PMS · Power Management System

PMS: power management for solar and thermal generation.

Power Management Systems to coordinate solar and thermal generation and manage power according to demand and operating conditions.

Conceptual screen with simulated data: three generators on an isolated bus with available reserve, load sharing, unit status and operating strategy.

01 / Capabilities

Engineering around your operation.

Scope is defined around the needs, equipment and conditions of each project.

  • Source coordination

    Integration of solar generation with existing generators, including islanded applications.

  • Dynamic solar curtailment

    Calculation of curtailment setpoints to use solar generation while maintaining the defined thermal reserve.

  • Load demand

    Staged generator entry and exit with configurable priorities, thresholds and timers.

  • Synchronization & modes

    Coordination with generator control and installation operating sequences.

  • Communications

    Integration of measurements, states and setpoints according to available equipment interfaces.

  • Supervision

    An operating interface and system information for plant personnel.

02 / Solution focus

Greater integration. Better coordination.

We define operating strategies for solar–generator combinations. Control and reverse-power risk reduction are assessed against each installation’s measurements, interfaces, protection and equipment response.

Interfaces and responsibilities

What we define with you before execution.

A clear scope reduces integration risk. These points are agreed in writing at the start of the project.

  • Generators, inverters and meters involved, and their protocols.
  • Minimum thermal reserve and priority criteria.
  • Existing protection, including reverse-power protection.
  • Current operating sequences and those to be automated.
  • Supervision users and their permissions.

How we implement it

Engineering with a clear sequence.

  1. Understand

    Needs, installation and operating conditions.

  2. Develop

    Architecture, hardware and programming.

  3. Integrate and test

    Interfaces, functions and acceptance criteria.

  4. Support

    Commissioning and agreed technical support.

Support

Support continues during operation.

For solutions implemented by SIENCA, we offer remote assistance and recurring site visits within an ongoing maintenance program.

Service arrangements and coverage defined for each project.

  • Remote technical assistance.
  • Recurring site visits.
  • Ongoing maintenance program.
