Solar PV SCADA & Energy Automation

Integration of solar PV plants into the distribution utility SCADA system: RTU installation, protection relay communication and energy monitoring.

Connecting a solar power plant to the grid does not end with installing the panels. The plant must appear in the distribution utility's SCADA system with the right signals and the right time stamps — only then can the operator detect a fault without sending a crew to site.

At two solar PV plants in the KCETAŞ distribution region we installed SCADA in the distribution substation buildings using Siemens SICAM A8000 CP-8031 RTUs, and established communication with the plants' Schneider Electric Easergy P3 protection relays through these RTUs. After checking every field signal and completing communication and functional tests, both plants were integrated into the KCETAŞ SCADA system.
