“…Several papers mentioned the integration of the Raspberry Pi with Arduino [22, 23]. The development of a low-cost SCADA system for a stand-alone photovoltaic system is presented in [24], where the authors measured environmental variables and power generation from the photovoltaic system using an Arduino UNO development board. The cost of development reported is as low as $ 62.…”

“…This paper presents the design and implementation of a low-cost SCADA system applied to an experimental microgrid. The system presented is more complicated than considered in [24] and [25] because it integrates wireless control and monitoring for several renewable energy sources and an energy storage system. The proposed system is an alternative for commercial SCADA and a solution for modular affordable monitoring and control systems for small to medium scale applications in renewable energy laboratories.…”

This paper presents the design and implementation of a low-cost Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system based on a Web interface to be applied to a Hybrid Renewable Energy System (HRES) microgrid. This development will provide a reliable and low-cost control and data acquisition systems for the Renewable Energy Laboratory at Universitat Politècnica de València (LabDER-UPV) in Spain, oriented to the research on microgrid stability and energy generation. The developed low-cost SCADA operates on a microgrid that incorporates a photovoltaic array, a wind turbine, a biomass gasification plant and a battery bank as an energy storage system. Sensors and power meters for electrical parameters, such as voltage, current, frequency, power factor, power generation, and energy consumption, were processed digitally and integrated into Arduino-based devices. A master device on a Raspberry-PI board was set up to send all this information to a local database (DB), and a MySQL Web-DB linked to a Web SCADA interface, programmed in HTML5. The communications protocols include TCP/IP, I2C, SPI, and Serial communication; Arduino-based slave devices communicate with the master Raspberry-PI using NRF24L01 wireless radio frequency transceivers. Finally, a comparison between a standard SCADA against the developed Web-based SCADA system is carried out. The results of the operative tests and the cost comparison of the own-designed developed Web-SCADA system prove its reliability and low-cost, on average an 86% cheaper than a standard brandmark solution, for controlling, monitoring and data logging information, as well as for local and remote operation system when applied to the HRES microgrid testbed.

System SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) merupakan sebuah system yang dibuat untuk pengambilan data, menyimpannya, analisa dan juga untuk mengendalikan suatu plant/system yang umumnya dilakukan secara jarak jauh. Untuk meningkatkan efisiensi, saat ini, system SCADA telah dipakai secara luas dalam berbagai bidang industry, seperti manufaktur, pembangkit listrik, oil & gas, telekomunikasi dan transportasi. Dalam perkembangannya, system ini tidak hanya terkoneksi secara intern saja, bahkan terkoneksi dengan internet untuk komunikasi antar komponennya maupun pengambilan informasi data sebagai bagian dari pendukung keputusan. Dengan terkoneksinya dengan system ekstern dalam hal ini internet, maka keamanan informasi system SCADA ini akan menjadi sangat rentan. Oleh karena itu, identifikasi terhadap resiko keamanan yang mungkin saja terjadi untuk memperoleh gambaran yang lengkap status keamanan system ini menjadi sangat diperlukan. Paper ini pengaplikasikan metode operationally critical threat, asset and vulnerability evaluation (OCTAVE) allegro untuk meng-asses resiko keamanan dari system SCADA. Metode ini focus pada asset informasi dan membandingkan wadah informasi yang berbeda-beda seperti database, kertas fisik dan manusia. Tujuan studi ini adalah untuk menyoroti berbagai kerentanan, resiko serta mengusulkan pendekatan mitigasi resiko yang teridentifikasi dari keamanan system SCADA. Penelitian ini diharapkan bisa digunakan sebagai dasar untuk meningkatkan keamanan system SCADA. Kata Kunci SCADA, OCTAVE Allegro, Informasi, Resiko Keamanan.

Due to global warming, governments around the world are focusing on renewable energy as the main source of energy. Gulf countries in particular, are focusing on solar energy due to its abundance and the gulf geolocation that allows the installation of ambitious solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems and replace conventional power plants. In order to maximize energy extraction from the sun, solar power operators need to constantly monitor key solar PV parameters such as panel temperature, solar irradiation, voltage and current in order to detect abnormalities in the PV system operation and take the necessary actions to keep the PV system performance at its maximum. However, monitoring such parameters on-site is exhausting and expensive. Moreover, remote monitoring for solar PV systems is a more attractive solution once the data collection, processing and transmission become faster and less expensive. This paper describes the design of a low-cost remote monitoring system intended for off-grid solar PV systems. The designed remote monitoring system uses a combination of an Arduino Uno Wi-Fi demilitarized zone (DMZ) communication system with router-configured network sensors calibrated to fulfill the IEC-61,724 standards and it provides meteorological and electrical measurements with an error of 2% or less. There are four primary features of the proposed monitoring system. First, it combines the Arduino Uno Wi-Fi with a DMZ configuration in the router. Second, it complies with the minimum current, voltage, power, and PV-module temperature values set by the IEC-61,724 in such a way that the average error does not exceed the 4% threshold. Third, it provides an accuracy level of 98% for the meteorological and electrical parameters. This level of accuracy exceeds that of commercial data logging equipment. Finally, its total cost is less than $100, which is less than that of available commercial solar PV monitoring systems. Additional features include the ability to select the number of processed measurements per hour and innovative processing, display, and access schemes. These features enable the accessibility of the data from mobile phones and computers within the campus for teaching and experimentation purposes.
