Field-Proven Functionalities

Autonomous & Adaptive Microgrid Control

Employed across hybrid microgrids, the Adaptive MGCS balances multi-generation assets, storage systems, and critical loads through proprietary supervisory algorithms.

Supervisory Energy & SoC Management

Intelligently manages state-of-charge (SoC) for battery energy storage systems (BESS) while balancing real-time feeder demand.

Synchronous Generator Dispatch

Optimizes diesel and gas generator start/stop sequences to minimize fuel consumption and operating hours.

Grid-Forming Transitions & Black Start

Coordinates smooth islanding transitions and black-start protocols to restore power during major microgrid events.

AI-Based Adaptive Controls

Automatically adjusts control parameters in response to dynamic load changes, resource variability, or system upgrades.

Collector Line Loss Recovery

Incorporates real-time collector feeder loss calculations to optimize renewable power injection at the point of interconnection.

SiL & HiL Bankable Validation

De-risks field commissioning through software-in-the-loop and OPAL-RT hardware-in-the-loop real-time simulation.

Application Areas

Versatile Power & Energy Objectives

Addressing microgrid requirements across remote off-grid communities, industrial mine sites, and behind-the-meter generation assets.

Remote Communities

Replaces high-cost diesel generation with solar, wind, and battery storage systems while ensuring 100% grid stability and power quality.

Off-Grid Resiliency

Mining & Quarries

Manages high-impact pulse loads, heavy rock crushers, and conveyor drives without causing voltage sags or tripping local generator banks.

Heavy Load Management

Behind-the-Meter DERs

Executes peak shaving, demand-side management, and seamless grid-connected to islanded transitions for commercial facilities.
