José Cardoso Botelho, CEO of Vanguard Properties, which owns theInfinity building, said: “Real estate activity has a considerable impact both environmentallyand socially on the community. Infinity is a project of immense pride to us,and an important reference of our digital transformation. We are glad to havecollaborated with Siemens to create a sustainable building for tomorrow.”

The integrated EV (Electric Vehicle) charging solution was customized bySiemens engineering and software teams in Portugal. It allows for dynamic andintelligent on-site charging management. The dashboards, which are intuitiveand easy to use, present comprehensive information to the building manager oroperator who can instantly view all information about each charger, as well asmonitor energy consumption in real time. Precise reports per apartment based onmonthly consumption are produced, facilitating optimization of the building'senergy performance.

VersiChargewallboxes are distributed over six charging islands,across three floors of the building. The energy management system is alsoprepared for the future integration of photovoltaic or other renewable energygeneration, as well as energy storage systems which will contribute further toenergy efficiency and the reduction of the building's greenhouse gas emissions.The system includes the latestcybersecurity functionalities, and it supports global efforts to achieveclimate targets by enabling the expansion of renewable energies.

Markus Mildner CEO eMobility, Siemens SmartInfrastructure added: “Managing EV charging infrastructure via intelligent loadmanagement is crucial for sustainable energy systems and grid stability”.

The contract includes delivery of thehighly scalable SICAM Dynamic LoadManagement (DLM), based on the SICAMA8000 power automation platform. TheSICAM A8000 series is a modular device range for telecontrol and power gridautomation applications in all areas of energy supply. SICAM DLM is afuture-ready, highly robust charging station management system. It is preparedto receive grid constraint signals from distributionsystem operators (DSOs) and to integrate localdistributed energy resources (DER) and energy storage systems, making it theideal solution for the energy transition.

It facilitates communication withchargers, from which it extracts information related to consumption and offersdynamic charging management algorithms. As part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, an open digital platform thatenables customers to accelerate their digital transformation easier, faster,and at scale, the device supports a dynamic load management strategy for theoperators of the building.

Portugal’s recovery and resilience planaims to support the economic growth and make it ready for the future. The planinvolves the deployment of 15,000 electric vehicle charging stations by 2025. TheInfinity building is a luxury condominium by Vanguard Properties located inSete Rios, Campolide, Lisbon. It is one of thelargest residential projects in the city, with 26 floors above ground, 195apartments, and 352 parking spaces, covering more than 50,000 square meters offloor area. It is set to be the tallest and most iconic residential spot inLisbon’s city center with environmental engineering and sustainability at itscore.
