The Age of Electricity Is Here — Greater Observability, Granularity and Event-Driven Insight are Required

..   The IEA Electricity 2026 report highlights a defining trend: global electricity demand is set to grow rapidly through 2030 as electrification accelerates across industry, transport and buildings — with data centres, EV fleets and heat pumps all playing a role. At the same time, renewable generation is [...]

Power Quality as an Early-Warning System for Grid Instability

..   The latest ENTSO-E technical report on instability detection in power-electronics-dominated systems delivers a clear message: ➡️ As power systems become increasingly converter-based, traditional monitoring is no longer sufficient. Modern instabilities are faster, more complex, and often invisible to basic RMS measurements. Harmonic resonance, control-loop interactions, and phase-angle [...]

Europe just crossed a historic electricity milestone — and it changes how energy must be managed at site level.

..   For the first time, wind and solar generate more electricity in the EU than fossil fuels, according to Ember. This is a major achievement. It is also a structural shift in how electricity behaves. The energy transition is happening at grid level — but it will be [...]

Building Energy Awareness and Energy Culture: How Technology and People Work Together

..   Energy efficiency is often discussed in terms of technology, automation, and software platforms. However, real and sustained energy savings depend just as much on people as on systems.This is where energy awareness and energy culture become decisive factors. Energy culture refers to the collective behaviors, habits, and [...]

Power Plant Controller (PPC) / Central Controller (CCI) – Libra CCI UPS: The Complete Plug-and-Play Solution to Address the New Obligations of ARERA Resolution 385/2025 and 564/2025

..   On August 5, 2025, ARERA published Delibera 385/2025/R/EEL, introducing new requirements for operators of distributed generation plants (photovoltaic and wind).Under this resolution, all existing and new photovoltaic and wind plants with a nominal power of 100 kW or greater connected to the medium-voltage grid must be equipped [...]

Electrex – Observability & Data Aggregation: The Real Foundation of Grid Flexibility

..   As we move toward higher shares of renewables, flexibility becomes essential—but flexibility cannot exist without deep, continuous, and reliable observability. The recent ENTSO-E report makes this clear: ➡️ Distributed assets cannot contribute to flexibility if system operators lack real-time visibility into their behaviour. ➡️ Data remains fragmented [...]

Electrex – Flexibility From Renewables: Why Traditional Monitoring Is No Longer Enough

..   The latest ENTSO-E report on “Flexibility from Renewable Energy Sources (RES)” highlights a critical issue for Europe’s energy transition: ➡️ Legacy monitoring systems alone are no longer adequate. As renewable penetration grows, grids need far more than data collection. They require real-time controllability, automation, and fast-response capabilities [...]

Electrex – Maximising Efficiency in Your Compressed Air System ⚡

..   Delivering compressed air in an industrial environment is no small feat — it's a major cost centre. According to industry insights, energy consumption alone can account for 60-90% of the total lifetime cost of a compressed air system. That’s why Electrex provides complete solutions to help you [...]

Servitization: The New Path to Competitiveness — Empowered by Electrex

..   Across industries, manufacturers and integrators are rethinking their business models. It’s no longer enough to deliver a great product — customers now expect intelligence, connectivity, and ongoing value. This evolution is called servitization: turning traditional products into smart, service-oriented solutions that create long-term relationships, recurring revenues, and [...]

Why Europe is Moving from Hourly to 15-Minute Energy Intervals

..   The European power sector is moving from hourly to 15-minute trading intervals. Why? Because renewables like PV and wind can change dramatically in just a few minutes. Reasons for the Change Integration of renewables Wind and solar output can change significantly within 15 minutes. A shorter MTU [...]
