Solar container communication station EMS Safety Production Operation Specifications

What is a battery energy storage system (EMS)?

The primary function of the EMS will be to dispatch real and reactive power from the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) based on signals or schedules issued by the system operators or the Main Plant Controller (MPC). The EMS will be designed to provide for automatic, unattended operation of the BESS equipment.

What is EMS communication?

EMS communication refers to the exchange of data and instructions between the Energy Management System and various components within a BESS container. The EMS serves as the central intelligence hub, orchestrating the operation of batteries, inverters, monitoring devices, and other subsystems to achieve optimal performance objectives.

How does an EMS communicate with a power conversion system (PCS)?

The EMS will communicate directly with the battery containers and Power Conversion System (PCS). The EMS will receive signals from the site SCADA systems, including Substation RTAC, TSO Equipment, MISO Meters Equipment, Owner provided equipment, MPC, and will monitor and send control signals as necessary to operate the BESS equipment.

What is Energy Management System (EMS)?

Usually, it is provided by the PCS manufac- turer. •EMS:Energy Management System. The Energy Management System uses and controls all the en- ergy resources (solar, wind, load, grid, BESS, EV charger) to optimize the energy consumption. An illustrative overview of those components can be found below.
