For power grids to function smoothly and reliably, a constant balance must be maintained between power generation and usage.

The enormous changes to electricity grids, with rapidly increasing demand and a shift from centralised to decentralised generation, will make load management an even more important task in the coming years.

This balance is achieved in various ways around the world.

Technologies such as audio frequency ripple control and telecontrol play a major role in medium and high voltage systems by reliably performing regular control operations on individual generators or consumers. Even in an emergency, however, thousands of PV systems, heat pumps or charging stations can be switched on or off in a matter of seconds.  

With its reliable solutions, LMS Services supports energy suppliers and network operators in keeping our electricity grids in balance.
