“Around 40 developers across multiple sites carry out cloud-based engineering work using EPLAN."
“So we got a real solution for our requirements, not just software.”
The company reduced the time needed for measuring a nacelle and determining the lengths for 50 cables by 66%.
“It’s important for us to be using a future-proof software tool that gives us long-term security and is continually being improved and expanded.”
Mastering the challenges of the energy transition with Eplan
Eplan and Rittal offer software tools and hardware products for companies in the energy sector. Our philosophy is based on consistent, end-to-end data that can be used from engineering through manufacturing to system servicing and maintenance. This makes operations more secure and changes easier to manage.
Grid operators, for instance, are exploiting the potential of standardization to quickly retrofit or build new substations and transformer stations. Digital twins additionally help simplify servicing and maintenance and accelerate these processes. Manufacturers of wind turbines or charging infrastructure can raise their manufacturing to the next level with the solutions from Eplan and Rittal.
This type of industrialized production is the only way to build a sustainable energy system more quickly and cost-efficiently.
Tangible added value – in every step of the process
Eplan and Rittal solutions enable data to consistently be used end-to-end along the various steps of your value chain. We naturally have the benefits for each of these steps in mind.
Take the example of planning: with digital twins of the plant systems and augmented reality technology, critical infrastructure can be planned without having to be on site. For procurement, you benefit from the automated creation of bills of materials (as just one example). Documents in 2D and 3D make it possible to provide precise information to production.
Working on an Eplan project means consistent documentation is available for the entire system, facilitating operations and service calls.

We make the “new system project” even faster
We rely on standards and digitalization. Working with this philosophy simply accelerates processes. Project implementation becomes faster through standardization and (partial) automation. Thanks to high-quality data and web configurators, ordering takes less time. Training new employees can be completed more quickly with state-of-the-art software. And other processes are also faster because they run more smoothly.
You can count on us
Our certified software and hardware meet international norms and standards. Your supply chain is secure with us, for reliable expansion. For instance, Eplan Cloud solutions fulfill critical infrastructure requirements and have valid certifications.
In addition, our business model is more than dependable: Eplan and Rittal belong to the Friedhelm Loh Group, which is managed as a foundation. We will, therefore, continue to support you in the future.
We promote exceptional cooperation
We ensure that you can cooperate and collaborate all the time and from anywhere in the world. For more transparency throughout the entire process, collaboration is even possible across companies in the cloud.
Despite our broad product portfolio, our customers have one point of contact. If optimization is required, the experts from Eplan Consulting can help.
Our experience creates synergies
Standardization and modularity make it possible for you to react quickly to high demands on the market. Leading to more profitability in the energy transition. The synergies between Eplan and Rittal further mean comparatively low production costs. Rittal’s series products are available around the world. The company has extensive expertise in industrializing processes globally and across industries.
Standardization based on industrial models
The benefits of standardization in the energy sector are clear. Incidentally, these are the principles that industrial companies also work by – with the efficient planning, design and manufacturing of a large number of standardized systems with many variants. This enables companies in the energy sector to manage the expansion of their infrastructure.
Our solutions are developed based on the highest security standards. For instance, Eplan software products are certified to ISO/IEC 27001 and thus meet the requirements for documented information security management systems.
Everyone works together with the solutions from Eplan and Rittal
A foundation is required in which everyone involved in planning and design can exchange information. Eplan Cloud is such a solution – and the products from Rittal are already integrated into it. The software from Eplan helps to advance the expansion of grids and decentralized energy systems. Data is used consistently from the start to the finish in engineering as well as in the design and manufacturing process.
We’re networking the energy ecosystem with these integrated solutions.
- Grid expansion
- Decentralized energy systems
