With the increased number of solar installations, importance of system monitoring and safety rises. In this trend, wired communications play a key role. Safety standards like SunSpec® Rapid Shutdown (RSD) which support NEC 2014, NEC2017 and UL1741 module-level rapid shutdown are built on wired communication interface.
Generating power from the wind will aid in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and in the conservation of natural resources for future generations. However, there are many technical challenges that hinder the large scale penetration of wind farm systems into the power system networks.
The ICT systems have to enable effective Operation and Maintenance (O&M) and seamless control of individual wind turbines and the WPP as a whole. Each plant or wind farm may be composed of many wind turbine units manufactured by different vendors.
The use of ICT in the modern wind power plants has also become the norm and offers numerous benefits in addressing the challenges of wind power integration. ICT can support the efficient scheduling of wind power generation and energy dispatch, and can be used in automation, protection, and even in reactive power control applications.
Accelerating energy transition towards renewables is central to net-zero emissions. However,building a global power system dominated by solar and wind energy presents immense challenges. Here,we
