Accelerating Renewable Integration and Grid Stability with Advanced PPC and SCADA Solutions
Univers has deployed its cutting-edge Power Plant Controller and SCADA systems to optimize a pioneering solar-plus-BESS project in Indonesia. This initiative marks a critical step in Indonesia’s transition to renewable energy, combining 50 MW of solar PV with a 14 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) to deliver reliable, dispatchable clean energy to the grid. The site is projected to generate approximately 93 GWh of renewable energy annually, providing a large amount of green electricity for Nusantara, Indonesia’s future capital.
Grid Stability: Indonesia’s grid required seamless integration of intermittent solar power and rapid-response BESS to maintain voltage and frequency stability.
Operational Complexity: Coordinating solar generation, battery storage, and grid compliance demanded a unified control system.
System integration: Working seamlessly with various OEM devices and systems with different communication protocols.
Hybrid Power Plant Controller for Collaborative Control
Univers’ PPC utilizes advanced PV smoothing algorithm, enabling dynamic power modulation to stabilize solar generation fluctuations. The system manages state-of-charge (SOC) balancing, frequency response, and voltage response, aligning with PLN’s grid requirements.
PV and BESS Energy Management System (EMS)
The PV and BESS EMS automatically completes active power and reactive power commands from the Hybrid PPC or manual input. It continuously monitors the status of all inverters and reasonably allocates power to different inverters using advanced ramp rate control algorithms.
SCADA System for Hybrid Monitoring and Control:
Univers’ SCADA platform aggregates real-time data from 120,000+ solar panels and BESS units, providing operators with granular visibility into plant performance. Features include panoramic monitoring, maintenance alerts, data analysis and automated reporting for effective operation.
Grid Reliability
Achieved highly reliable uptime with seamless solar-BESS synchronization, enhancing grid stability in remote regions.
Operational Efficiency
The unified system, featuring rich functionality, ensures optimal plant performance through key performance indicators (KPIs), facilitating comprehensive evaluation and continuous asset improvement.
