zenon solution for wind energy

zenon is your complete solution for optimizing wind energy operations which employ the latest SCADA and control technologies. One such solution is wind-farm SCADA which delivers the real-time monitoring and efficient management of wind farm operations. zenon also powers wind turbine SCADA software, enabling precision control over every part of the turbine’s operation. Reliability is ensured and predictive maintenance enabled through zenon’s data analytics. The integration of zenon with subprojects – such as wind park controller, wind SCADA, offshore substation, HVADC converter station and platform supervision system – makes it possible to achieve smooth-running onshore and offshore wind farms.

zenon offers specific tools designed for onshore wind substations, offshore converter stations and offshore turbines. It strengthens all parties and eliminates the different bottlenecks associated with the peculiarities of wind power and the diverse location conditions that characterize the field of renewable energy – as well as promoting the general efficiency of the plant. Using zenon’s advanced automation and control strategies, particularly in the operation of advanced turbines, users can fully depend on this alternative power source. zenon enables optimized reliability and durability, while also minimizing any potential risks that might occur during use. Essentially, zenon ensures that the turbines operate efficiently and safely, making this alternative power source a viable and dependable option.

Wind farm SCADA

Realize your independent control room solution for professional plant and fleet management. Drawing on real-time and historical data, zenon builds the foundation for advanced operational (monitoring) and maintenance (O&M). High situational awareness is achieved through intuitive process views and supportive mechanisms, such as interactive alarm management or automatic user notification. Historical data is utilized to dynamically generate detailed reports based on which the operational efficiency can be improved. On the different levels of the solution, zenon´s all-encompassing integration capabilities are of immense value for the synergetic operation of your assets.

Wind park power plant controller

Template project to steer your generation precisely according to given grid codes and utility requirements. With off-the-shelf protocol interfaces, your control center simply connects with network operators or trading pools. zenon´s flexible IEC 61131-3 environment helps you to orchestrate your generation assets, managing set points and operational parameters in strict accordance with the given rules for grid stability and optimizing the plants yield and operational safety.

Substation Automation – Offshore, Onshore and HVDC

As a de-facto standard for substation HMI, substation gateway and substation SCADA solutions, zenon offers a powerful set of capabilities to utility providers, allowing them to manage their assets in a unified manner. Based on independent IED connectivity, advanced topological processing and detailed, “out-of-the-box” control modes, substations of any type and size can be operated. Moreover, zenon supports the seamless integration of substation controls into legacy control room environments.

Offshore Platform Supervision

An offshore platform is a complex ecosystem, consisting of numerous systems and subsystems. Dedicated aspects such as access management, fire-detection, HVAC or emergency power supply and several more require expert skills for operation and maintenance, and need to be constantly checked and observed. In this heterogeneous environment, zenon is able to build a unified monitoring and control layer. Utilizing it´s available protocols (300+ in total), the zenon Software Platform can retrieve data from controllers of any subdomain and integrate it into a professional SCADA application.
