SCADA development for an islanded microgrid

The aim of this paper is to describe a SCADA tool for an intelligent microgrid. This application provides control over a smart microgrid that contains inverters, batteries and generators with power meters. In this system, the energy is generated by solar panels, a geothermal generator, a biomass generator and stored in batteries. The data is collected and represented on a PC Interface. The communication between the components and the application is accomplished through different protocols and standards. The connected devices can be detected, the inverters and power meter values, such as power and voltage, are read through the software application. These values, such as power, voltage, the speed of generators, can also be modified through this interface.
