What happens when a substation and a battery storage park are operated through two separate SCADA platforms – and why can this become a risk at a critical moment?

In an interview with Energy magazine (Issue 6/2026), Vladimir Georgiev, Production Manager at EL KONTROL, discusses the company’s expanding activities in the field of Energy Management Systems (EMS) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).

The Career Days exhibition at the Technical University of Sofia and its Plovdiv Branch attracted strong interest from students. 
Our EL KONTROL stand was supported by our interns Georgi and Berkay, who shared their hands-on experience and impressions from their internships with us with the future engineers. Thank you, colleagues! 

Siemens has unveiled the next generation of its Industrial Automation DataCenter – an "AI-ready" infrastructure for processing large data volumes in production environments. The product is a fully custom-configured data center, designed to meet all specific IT requirements of modern manufacturing.

The event, featuring live demonstrations, focused on the latest technological developments in infrastructure and industry. Both days drew great interest from representatives of leading local companies, as well as energy and technical experts and designers.

As the demand for smart, efficient, and reliable automation solutions grows, industries need scalable solutions that boost productivity without compromising efficiency.
