Control

MEETING EXPANDING DEMANDS FOR
RENEWABLE ENERGY PLANT CONTROL

TRADITIONAL PLANT CONNECTIVITY AND CONTROL METHODS RESTRICT GROWTH

  • Traditional SCADA systems are not designed for high levels of interoperability with broader ecosystems
  • Adding new functions to legacy systems can be slow and expensive
  • Smart grid, energy trading and virtual power plants require unified and interoperable control solutions
  • Patchwork cybersecurity does not meet new regulations and emerging threats

DISTRIBUTED GENERATION MODELS BRING TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC CHALLENGES

  • Distributed generation business models typically require the ability to balance between consumption and export
  • Grid operators often introduce regulations requiring intelligent control for power management and grid stability
  • Microgrids with energy storage and EV charging make interoperable and intelligent control a must
  • The capital cost of traditional control systems makes small-scale power production less viable

CLOUD-NATIVE TECHNOLOGY AND SOFTWARE ARE REDEFINING PLANT CONTROL

  • Digital Control Platforms, like Ardexa, deliver unified interoperability for complex distributed control systems
  • Soft PLCs with open standards (e.g. IEC 61131-3) are lowering costs, increasing flexibility and self sufficiency
  • Cloud-native solutions and real-time data exchange enable easy controller tuning and adjustment
  • Control solutions are increasingly managed remotely by technicians
  • New systems need to manage multiple industrial and IT protocols
  • Digital Control Platforms embed multi-layered cybersecurity protection

ARDEXA DELIVERS INTEROPERABILITY FOR LARGE PORTFOLIOS

  • Ardexa complements plant-based SCADA systems with intelligent cloud-managed control capabilities
  • A unified control platform enables seamless interoperability with disparate local control systems and third-party sources
  • Cybersecurity is fortified by eliminating the use of multiple VPNs which typically leverage dated encryption technology
  • The Ardexa cloud-native platform delivers new levels of flexibility, scalability and cost effectiveness

ARDEXA PROVIDES AFFORDABLE AND PRACTICAL PLANT CONTROL

  • Pre-configured controllers are ready to use out-of-the-box.
  • Soft PLCs are available for customers to develop their own logic and algorithms
  • Rapid deployment from the cloud reduces costs and complexity
  • Ardexa software delivers economically viable control solution for the smallest of plants
