Managing Multiple Microgrids with a Building-to-Grid Approach
Unified energy control across buildings – for smarter operation, flexibility, and market participation
Multiple microgrids without coordination lose their full potential
Many companies and institutions operate several separate microgrids across buildings, sites, or facilities – each with its own consumption, generation, and storage. While these systems may perform well individually, their full potential remains untapped without coordination. With FLOWBOX EMOS, you can implement a Building-to-Grid (B2G) strategy, turning each building from a passive energy consumer into an active grid resource. By interconnecting microgrids and coordinating their behavior, you can manage your energy portfolio as a single, smart system – ready to balance internal needs and respond to grid demands.
FLOWBOX EMOS enables unified microgrid portfolio control and active market participation
Central dispatch and unified control
FLOWBOX EMOS connects all microgrids into a single control layer – allowing you to monitor operations, set rules, and manage priorities across sites from one place.
Optimization of consumption and generation across locations
The system continuously monitors where energy is available and where it's needed, and dynamically manages loads and storage usage.
Commanding based on grid or aggregator needs
FLOWBOX can switch from internal optimization to external control – for example, to provide grid services or reduce consumption on aggregator request.
Shared flexibility and capacity planning
Based on production and consumption forecasts, the system determines how much capacity and flexibility can be offered without disrupting operations.
Integration with energy platforms
FLOWBOX communicates with energy traders, flexibility aggregators, and transmission system operators (TSOs).
Automated reports and strategic decision-making data
The system provides both real-time and historical data from all locations – including automatic reports and cross-site performance comparisons.
Result: One system, multiple sites, complete control
FLOWBOX EMOS turns your building network into a connected energy system. Microgrids actively collaborate, share capacity, and adapt to internal needs and external opportunities. With the Building-to-Grid approach, you gain more efficient energy use, cost savings, and the ability to actively participate in modern energy markets.
