Smart Grid STE with SCADA (WinFact)

The increasing share of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics and wind turbines in power generation in combination with conventional power plants requires a completely new (intelligent or "smart") grid management. The LEYBOLD STE Smart Grid provides demonstrative experiments on this topic:

• Operation of the conventional power grid.
• Problems with the integration of renewable energies and the operation of "smart" solutions.

The WinFACT software combined with a CASSY measurement interface provides a SCADA environment.
