Monitoring and controlling renewable power transfer to the National Grid(08/11/2011)
Meeting the growing demand for green energy from solar panel and wind turbine generators, Scarborough based Control & Power Systems Ltd (CPS) has developed a control panel for monitoring power transfer to the National Grid. The new system provides G59/2 protection, which is a legal requirement for those involved in providing a feed from renewables in excess of 16A. Those supplying power to the grid must monitor production and automatically isolate power in the event of abnormal grid conditions.
