It is probably the largest combined photovoltaic, heat generation, and electromobility project in Germany. Our project partner MaxSolar GmbH has now been nominated for the Smarter E Award 2024 (category "Outstanding Projects"). We congratulate them warmly and are delighted to be part of this energy transition lighthouse project with our data analytics platform.
It is a special solar park in Bundorf in Lower Franconia. This is because some of the solar power generated is supplied to a heat pump heating center on the outskirts of the village via a direct power line. Solar power is used to generate climate-friendly district heating.
If the solar power is not sufficient, a wood chip heating system is available as a supplement. And in the event that excess solar power is available and there is even a threat of the PV system being curtailed, the electricity can also be used and stored for heat generation via an electric boiler.
E-charging stations in Bundorf round off the regenerative supply concept.
Lighthouse project of the energy transition
Heat pumps, electric boilers, e-charging stations, and the biomass heating system including storage are connected to the mondas® data analytics platform. Not only is their proper operation monitored there. Intelligent data analysis can also be used to control and optimize overall operation according to both ecological and economic criteria.
"Bundorf is a complex, yet typical lighthouse project for sector coupling, as we will see in more and more energy systems in the future," says Christian Reetz, company founder and Managing Director of Mondas.
"We would therefore like to congratulate our project partner MaxSolar GmbH on its more than justified nomination for the Smarter E Award and thank them for their excellent collaboration on this innovation project. And of course we are keeping our fingers crossed for the upcoming award ceremony," emphasizes Christian Reetz.
