2 RENEWABLE ENERGIES 2.0 Through its PowerTech technology, Knorr Bremse is at the forefront of designing energy concepts for the future. Power s are an important link between energy sources, consumers and applications. They optimize power that is generated by individual power sources such as windparks. Power s also help optimize the power grid by converting excess energy during peak loads to stored energy and then converting this stored energy back to the grid during non-peak times. PowerTech also has the expertise to optimizes grid power by feeding in reactive current for power factor optimization and low voltage ride through. FULL POWER FOR THE GRID Todays energy grids increasingly balance various energy sources and loads. This could include wind, solar, hydropower and conventional energy sources combined with concepts such as batteries or power-to-gas. With the aid of grid compensation systems for large hydrolysis systems, for instance, or simply for large consumers of supplied power, the load on the grid is significantly reduced by minimizing the reactive currents produced there that cannot be utilized. PowerTech is working intensively on the development of these systems for large public grids but also for smaller isolated systems with black start capabilities (microgrids). AREAS OF APPLICATION Renewable energy sources Industry and production Intelligent power generation: Inverter, grid support, Intelligent consumption: Optimized energy supply, grid compensation Energy applications Energy solutions Residential areas & isolated networks Micro-grids & UPS Solar & wind energy Power-to-gas Battery Compressed air Flywheel

3 EFFICIENT ENERGY CONVERSION WITH GRID STABILITY: Cutting-edge technology from energy generation to NEW STANDARD FOR OPTIMIZED ENERGY SUPPLY Knorr-Bremse PowerTech s for energy generation and convert energy from generators/motors or renewable energy sources into the needed form to supply the grid or be stored. That allows PowerTech frequency s to supply and connect energy generation and systems in the optimum way and provide grid stability for the relevant application. They integrate the generated energy and allow it to be fed to the grid or stored for later use. This ensures efficient and environmentally friendly consumption. CAN BE USED IN A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS The use of cutting-edge technology and the modular design of the PowerTech s enable easy adaptation to specific requirements: n Renewable energy generation from solar energy, wind energy and hydropower n Frequency control, optimal power supply and stability in distribution grids n Energy solutions such as battery systems, compressed air and flywheel and power-to-gas n Energy supply for isolated solutions and microgrids n Grid compensation TECHNICAL FEATURES n IGBT-based four-quadrant technology n For DC and AC applications n AFE active front end functionality n Scalable and individually adaptable modular output stages n Very good control properties field-oriented n Low losses and high immunity n Minimal electromagnetic emissions n Modular and flexible design and construction n Optimized air or water cooling n Grid compensation through the provision of symmetrical or asymmetrical reactive power, optimized grid voltage quality, and compensation for reactive power harmonics and flicker n User-friendly service software n Supports common fieldbus systems (CAN, PROFIBUS, ETHERCAT etc.), binary interfaces are also available PowerTech s for energy generation and
