A day in the life of a utility scale solar farm project

A day in the life of a utility scale solar farm project - today, it's the network. Every balance of plant SCADA and Control System is utterly reliant on a secure, properly segregated, high speed comms network - explicitly designed for closed loop control across a large footprint. Even 200ms is a long time when you're controlling hundreds of MW/MVAr on the NEM.

As the energy transformation continues and we move to a more distributed grid, the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) will need our industry to keep raising the bar on comms so they can do their job of managing our electricity network with reliable forecasting, trusting we will do what we say, with greater certainty.

AZZO fully bench tests every project design in a simulated network to be sure of reliable and redundant communications architectures which the O&M team and AEMO can rely on in production. It's like the nervous system in the human body - literally the backbone of the asset.
