Control and monitor renewable energy plants
icom Smart Energy Gateway
Secure connection and direct access to renewable energy plants for direct marketing and control energy provision
-101/104 IEC 60870-5 7* § 9 EEG 201 ** MS BDEW TR EA
The profit- and runtime-oriented operation of renewable energy plants requires a cost-efficient connection of grid operators and direct marketers and highest possible plant availability at one time.
Renewable energy plant operators monitor plant values and KPIs permanently and need always a secure remote maintenance access for control interventions. Grid operators (transmission and distribution networks) must always be able to send commands for power system stabilisation (feed-in management) to their remote operation technology (RTU). Direct marketer want exact feeding forecasts and high profit; they always need latest data and protected remote access. You'll reach your targets with the powerful and flexible icom Smart Energy Gateway: reliable, cost-optimised and quick.

Product Information icom Smart Energy Gateway Core functions
Application ■ Transparent access to data loggers, inverters and PLCs/RTUs also of existing plants (retrofit) ■ Network operator priority control ■ Reactive power provision ■ Computation of individual plant KPIs
Connection to SCADA and remote control systems Conversion of the monitoring and control commands via e.g. IEC 60870 and Modbus TCP to the plant protocol - also for plants with existing serial and proprietary interfaces.
IT security Several simultaneous VPN tunnels and VPN technologies allow separated access of the market participants. The IT security requirements in the energy field are met together with further security features.
