entegra AG
primtech Solutions - Power Engineering Excellence
primtech by entegra is a global provider of software and services for high-voltage substation design, engineering, and digitalization. Our mission is to enable the energy sector to master the energy transition through digital transformation. As power grids expand and renewable energy grows, utilities face unprecedented challenges. primtech helps them take control with digital solutions that streamline every stage of the substation lifecycle.
Used by grid operators, EPC contractors, and engineering firms across 70 countries, primtech 3d is the best-in-class and most specialized BIM authoring software when it comes to HV substations for both greenfield and brownfield projects. primtech DT extends the value of these intelligent BIM models into operations with a comprehensive digital twin environment, improving data quality, transparency, and collaboration across teams. For existing substations, our digitalization service OSR+PRO provides a fast and structured digital inventory to clean-up legacy documentation and close the gap between physical and digital assets.
Founded in 1991 in Karlsruhe, Germany, entegra has evolved from a CAD-focused engineering software firm into an international specialist for digital substation solutions. In 2024 we established primtech North America LLC, enabling us to serve utilities and engineering partners in the US and Canada more directly.
Today, primtech is part of entegra AG, bringing together IT and HV engineering expertise with more than 100 professionals across Germany, North- and South America. Together, we support customers worldwide in modernizing their substations, increasing efficiency, and preparing their grids for the challenges ahead.
Connector
EPLAN and primtech are combining their expertise in the fields of secondary and primary engineering to enable a more integrated approach to substation design. At the heart of this collaboration is the integration of both disciplines within a digital twin, allowing users to work seamlessly across different tools whilst ensuring that plant data remains consistent throughout the entire lifecycle. Through the structured exchange of data from primtech 3d to EPLAN, customers can create single-line diagrams more efficiently and establish clearer, more reliable engineering processes. This approach also supports the digitalisation of existing substations and helps utility companies integrate older assets into a modern, data-driven environment.
