With the latest update to the Smart Power Plant Controller (SPPC), control methods have been extended specifically for use in the United States to meet appliciable US grid requirements.

The SPPC offers new support of closed-loop voltage control, compensation of line losses for voltage control with long distances between park controller and transfer point, as well as the U(Q) characteristic. Likewise, active power and reactive power can be limited in the event of control deviations.

With MATLAB® Simulink the SPPC already supports a high-performance simulation environment. Moreover, it is now possible to carry out simulation and analysis with the established PowerFactory software from DIgSilent and PSCAD. Generic functional mock-up unit models (FMUs) can also be used in the simulation environments.

The new functionalities have been supplemented in the commissioning visualization and monitoring visualization. Effective immediately: the SPPC can be fully integrated into Bachmann's Wind Power SCADA.
