Q&A Summary

What is the SEL protocol mentioned in the architecture block diagram?

On the project presented by George (Protasis), did zenon controller control the energy modules directly or they relied on the BESS supplier BMS in between?

What are the options available to link higher systems, for example VPP or demand response?

Do you have standard methodology / hierarchies for client - server communication with zenon? In cases, such as PMS architecture with / without main & standby computers at client & server location?

The Fixed Control Mode by Time in day, how can the operator create control profiles that are different during holiday, or change to cycle of 30min instead of 1 hour?

Please explain about the SEL controller and it's function within the system

Any specific requirements for inverters or BESS components to be compatible with zenon EE?

The graph shown for BESS frequency response was simulated or a real capture?

How much of this application is custom code?

What is your view for further integration of IEC 61850 directly into the BESS control, in contrast to Modbus TCP?

Which IEC standard is used for BESS? Do we have anything similar to UL9540?

Which device reads the CTs & VTs? SEL controller? Is this controller taking the decision to dispatch the commands to the BESS? What is the timing response?

What kind of energy protocol did you use in this example?

Are you using SNMP protocol for device information?

Do you also plan to connect with energy trading platforms?

Is there any support for IEC 61850-90-9 in the BESS application?

How is the capacity of the BESS size determined? From the grid or client? What is the general approach?

Did COPA-DATA make any collaboration with inverter manufacturers for PV systems?

Did you (or are planning to) develop a library of control and interface logic in zenon to ensure native integration with existing BMS (battery controller) on the market, taking into account functionalities like temperature monitoring, power control?

What is the role of SCADA in managing fast control loop of battery systems?

Were there any performance issues on TCP/IP network if you are acquiring data from each module of the battery Cell Voltage and Cell temperature, since many BMUs offer large amounts of data?

What was the protocol for exchanging data from the batteries?

How do you prevent islanding when you have wind power generation connected to the same busbar as the BESS when the incoming/outgoing bay is down?

How is the measured temperature of the of the container related to the temperature of each battery module?

What are the minimum requirements for a battery bank to be compatible with zenon?
