Enercon SCADA
|
ENERCON SCADA has been a proven system for remote wind farm control and monitoring for many years and is also a vital element of ENERCON’s service and maintenance concept. Introduced in 1998, this dependable system is now used in more than 6,500 wind turbines worldwide. It offers a number of optional functions and interfaces to connect ENERCON wind farms to the grid while meeting demanding grid connection regulations. Due to its modular design ENERCON SCADA expansion is simple and flexible and can be adapted to customer-specific applications. Since adaptation to the respective technical and economic conditions of wind farm projects is excellent ENERCON SCADA assures maximum output values.

Energy Management - Power regulation for maximum yield
If the cumulative (nominal) output of a wind farm is greater than the grid connection capacity at the point of common coupling, ENERCON wind farm power regulation ensures that the capacity is used to the fullest at all times. If a wind turbine in the wind farm generates less power, the other turbines are appropriately adjusted to run at a higher capacity. The optional energy management system in ENERCON SCADA handles this automatically.

Voltage Control
As an option, ENERCON’s SCADA system can be expanded to provide ENERCON wind farms with a voltage control feature. This feature, which is a mandatory requirement by utilities in many countries, enables large wind farms to be integrated into relatively weak grids. The reactive power range of ENERCON wind turbines is in this case usually used to control voltage at the point of common coupling. Voltage can be controlled by the grid operator according to predefined conditions or via additional interfaces.
There are various requirements concerning wind farm voltage control. If a wind farm is for example connected to a substation, automatic voltage regulators can be integrated into the control concept. In large wind farms with respective cable lengths, a control system can be used to improve reactive power demand for the contractually agreed point of common coupling with centralized compensation equipment and decentralized wind turbines. ENERCON offers a large number of solutions.

Interfaces
In many countries, integration of wind farms into grid control systems and connection to grid control stations are today standard requirements for wind farms. ENERCON SCADA offers different optional modules which act as interfaces between the various systems. This enables ENERCON’s SCADA system to communicate via analogue or digital interfaces depending on requirements. Certain wind farm target values can be preset and status messages or wind farm measurement values transmitted to the grid operator. If desired, ENERCON METEO offers the possibility of integrating wind masts in farm into the permanent data transfer system.
Bottleneck Management Feeding Into Weak Grids
Not all regions have sufficient transmission capacity available to manage each low-load and strong wind situation. ENERCON’s bottleneck management offers the possibility of connecting wind farms to this type of grid. Constant data exchange between the wind farm and the grid operator ensures that transmission capacity is well adapted to the highest permissible wind farm output.

Wind Farms With Substations
More and more wind farms are feeding power into the grid via substations specially constructed for this purpose. Remote monitoring and control of these substations are often required in order to receive continuous information on switchgear assemblies and, as the case may be, carry out switching operations. ENERCON’s SCADA system features special optional modules for remote monitoring and control of switchgear units and entire substations. Representation and operation are carried out by proven remote monitoring system ENERCON SCADA REMOTE.
