Integration

We integrate the Flexibility Plant as a Virtual Power Plant into your processes and efficiently connect your IT infrastructure, ensuring seamless collaboration.

Initially, Energiekoppler provides you with your own instance of the Flexibility Plant as an SaaS solution, granting you exclusive and secure access to the aggregator. We implement data exchange between your IT systems (e.g., the Virtual Power Plant) using our first-class REST API or the classic remote control protocol IEC 60870-5-104. The integration of the Flexibility Plant into closed user groups is also possible. Need a different interface? We will integrate it for you!

We offer various ways to connect energy systems, covering the entire state-of-the-art technology spectrum.

  1. Physical connection via swarmBOX for cross-market optimization or behind-the-meter marketing
  2. Remote control access to locally installed park controllers or remote control technology via various VPN technologies.

For connecting energy systems, various protocols and device specifications are available. The expansion of supported devices is ongoing and completely free of charge for you.

Energiekoppler provides you with versatile access routes to the Flexibility Plant aggregator. With the REST API, you can retrieve live data, demand, feed-in, and flexibility forecasts, view availability information, and control your energy plants. Alternatively, the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol enables seamless integration into existing Virtual Power Plants. You can integrate both live data and forecasts directly into your trading systems or Virtual Power Plants using the REST API. If needed, we will also integrate your existing interfaces effortlessly.

Additionally, you have access to the user-friendly interface of the Flexibility Plant, which gives you a comprehensive overview of the operational status of your energy systems. With various authorization profiles, user access rights can be individually managed.

We provide the IT infrastructure necessary for the Flexibility Plant! The Flexibility Plant will operate redundantly and exclusively on data centers located in Germany. Various VPN technologies, such as OpenVPN or IPsec, are used for connecting to Virtual Power Plants or energy systems.

Collaboration

The primary goal of our collaboration is the creation of clear responsibilities. What does that look like for us? We gladly take on your responsibilities in relation to the technical connection of energy systems and the operation of the Flexibility Plant.

To generate revenue potential and avoid risks, the onboarding of energy systems must happen promptly. Once you notify us of the systems to be connected, we work with the project developer, reserve provider, or remote control service provider to find the most cost-effective and robust connection solution. Using our IT tools, we always have an overview of your plant connections and can keep you informed of the current status in a transparent manner.

If the connection concept requires the installation of local remote control technology, we handle the installation and commissioning. We install the swarmBOX as a white-label solution on location at the energy systems, ensuring data collection and remote control. Alternatively, installation can also be carried out by the systems operator or partners.

The smooth operation of the Flexibility Plant and each individual connection around the clock is essential for optimal marketing of flexible energy systems. With Energiekoppler's 24/7 support, disruptions are quickly detected and resolved.

Are flexible energy systems underperforming? With Energiekoppler, you have a competent partner to analyze system operations, identify weaknesses, and resolve them with the manufacturer, project developer, and operator.

With Energiekoppler, you benefit from the fact that your wishes for optimizing processes and marketing success are considered in product development.

Additionally, we constantly implement new protocols and device specifications to expand the supported device specifications—at no cost to you.
