「英中对照」西门子与Voltus合作助力美国商业建筑运营商获取虚拟电厂收益

Siemens and Voltus have teamed up to integrate Voltus’s energy monetization capabilities with Siemens’s building-side intelligent controls and services. This new offering provides a pre-tested comprehensive energy management solution that can help U.S. commercial building operators save energy costs and earn new revenue by limiting peak demand, optimizing energy use patterns and participating in utility and market demand response programs.西门子与 Voltus 合作，将 Voltus 的能源变现能力与西门子的楼宇侧智能控制和服务相集成。这一新产品提供经过预先测试的综合能源管理解决方案，可帮助美国商业楼宇运营商通过限制峰值需求、优化用能模式以及参与公用事业和市场需求响应项目，节约能源成本并获得新收入。

Siemens’s Peak Demand Limiting (PDL) service, a key component of the Siemens Energy Load Optimization (ELO) portfolio, helps companies reduce increasingly high peak demand charges. Integrating this Siemens service with Voltus’s solution now allows PDL customers to also enroll in virtual power plant (VPP) programs that pay them for automatically reducing electricity use in response to utility and grid signals.西门子的 Peak Demand Limiting（PDL）服务是 Siemens Energy Load Optimization（ELO）产品组合的关键组成部分，可帮助企业降低日益高企的峰值需量电费。将这项西门子服务与 Voltus 的解决方案相集成，现在使 PDL 客户还可加入虚拟电厂（VPP）项目；这些项目会针对客户响应公用事业和电网信号自动减少的用电量向其付费。

The cloud-based integration was designed specifically for large energy-using buildings in industries that may have highly complex equipment and operations such as commercial real estate, higher education, and state and local governments.这种基于云的集成专为高耗能大型楼宇而设计，这些楼宇所在行业可能拥有高度复杂的设备和运营，例如商业房地产、高等教育以及州和地方政府。

“Through our partnership with Voltus, our customers can now have a holistic PDL solution that enables both utility demand charge reduction and participation in demand response programs while protecting occupant comfort and indoor conditions,” said David LaTour, U.S. head of sustainability portfolio, Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA. “Additionally, this low-cost, automated load management approach can help improve energy management, automate response to grid events, and provide visibility into building performance.”“通过与 Voltus 的合作，我们的客户现在可以获得整体 PDL 解决方案，既能降低公用事业需量电费，又能参与需求响应项目，同时保障入驻人员舒适度和室内环境，”西门子智能基础设施集团美国区可持续发展产品组合主管 David LaTour 表示。“此外，这种低成本、自动化的负荷管理方法有助于改善能源管理、自动响应电网事件，并提供楼宇绩效可见性。”

“Large loads, electrification and aging infrastructure are putting enormous strain on the grid, and that's creating an opening for commercial buildings to be part of the solution," said Marissa Galizia, senior director of partnerships at Voltus. "Our integration lets buildings deliver more reduction during an event, and do it more reliably, which means more value for customers and the grid for every megawatt enrolled.”“大型负荷、电气化和老化基础设施正在给电网带来巨大压力，这也为商业楼宇成为解决方案的一部分创造了机会，”Voltus 合作伙伴关系高级总监 Marissa Galizia 表示。“我们的集成使楼宇在事件期间能够实现更多、更可靠的负荷削减，这意味着每注册一兆瓦，都能为客户和电网带来更多价值。”
