operations and maintenance

Our top of the line SCADA System will track and monitor your system for life

Every solar facility requires expert maintenance and surveillance to ensure system lifetime efficiency. This is why BaseCAMP engineers utilize the innovative SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) System, which provides real-time monitoring and information on the entire solar system. This can include weather tracking, camera systems, cybersecurity protection, and more. Our system also offers full-scale integration of all project assets such as meters, trackers, panels, inverters, combiner boxes, switchyards, and all other components of our clients’ project.

The SCADA system monitors data from all of these integrated assets and provides actionable information to determine whether or not solar plant equipment is performing as expected, identifying offline and malfunctioning equipment. Then, our dedicated system operators and performance engineers analyze that data to determine when to deploy technicians to resolve any issues.

Our OSHA and NAPCEP certified technicians have years of experience around the world and extensive PV installation training. They are available 24/7 for onsite service when needed.

scada advantages

Improvement in Data Quality

The implementation of SCADA in renewable energy systems greatly improves the stability and consistency of data acquisition with the help of built-in redundancy and the use of backup systems.

Fault & Under-performance Detection

The alarms integrated with the SCADA system efficiently and quickly diagnose the nature of any problem facilitating remote troubleshooting. Furthermore, the timely and accurate analysis of the alarms enables remote adjustments, actions and corrections to prevent any escalated issues.

Weather Forecasting

Weather forecasting plays an important role in the management of renewable energy systems - especially in solar PV. SCADA can significantly improve the accuracy of short-term forecasts by incorporating the actual availability of the asset into the forecasted values.

Data Visualization

User-friendly graphical interface and data visualization are salient features of modern monitoring and supervising software. SCADA is up-to-the-mark in data visualization by providing dynamic dashboards, trending of the parameters, and self-explanatory mimic diagrams. This helps the operator to perform effectively and make decisions both from a strategic point of view.
