众所周知，随着可再生能源的发展，对于灵活性的需求日益增长。未来预测，煤炭和天然气发电厂将仅用于补偿太阳能和风力发电的不足。我们不禁要问，为何还要依靠化石燃料作为电力供应的补充呢？因为存储设备同样可以平衡可再生能源发电的产出波动并支持符合能源转型趋势的分散式方式，且既不排放环境污染，又可降低成本。这一方面源于电池和电转气系统的迅速发展，另一方面也得益于现代控制技术为通信和网络带来的突破性创新。

反过来，这也有助于实现存储设备的多次高效利用。电池不再仅仅与光伏发電相结合，用于增加太阳能供给家庭或企业的太阳能消耗。它还可用作工业存储设备、本地网络存储单元或大容量存储设备，甚至作为蓄电池组集中运行，通过存储多余电力来防止电网波动。当用电高峰突然来袭并危及电网稳定时，electricity also can provide short-time power supply. Therefore, when electric vehicles become more popular as additional electricity consumers, the value of batteries will be further highlighted.

Smart grids' versatile helper: If solar and wind energy continue to develop, technologies that actively promote flexibility need to be encouraged to balance production fluctuations caused by weather. Storage devices can tackle this task because they can both store excess current and discharge it according to needs.

Batteries and Power-to-X systems are now widely applied in numerous projects. In these projects, both can significantly increase the local self-consumption of solar energy and stabilize the grid. Moreover, thanks to modern control technology's breakthrough innovations in communication and networks as well as the resulting efficient reuse of storage devices, batteries and Power-to-X systems will play an increasingly important role in smart grids development.

In addition, Power-to-X systems also offer a more efficient choice for flexibility. The system can convert surplus energy into heat energy, hydrogen gas, or methane and store it easily within existing heating networks or natural gas networks. Because compared with power grids, these networks provide richer idle capacities.

Wanke assists storage device development: Wanke technology not only provides safe space-saving connections for batteries and Power-to-X systems but also uses remote access as a gateway for accessing power grids through them. Through these gateways various sensors on-site layers are networked; data is accessed via cloud computing platforms.

For example,

Wanke remote access handles communication between field-level components using MOD-BUS protocol digital signals such as analog signals collect all data converting them into desired communication protocols like IEC 60870-5-101/-104 or IEC 61850 then transmit data via cables.

Conversely,

Remote access allows control centers to access storage devices & related systems too.

By doing so,

data flow is protected from unauthorized access through TLS 1.2 encryption & special security connections like IPSec or OpenVPN according BDEW guidelines.

Furthermore,

Wanke connects storage equipment projects into larger flexible-controlled networks called virtual power plants.

As distributed producers increase their numbers

the supply of electricity

gas

and heat becomes increasingly complex

This results in containing interfaces from different manufacturers within a single network making it quite confusing

Using Wanke components

these communication issues are resolved since its industry-standard VHPready (Virtual Heat And Power) compliance ensures compatibility with other parts

Its function resembles translators enabling control centers & systems understand each other while integrating storage equipment into smart grids technology has been prepared
