungen Erneuerbare Energien 4

5 Change: If I had ask people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses. Henry Ford ( ) A deterrent example of ignoring the change. Agfa; Brockhaus; Kodak, Nokia,. Source: Museum for Communication Berlin 5

6 Change: Yesterday Today and and tomorrow: today : decentralized and fossil and alternative / regenerative Regional generation Controllable loads Local products New necessities 6

7 Change: The change from a central backbone to a powerweb is a requirement for the supply based on renewable energy YESTERDAY Today TOMORROW 7

8 Challenge: This nut has to be cracked 8

9 Challenge: To manage a proper context Give responsibilities to the right positions Manage the acceptance Strengthen social community Creation and collaboration of local markets Manage the market incentives for new technologies 9

10 Challenge: Consumption Energy produce feed in the grid The right incentives and basic conditions Costumer generation Energy use from the grid are the baseline of a working system and competition 1. Expansion of renewable energy plants 2. Storage integration in relevant grid segments 3. Intelligent network and regulation energy systems 4. Establishment of new markets/ cutting the bureaucratic obstacles 10

11 Speicher Our response: Extension of renewable energies Gas as a perfect energy source and storage Network Energy storage Decentralized intelligent process control technology Automation Improvement of the energy efficiency Decentralized self-control Managing the market models and legal framework

12 Our response: Subsidiaries of SWW 2018 Projects of SWW Thermal power plant and local heating Breitenbrunn Thermal power plant and local heating Schönbrunn 2010 Sun Biomass Wind Battery Storage 12

13 Challenge: An innovative topic comes along with challenges Sound emission Fire protection requirements Political pressure Public interest Close cooperation and collaboration Common understanding and trust Involvement across all levels 13

14 Our response: Biomass thermal power plant Holenbrunn Satellite power plant with local heat supply grid Breitenbrunn Schönbrunn Neusorg solar cell panel 80 kwp power The Energy production is as the demand Satellite power plantschönbrunn 14

15 Our response: Based on software Spectrum Power TM 5 SCADA system it is possible to shift and shape loads using residential electrical heaters 15

16 House of the Energy Future Our response: Siemens and SWW Wunsiedel Showroom to Energy Future siemens.de/des 16

17 Summary: Moving safely in the awareness of insecurity it s about the guarantee of basic energy supply. 17

18 Summary: Who wants to survive has to change 18

19 the technical challenge of a safe energy supply, depends on reliability in a proper form, in the desired place, at the right time! 19
