Development of a data acquisition system for remote monitoring of renewable energy systems

摘要

The widespread application of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) requires the use of data acquisition units both for monitoring system operation and control of its operation. In this paper, the development of a data acquisition system for remote monitoring and control of RES plants is presented. It is based on the Client/Server architecture and it does not require the physical connection of the monitored systems to the data collection server. This feature is essential in RES plants since they are usually installed in inaccessible areas. The measured parameters are available on-line over the Internet to any user.
