Matrikon OPC in the Wind Power Industry

Standardizing data access with OPC improves wind farm management and performance:

As environmental concerns grow and oil prices fluctuate, the power generation industry is shifting toward renewable energy sources like wind power. Wind installations, however, come with their own set of challenges. Continuous access to real-time data from multiple, geographically dispersed stations is essential for making informed production decisions and effectively managing wind farm assets.

By standardizing data access through OPC, wind farm performance and asset control can be significantly improved. OPC solutions gather high-resolution, real-time data that enable users to analyze and optimize operations. In addition, OPC’s secure, open connectivity between Wind Turbine Controllers and decision-makers makes it a cornerstone of the Green and Renewable Energy movement.

Data delivery is crucial in the wind energy sector. The OPC Hub and Spoke architecture plays a vital role in establishing a standardized approach to collecting and analyzing historical process data. Using OPC HDA (the OPC standard for archived data), process data can be consistently exchanged between applications and any data archive. This design also ensures enterprise-wide interoperability, as all key vendors support this industrial standard, allowing seamless integration across different systems.

Energy monitoring devices and reporting tools are increasingly being used to meet regulatory requirements. Matrikon OPC Connectivity drivers help clients integrate their current technologies with energy monitoring devices and reporting systems. This offers a fast, easy, and cost-effective way to access the necessary data.
