Borussia Dortmund is an iconic name in world football, and a successful global brand as a result. Its achievements on the pitch, both in the recent past and further back in the history books, have made the club one of the most popular in the global game.

From the charging of electric cars to the use of heat pumps and the operation of photovoltaic systems, the number and frequency of processes that require a substantial amount of electricity is constantly on the rise. The result is an increased demand for grid connections and connection changes in private households and at businesses. Operators of energy supply networks are reaching their limits in terms of staffing and are finding it difficult to meet the high demand. Through digital application management for grid connection requests, adesso provides grid operators with a modular solution that makes it possible to keep records of applications and process them quickly while conserving resources.
