Power Plant Controllers with WAGO Power Plant Control

Power plant controllers help power plants achieve grid-compatible feed-in management at the grid connection point (GCP).

WAGO Power Plant Control allows plant operators and system integrators to meet the requirements for these controllers that are set on the grid side – flexibly and reliably. The solution is certified per VDE-AR-N 4110 and 4120.

Why are certified power plant controllers necessary?

The percentage of renewable energy in the power grid is increasing, and we want this increase to continue – but without endangering the stability of the grid. For this reason, the technical connection rules (TCRs) for decentralized power plants have been made tightened. A central element of this is a power plant controller, which must have a corresponding component certificate. With WAGO Power Plant Control, that’s not a problem.

The Benefits for You:

  • Maximum flexibility

  • Long-term global availability

  • Future viability

  • TÜV-certified

  • High cybersecurity

  • Custom implementation options

Here’s How the WAGO Solution Works

The power plant controller forms the interface between the plant and the power supplier, the grid operator the direct marketer, in order to allow the control power to be sold on the exchange, for example. In the process, it regulates the setpoint values for active and/or reactive power at the grid connection point (GCP). It compares these setpoints to the measured actual values at the GCP and communicates the calculated control variable to the generating systems. With the help of the power plant controller, the grid operator can control the plant feed-in via specified characteristics on the generator side.

Your Path with WAGO to Grid-Compliant
Plant Connection and Operation

WAGO lets you choose your path to grid-compliant plant connection and operation with a certified power plant controller. Either we will support you in assembling the necessary components, or you can take advantage of our network of system integrators and hire them for the implementation service.
