Autenrieth Plastics Technology

Autenrieth Kunststofftechnik shows how industry can become sustainable: With a PV system and Voltfang storage system, the company reduces peak loads, lowers energy costs and improves its carbon footprint – a strong signal for sustainable production.

Plastics technology at Autenrieth

Benefits for Autenrieth

Targeted peak load shaving
Reduction of peak load from 320 kW by 105 kW – reduces grid load
Significant cost savings
Lower grid fees thanks to atypical grid usage
Increase production flexibility
Stable energy supply even during peak load times
CO₂ reduction immediately measurable
Lower emissions through the use of requalified electric car batteries

Implemented use case

Autenrieth uses a large PV system to cover part of its own energy requirements. During peak times, the grid load used to rise sharply—resulting in high fees and the risk of bottlenecks. The Voltfang battery storage system now buffers these loads: it absorbs peaks of up to 105 kW and provides energy exactly when it is needed. This keeps production stable and allows maximum use of solar power.

Aim of the project

The company wanted to make its plastics production more economical and climate-friendly. In addition to reducing energy costs, the main focus was on protecting against grid overloads—without expensive and time-consuming grid expansion. At the same time, the PV system’s self-consumption rate was to be increased in order to reduce CO₂ emissions and make the site sustainable.

Our customized solution

With a 180 kWh Voltfang battery storage system (184 kW) with intelligent control, peak loads at Autenrieth are capped and solar power is used optimally. This enables the company to reduce its energy costs, increase production reliability, and improve its carbon footprint in the long term.
