OPTIMAL USAGE
RWE Supply & Trading GmbH (RWE)
Intelligent Energy Management
The production of stainless steel is energy intensive, yet the consumption of individual plants is difficult to forecast. In order to avoid unforeseen peaks, RWE Supply & Trading GmbH (RWE) has set up a new type of power generation, including a storage facility, at Outokumpu, one of the world's largest producers of stainless steel. Sufficient energy reserves must be available 24 hours a day and deployed without delay. This challenge led RWE to Bachmann.
