Simulation-based feasibility study

We accompany and support Messe München GmbH in its goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2030. We are currently using our expertise and our innovative simulation methods as part of a feasibility study to identify and evaluate options for a sustainable energy supply.

Realisation

The aim of the feasibility study was to develop a cross-sectoral energy concept based on a simulative analysis of various transformation strategies. In addition to the evaluation of these concepts, a detailed transformation plan was developed. This focussed on several key topics: for the electricity supply, photovoltaic potential was determined based on allocation plans and suitable battery storage systems were designed for different PV expansion stages. In the area of heat supply, heating loads were calculated and possible environmental heat sources were analysed. In addition, the efficiency increase of ventilation systems was analysed using a test setup. For electromobility, the focus was on forecasting future charging demand profiles and their impact on the electricity grid. In addition, the cooling supply was considered by analysing the electrical consumption of chillers and evaluating the potential of reversible heat pumps and passive cooling using environmental heat.

 

Customer benefits

The simulation-based analysis provides crucial insights for identifying and realising an economically advantageous and sustainable energy solution. This creates the basis for climate neutrality by 2030.

    Digital solutions for a sustainable energy future

    We supported our customer Kaiser Lacke GmbH in making its energy technology future-proof and sustainable. A detailed overview of energy consumption was created at the main site in Nuremberg/Fürth by comprehensively digitising the energy meters. A weather forecast model calculates photovoltaic power generation in advance and enables optimised production planning. This data forms the basis for well-founded decisions to optimise the energy system, meaning that Kaiser Lacke is well equipped for future challenges in the energy sector.

    Sector-coupled hybrid power plant

    We have been advising our client NürnbergMesse GmbH on a sustainable energy supply since 2021. An innovative hybrid power plant is to be realised by 2028 as part of the REMBup research project. This will combine various CO2-neutral technologies to ensure a sustainable and efficient energy supply. The digital twin of the plant will optimise the operation of the entire system in future and enable data-based control. State-of-the-art energy forecasts using machine learning and optimisation methods will be used. The project demonstrates not only the technical, but also the economic feasibility of a climate-friendly energy supply.

    Energy optimisation of an energy-plus housing estate at system level

    The aim of the project is to holistically optimise the use of energy in an energy-plus housing estate. By intelligently coordinating the electricity, heating and cooling sectors and taking into account generation, consumption and storage technologies, the aim is to maximise energy efficiency. A particular focus is on optimising the use of grid capacities in the residential area and taking regulatory framework conditions into account. A cross-sectoral real-time simulation model of the residential area forms the basis for the analyses. The coupling with real measurement data enables the development of a digital twin that allows extensive simulations and the optimisation of algorithms even before real operation.
