In 2008, the Smart Watts project won the E-Energy competition as one of six sample regions. One of the syndicate members is Kellendonk Elektronik.
By using innovative information and communication technologies, a balance between energy generation and consumption is to be assured to make German site's future-proof.
Kellendonk Elektronik's task in this pilot project with its EUR 160m budget is developing a communication base (BUS system) and electronics that can be used to control the device based on pre-defined parameters ("wash when power is cheaper" or "wash only using solar energy from my town"). This increases not only the respective benefits for each individual customer, but also improves Germany's energy system efficiency. The smart, mostly self-controlling components are to be realised as plug and play adapters for old devices and as integrative components for new ones.
Our independence as an electronics developer enables us to develop one electronics module for all manufacturers and suppliers. Our long experience with all key markets provides us with an opportunity for innovative solutions. This results in an energy political triad of security of supply, environmental compatibility and efficiency.
