THE POWER OF KINETIC ENERGY FOR UNINTERRUPTED RELIABILITY
How to achieve reliable, instantaneous, high power quality without batteries
In this session Christoph Webinger and Bernard Hanssens introduce the basic principles of a Dynamic UPS (DUPS) system and the key benefits of rotary technology. Using real-life installations from around the world, they present specific scenarios where mtu Kinetic PowerPacks are used to protect critical logistics, sensitive manufacturing, and mission critical operations.
- Basic understanding of how a rotary DUPS works
- Overview of DUPS technology features and benefits
- Advantages of DUPS solutions compared to battery-powered static UPS Examples of successful installations around the globe
HYDROGEN: THE FUEL OF THE FUTURE
How hydrogen can enable a CO2-neutral future
In this session Armin Fürderer, Director of Hydrogen Solutions for the Power Systems division of Rolls-Royce, focuses on the industry’s favorite fuel topic: hydrogen. Aside from hydrogen blending with natural gas, hydrogen-powered fuel cells will also play a role in the future energy landscape. Rolls-Royce already has tangible experience in this area, from building hydrogen test benches to launching a hydrogen demonstrator at our validation center to commissioning our first pilot hydrogen installation.
- Understanding the potential for hydrogen as a sustainable fuel in power generation applications
- Exploring different hydrogen production techniques and the various "colors" of hydrogen
- Overview of real-life hydrogen projects at Rolls-Royce, including fuel cell technology
COMPLEX SOLUTIONS FOR COMPLEX REQUIREMENTS
What to do when a standard solution doesn’t fit
In this session Alexander Patt, Director of Product Engineering & Execution EMEA at Rolls-Royce’s Power Systems division, explores how complex system designs are developed to meet the most challenging project requirements. He also explains how project management and engineering experts from Rolls-Royce describe the process for breaking down complex problems into solvable solutions to meet your power demands.
- Learning how to identify common project challenges
- Understanding what options are available for resolving unique challenges
- Considerations for how to identify the most effective solution
INTELLIGENT CONTROLS: THE HEART OF ANY DISTRIBUTED ENERGY SYSTEM
Why intelligent controls are essential for the new energy landscape
In this presentation Jan Henker, Senior Expert on Automation & Controls for the Power Systems division of Rolls-Royce, and Dr. Dominic Buchstaller, Director of Electric & Electronic Systems, introduce our new control platform EnergetIQ and explore the importance of intelligent controls in effectively managing distributed energy resources to create a high-performing system.
