Energy Automation

Your partner for comprehensive energy automation

Energy Automation at TRIPS stands for the intelligent networking and automation of modern energy distribution systems. The TRIPS group offers the complete end-to-end process – from analysis and planning to engineering, commissioning and long-term support. Our systems combine substation automation, SCADA and protection technology into an integrated, standard-compliant platform that guarantees maximum availability, efficiency and future-proofing.

Whether integrating renewable energies, modernizing existing grids or setting up new systems – we seamlessly connect field and control technology and rely on established standards such as IEC 61850, OPC UA and MQTT. In this way, we create open, scalable and manufacturer-independent solutions that adapt precisely to your grid architecture.

With energy automation from TRIPS, you not only get state-of-the-art technology, but also an experienced partner who will accompany your project from the initial idea through to reliable operation – all from a single source.

ENERGY AUTOMATION

Substation Automation

Substation Automation integrates protection, control and monitoring systems in substations, optimizes the energy flow and ensures safe, efficient and future-proof grid management.

Protection Technology

Modern protection technology detects short circuits, overloads or earth faults at an early stage and selectively disconnects affected parts of the system from the mains to prevent damage and keep the supply stable.

SCADA Systems

SCADA systems monitor and control energy systems in real time, visualize all operating and grid data and thus enable rapid fault detection and targeted troubleshooting.

From producer to consumer<brY – TRIPS intelligently controls energy supply

Renewable energy sources such as wind turbines, solar fields and hydroelectric power plants generate a large proportion of our electricity today. In order for this to be transported efficiently, it first flows into substations. There, the voltage is transformed – from low generation voltages to high transmission voltages – so that the energy can be transported over long distances with virtually no losses.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are also increasingly being integrated at these hubs – an area in which the TRIPS group is also active. They compensate for grid fluctuations, store surplus energy and release it back into the grid when required.

With Energy Automation, TRIPS ensures that all systems – from field to control technology – work together seamlessly throughout this entire process. Whether for control in the substations, monitoring via SCADA or the integration of modern protection technology.

Services for networked and future-proof energy automation

The TRIPS group offers a comprehensive range of services for planning, automating and operating energy systems reliably, efficiently and in compliance with standards. We cover the entire process, from design and integration to testing, commissioning and long-term support. We rely on open standards, modern automation technology and our many years of experience to optimally combine generation, storage, transmission and distribution.

Grid calculation & engineering

Detailed network calculations are essential for a reliable, safe, and efficient power supply. They provide precise data for optimal system design, the development of suitable protection concepts, and the implementation of high-performance automation. By simulating operating and fault conditions, the TRIPS group identifies potential weaknesses at an early stage and creates a solid foundation for successful project implementation.

Benefits:

  • Optimal system sizing

  • Increased grid and supply security

  • Solid basis for protection and control concepts

Switchgear construction

Custom-designed switchgear produced at our factory in Germany securely connects power generation, storage, and consumers. Through precise planning, high-quality components, and standards-compliant execution, durable systems with maximum operational safety are created. In addition, the TRIPS group offers tailored maintenance contracts to ensure the long-term availability and safety of your switchgear.

Benefits:

  • Custom planning and manufacturing

  • High system availability

  • Standards-compliant implementation

  • Long-term support through maintenance contracts

Commissioning & protection testing

From detailed preliminary testing through precise parameterization to the final grid connection, the TRIPS group ensures a smooth and efficient start-up of your energy systems. Comprehensive protection testing verifies functionality under real-world conditions and ensures that systems respond quickly and reliably in the event of a fault. This guarantees consistent grid stability, operational safety, and plant availability.

Benefits:

  • Comprehensive FAT and SAT testing

  • Verified protection systems for maximum safety

  • Minimized downtime and error risk

International standards for a connected energy world

Modern energy automation solutions rely on international communication standards to exchange data securely, quickly and independently of manufacturers. This creates a consistent and future-proof connection between all energy generation, distribution and storage components.

IEC 61850

International standard for communication, data modelling and interoperability in substations and power plants.

 

OPC UA

Open, platform-independent protocol for secure and reliable data exchange between different systems.

MQTT

Lightweight messaging protocol for efficient, fast and resource-saving data transmission in IoT and energy systems.
