Energy Planning for Electrical Power Systems

A reliable energy supply doesn’t start with the hardware—it starts with planning. As an energy systems integrator, we handle 42technology AG the electrical engineering planning for your energy systems—from the initial analysis through implementation to a fully operational facility. Depending on the technology and project, we bring together our specialized divisions for emergency power, battery storage, combined heat and power plants, and grid protection to deliver systems ranging up to the double-digit megawatt range.

The result is well-designed, reliable system solutions that, in an emergency, do exactly what matters most: ensure an uninterrupted energy supply.

Especially when it comes to critical infrastructure, the value of careful energy planning only becomes apparent once the system is in operation: By thoroughly planning interfaces, protection strategies, and redundancies from the very beginning, you can avoid costly retrofits and ensure that the system responds reliably in the event of a failure. Our project managers and engineers will support you throughout the entire lifecycle—from the initial concept to ongoing operation.

Emergency Power and Data Centers

For data centers, hospitals, and other critical infrastructure, we design power plants and emergency power systems with a focus on maximum availability and operational reliability. A power outage must not result in operational downtime, data loss, or even a security risk. That is precisely why we design every system to take over automatically and without delay in the event of an emergency.

Engineering: Circuit diagrams and schematic diagrams; design of the fully automated emergency power and energy supply systems
Implementation: Plant layouts, requests for proposals, and control system designs—all from a single source
Benefits: maximum availability, seamless operational reliability in the event of a failure, protection against operational downtime and data loss

Battery storage

From independent energy consulting to project planning, we provide comprehensive support for your battery storage project. A thorough analysis of your load profiles, energy flows, and consumption patterns forms the foundation for a financially successful system design. Only after this analysis do we determine the storage capacity, power output, and integration strategy. This allows us to lay the groundwork for targeted optimization of the system throughout its entire operational life.

Applications: Optimization of self-consumption, peak load reduction, emergency power supply, balancing energy, microgrid and hybrid systems
Benefits: greater energy independence, economic value, and sustainable security of supply

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plants

Through a thorough analysis of your energy consumption, we lay the groundwork for the cost-effective and efficient use of CHP and mini-CHP systems. We guide you through every step of the process—from the initial assessment of potential, through technical and economic design, to detailed planning of system integration—including how to make the most of the heat generated during operation.

Integration: electrical, hydraulic, and gas-side integration, including exhaust gas routing, utility connections, and modifications to existing systems
Benefits: lower energy costs, greater reliability of supply, optimally tailored to your operations
