Supervision and Data Acquisition Control (SCADA) is an industrial control system that is used in many modern industries such as energy, manufacturing, energy, water transport, etc. SCADA systems organize multiple technologies that allow you to process, collect and monitor data at the same time to send instructions to those points that transmit data. In today's world, almost anywhere SCADA systems can be observed, whether it be a sewage treatment plant, supermarkets, industries or even in your home.
SCADA systems range from simple to large configurations. Most SCADA applications use human machine interface (HMI) software that allows users to interact with machines to control devices. HMI is connected to motors, valves and many more devices.
The SCADA software receives the information of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or remote terminal units (RTUs), which in turn receive their information from the sensors or manually entered values. SCADA in an energy system is used to collect, analyze and monitor data effectively, which will potentially reduce waste and improve the efficiency of the entire system by saving time and money.
Applications of SCADA in the Energy System
As the energy system deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of energy sectors, monitoring is the main aspect in all these areas. Thus, the SCADA implementation of the power system improves the overall efficiency of the system to optimize, supervise and control the generation and transmission systems. The SCADA function in the power system network provides greater reliability and system stability for integrated network operation.
