The solar farm monitoring and control systems market research delivers current market analysis and technology forecast. It is available in multiple editions including worldwide, all regions, and most major countries.
Solar Farm Monitoring and Control Market Growth Driven by Clean Energy Projects and Sustainability
ARC Advisory Group research reveals continued strong growth in the market for solar farm monitoring and control systems (SMC). SMCs are primarily comprised of solar inverters, SCADA, and string monitoring units. Control and monitoring systems are essential for the reliable, efficient, and safe functioning of solar PV farms. With advanced control algorithms and sensors, solar farm monitoring and control systems help maximize power generation, reduce loads on solar photovoltaic panels, and enable seamless integration with the electrical grid. By enhancing efficiency and reliability, these systems contribute to the widespread adoption of solar energy as a sustainable and clean power source.
Solar Farm Monitoring and Control Systems Strategic Issues
In addition to providing a five-year market forecast, the solar farm monitoring and control systems market research report provides detailed, quantitative current market data and addresses key strategic issues as follows.
Innovative Software Platforms
Innovative software platforms help operators reduce maintenance costs and maximize the energy production of solar farms.
Help to Maintain Safety of Solar PV Farms
The Solar Farm Monitoring and Control Systems market is adopting various control strategies to boost solar PV performance. Remote monitoring is becoming increasingly mainstream to improve solar performance. Cutting-edge diagnostics and predictive maintenance tools are leveraging the advantages of the integration of advanced SMC systems to maximize energy production and improve safety.
Importance of Remote Access
Virtually every grid-connected machine needs to have remote access to disconnect, based on grid operator requests, but should also allow remote diagnostics and program updates without climbing into the nacelle.
Cybersecurity Requirements
End users should specify cybersecurity requirements that are consistent with IT support capability and cybersecurity standards such as IEEE 1686-2007 and NERC CIP 002-009. Assessing the security of new system components is a challenge. Users trust that manufacturers have developed processes to ensure cybersecurity in hardware and software. Independent third-party testing and/or auditing can help validate this trust. Purchasing products from companies that have certified compliance to recognized industrial cybersecurity standards is both prudent and a recommended best practice.
ARC’s model breaks cybersecurity into a set of steps that incrementally reduce cyber risks. Each step addresses a specific, easily understandable security issue such as securing individual devices, defending plants from external attacks, containing malware that may still get into a control system, monitoring systems for suspicious activity, and actively managing sophisticated threats and cyber incidents. Each step has an associated set of actions and technologies that can be used to accomplish its goals. The model also shows the human resources and tools required to sustain and utilize technology investments effectively.
