The energy storage system of most interest to solar PV producers is the battery energy storage system, or BESS. While only 2–3% of energy storage systems in the U.S. are BESS (most are still hydro pumps), there is an increasing move to integrate BESS with renewables. What is a BESS and what are its key characteristics?
Furthermore, PLCs are used in smart grids to enable demand response capabilities. This means that in times of high demand or during peak hours, the PLCs can automatically adjust power distribution to optimize energy usage and prevent overloads. This not only improves grid stability, but also enhances energy efficiency.
One of the key applications of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) in the field of renewable energy systems is in smart grids. Smart grids are modern electrical grids that utilize digital technology to monitor and manage the flow of electricity. PLCs play a crucial role in these grids by providing automation and control capabilities.
The PLCs we use and recommend most often are GE RX3i controllers, Emerson Ovation controllers and Allen-Bradley ControlLogix controllers. Allen-Bradley is also known as Rockwell Automation. These are slot-based hardware PLCs that can communicate with field or substation devices and equipment via several network protocols.
The logic, or PLC program, is stored inside the hardware using non-volatile flash memory, a battery backed-up RAM, or a special chip. The PLC can then run the embedded logic on its own without the need for an outside computer and operating system (OS) like Windows.
By controlling and monitoring various aspects of the electrical grid, PLCs play a crucial role in ensuring that the grid operates efficiently and reliably. One of the key ways in which PLCs contribute to grid stability is through their ability to quickly respond to changes in electricity demand and supply.
