Substation Design needs a Database
Das ist der Intro Text zum Blogbeitrag, der ganz kurz anreißt worum es in dem Beitrag geht und dem Leser Lust auf mehr machen soll.
primtech develops software for design & engineering, Digital Twins and intelligent data management of electrical substations. For almost three decades, we’ve helped utilities, EPCs and engineering companies deliver better substations faster, with higher quality and complete digital continuity.

Our team combines deep expertise in power engineering, software development and digitalization. We’re active in industry bodies like CIGRE and VDE — not just following developments, but helping shape where grid digitalization is heading.
As an owner-operated company with founders still closely involved, we think beyond the next quarter. We build solutions that last and contribute meaningfully to the grid’s digital transformation. For us, sustainable success comes before short-term gains.
For us as a company, sustainable success comes before short-term gains.

The energy transition is changing the way power grids are designed, built and operated. We believe digitalization is key to making that transformation possible.
That’s why we develop software and digital solutions that connect engineering, asset data and operations, helping utilities and engineering companies work with better information and more efficient digital workflows.
The purpose of our North Star, “Boosting Digital Transformation for Power Grids,” guides what we build, how we innovate and where we want to make a difference: helping the power industry become more digital, connected and ready to master the grid expansion.

I’ve been with primtech since 2011. I mainly work at the interface between primtech users and primtech software—more specifically, in quality assurance. I’m also involved in translating texts into English. Personally, I find it very exciting to work on projects involving a product as fascinating as primtech, alongside such a diverse group of colleagues.
Thanks to the innovative projects, there are always opportunities to grow and learn new things.
I appreciate that we employees regularly have the chance to meet everyone else, especially those who usually work from home. We have a large, cozy kitchen with delicious coffee, a monthly group dinner, a summer party, and a company outing.
I also appreciate being able to organize my work schedule in a family-friendly and flexible way, the flat hierarchies, and the knowledge-sharing with my helpful colleagues. Plus, our managers are always willing to listen.
So it’s a very pleasant, constructive work atmosphere, and I really enjoy coming to work every day.
I work for entegra for almost 10 years. My main role in the company is to train our worldwide customers how to use primtech software. Also convincing potential customers from technical perspective to go for a primtech by doing onsite or online presentations and participating in different exhibitions anywhere in the world. Our great bosses, sales, developers, marketing team, secretary team made us that we almost have no competition. The key to success is teamwork.
