Alfen Smart Grid solutions
From micro-grids to connecting large scale solar PV. From energy storage to grid automation.
Alfen is building the energy grid of the future; sustainable, reliable and innovative.
The usage of solar panels is growing exponentially. Due to our extensive experience with large energy projects for both industrial and horticultural organizations, Alfen can construct complete solar parks for every type of company. Alfen provides full service to its clients, by caring for every step of the process: from delivering the panels, to completely installing them and providing for daily management and regular maintenance.
Alfen started its grid automation offering (Alfen Connect) in 2008 with the connection of its charging equipment for electric vehicles to the internet. Since then Alfen Connect has been expanded to remotely monitor and control substations and energy storage systems. Currently over 35.000 Alfen assets are connected to the Internet of Things.
The connection of the medium voltage cable to the generator is an essential part of the electric installation. Daily practice proves this is a weak point in many infrastructures, often being the source of a significant disruption in continuity for companies. With the Sicuro, Alfen provides for junction boxes that guarantee a reliable generator cable connection. This solution helps to prevent cable lug ruptures and therefore contributes to securing organizational continuity.
