Smart Grid test run in Vorarlberg - Bytes not excavators inside the Biosphere Park Grosses Walsertal

In some regions of Vorarlberg no more power stations can be hooked up to the grid without costly enhancement measures. A new approach here is a bidirectional, so-called "active" distribution grid.Together with numerous partners, and with support from BMVIT and the Climate and Energy Fund, the province of Vorarlberg is developing (within the framework of various research projects) new approaches to smart network management, and testing the technical and economic feasibility of these ideas in a regional context.
