    Decarbonization - Renewable Gasses in the Energy System

PSIcontrol/Greengas

Winner of the German Gas Industry's Innovation Award in the category "Intelligent Infrastructure".

Gas networks are taking on new tasks. In the future, there will be different gases with different properties in existing gas infrastructures. With its "Green Gas Network Simulation" PSI has developed a solution for climate-neutral and flexible operation of gas networks. The company supports network operators in the conversion of their networks for the growing transport of renewable and decarbonized gases.

With PSIcontrol/Greengas, complex gas networks with different gas properties can be reliably monitored and efficiently controlled.

PSIgasguide

Gas grid operations

PSIgasguide identifies the best operational modes for reliable gas grid operations using boundary values and decision criteria. The software first utilizes future gas transport volumes and determines potential modes. A ranking is then calculated to assist the operator in selecting the optimal mode. The ranking is determined by evaluating different criteria based on a multi-criteria decision making technique.

Network Simulation with PSIganesi

State of the art

Use the most advanced simulation technology to discover what really happens at each point inside your transportation or distribution gas network. Thousands of virtual sensors and virtual meters are automatically made available to provide highly accurate data. Quickly identify changing conditions and their root causes. Observe immediately all effects of operator actions. And, combine the simulation with other applications to improve gas transportation, gas quality tracking, leak detection, and more.

Real-Time

Estimate the current process state taking pressure, flow, gas composition as well as temperature into account. Simulation results are checked continuously. All information including alarms and warning messages is logged and displayed.
