Designing and Development of Solar SCADA

  Hemant Jhamnani,  Chirag Dalal

The main aim of this work is to Design and Develop the SCADA (Major) and Control System (Minor) of a Solar Plant to continuously monitor various energy parameters. Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are used in solar power plants for monitoring, control, remote communication purpose. The Solar plant does not have any moving parts, as a result we need live and historical details about the plant, so we use SCADA system that monitors all the critical field devices such as inverters, mfm, smb and weather parameters like humidity, temperature and weather. All this is combined to provide a real time and plant comprehensive view of the entire solar plant with the continuous alert system, viewed from anywhere (at site/corporate office) - on PC/Mobile.

Keywords- Opto22 Snap PAC R1 controller, solar SCADA monitoring and optimization, data acquisition system, PAC Control Pro, PAC Display Pro, Supervisory monitoring and control station.
