The aim of the project is to develop a "Generic Wind Farm Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System" for the wind energy industry. SCADA is a computer-based system that allows local and remote control of basic wind turbine functions and collects data from the wind farm that can be used to analyse and report on the operational performance. As wind farm size, complexity and remoteness of location increase an industry standard SCADA is vitally important to allow effective operation, monitoring, control and reporting.
Turbine manufacturers offer a number of existing systems but these do not always fully meet the needs of wind farm operators and owners. Operators and owners who are involved with more than one turbine supplier end up with a number of incompatible SCADA systems. This causes operational difficulties and makes it hard to compare performance data from different turbines.
This project addresses these issues with the development of a system that will communicate with all turbine types and calculate and store performance data in a consistent way.
A unit called a "Remote Interface Unit" has been developed to communicate directly with the turbine controllers and provide a standard interface to the rest of the SCADA system. It will also have local storage and processing to make the system less dependent on the reliability of the site communications network.
The site communications network is based on an industry-standard protocol (Modbus). The system has been designed so that it can operate on the simplest of networks but will also be able to make use of faster TCP/IP networks when these become cost-effective for wind farm applications.
The system runs on Windows NT and is built from software components using standard, open interfaces (e.g. OPC, ODBC, and Web technology). All user access is through standard Web browsers, allowing multi-user access and simple remote access without any special software.
The system has extensive reporting facilities that allow users to build customised reports from standard, verified options. Reports can be created on demand or can be scheduled and delivered by email. This includes the facility for automatically generating daily, weekly, monthly and annual reports.
Extensive laboratory tests have been carried out and pilot tests have taken place on a commercial wind farm in the UK.
The completed system is available as a commercial product.
