Market Definition
SCADA is an automation system that monitors and controls complex systems/processes deployed in several industries. This system allows data to be gathered from field devices and processed in real time to send commands that regulate or control industrial equipment or processes. It acts as an interface between plant machinery and input devices such as sensors and actuators, which are part of SCADA system components, such as the human–machine interface (HMI) and programmable logic controller (PLC). SCADA provides plant operators with crucial data regarding industrial processes and helps them make appropriate response and control decisions. The system records and maintains all real-time data.
The SCADA in renewable energy market encompasses advanced automation solutions that facilitate real-time monitoring, control, and data management of wind, solar, and hydroelectric power assets. These systems are critical in maximizing energy output, enhancing operational efficiency, reducing downtime, and enabling seamless integration with the power grid. By leveraging a combination of hardware and software, SCADA solutions provide centralized oversight of distributed energy infrastructure, supporting data-driven decision-making, predictive maintenance, and optimized asset performance.
