Abstract
Due to the energy transition in Germany, an efficient convergence of various energy supply infrastructures is
more and more addressed by technical research. Both physical and virtual coupling points between the infrastructures have
to be found. The proposed approach, which is termed Energetic Neighbourhoods, aims to realize the concept of hybrid
grids on a local level. In the project example the processes from neighbouring enterprises are analysed in terms of incoming
and outgoing energy flows as well as timely flexibility. Subsequently, automation architectures that technically connect the
processes are developed based on the gathered data in order to gain economic advantages.
