Dr. Kai Strübbe, Head of Embedded Systems, TÜV SÜD AG, presented some crucial aspects of the Integration of renewable power into the Smart Grids at the Hanover Fair 2012:
The Integration of Wind Energy and Photovoltaic into a Smart Grid
Hannover Messe, 24 April 2012
According to the figures shown in the presentation there are more than 1,000,000 low voltage substations in Germany – most of them are not yet controllable! It’s a huge market.
He said that “IEC 61850 Will Be the Esparanto of the Smart Grid” – Right. IEC 61850 (IEC 61400-25) is a language that is already spoken in the medium and high voltage networks – the huge low voltage domain is next!
There is a huge interest in learning this language and easy to use IEC 61850 hardware and software shown during the fair in Hanover. The crucial questions were on how to implement the standards in a short time to market. SystemCorp and TQ had the right answer.

The problem with "Esperanto" is - many people fancy it but nobody uses it.
So we have to look out if IEC61850 is not only a very clever communication scheme - but it also gets out to the field.
