“…The TASE.2 protocol is already widely used to exchange data between control centers and power plants in the distribution power grid [3,4]. Hence, in this paper, we propose a newly designed TASE.2 data generator that can be used for conformity, performance, or various attacks vulnerability testings.…”

Recent developments in massive machine-type communication (mMTC) scenarios have given rise to never-seen requirements, which triggered the Industry 4.0 revolution. The new scenarios bring even more pressure to comply with the reliability and communication security and enable flawless functionality of the critical infrastructure, e.g., smart grid infrastructure. We discuss typical network grid architecture, communication strategies, and methods for building scalable and high-speed data processing and storage platform. This paper focuses on the data transmissions using the sets of standards IEC 60870-6 (ICCP/TASE.2). The main goal is to introduce the TASE.2 traffic generator and the data collection back-end with the implemented load balancing functionality to understand the limits of current protocols used in the smart grids. To this end, the assessment framework enabling generating and collecting TASE.2 communication with long-term data storage providing high availability and load balancing capabilities was developed. The designed proof-of-concept supports complete cryptographic security and allows users to perform the complex testing and verification of the TASE.2 network nodes configuration. Implemented components were tested in a cloud-based Microsoft Azure environment in four geographically separated locations. The findings from the testing indicate the high performance and scalability of the proposed platform, allowing the proposed generator to be also used for high-speed load testing purposes. The load-balancing performance shows the CPU usage of the load-balancer below 15% while processing 5000 messages per second. This makes it possible to achieve up to a 7-fold improvement of performance resulting in processing up to 35,000 messages per second.

“…Connecting control room software to other systems or applications is often very difficult, especially for security reasons [14] [15] [16]. Adding extension modules for control room software or updating this with new functionalities for innovative control approaches requires much effort [17] and is in most cases only possible for the original manufacturer [18].…”

Due to the increasing share of renewable energy, new requirements are placed on control room software. Such software is often exclusive to the supplier, but other suppliers could offer new and better methods. For security reasons, external applications often have no direct data access to control room software. Such software can provide information about the power grid via a periodic file transfer in CIM (Common Information Model) format. These files are often very large, containing complete records, delivering information not always relevant to the external applications. Extracting the relevant information required by external applications can be time-consuming, thus presenting a problem for time-critical applications. This paper presents a method allowing different applications to efficiently access the relevant data from the massive data stream contained in the CIM files. This method has been tested with a distribution system operator and clearly increases performance, allowing different applications to access the relevant data.

“…A remote supervision control system in power plants based on web services was presented in [9]. In [10,11] an internet based SCADA systems for power plants taking as case study the power system in Montenegro and Cameroon were presented. Other works focused onto the use of Internet for supervising and controlling some simpler systems such as education laboratories [12], or multi-units industrial facility [2].…”

An Internet based Distributed Control System (DCS) is presented in this paper for monitoring real time data using ordinary web browser. Each DCS will be connected to the central server which will be the system web server. The proposed system is based on the three-tier client-server model. The application server is written in C#.Net. SQL database server 2005 is used for all the DCSs local database servers and for the system database server. Monitoring real time system alarm and all historical records are considered as part of the proposed system. The North Oil Refineries of Baiji (NORB) in northern Iraq is considered as a case study for the developed system. These refineries have twelve independent DCSs which are connected in a mesh network to form one system similar to an ordinary Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system
