EMS SCADA System

Project Summary

An EMS SCADA System integrates real-time monitoring of power grid operations. It combines Energy Management Systems (EMS) with SCADA to provide utilities with tools to supervise, analyze, and optimize electrical networks.

The system collects data from various Energy Meter, enabling operators to monitor voltage levels, frequencies, and power flows. EMS SCADA supports critical functions such as load balancing, fault detection, and energy forecasting, ensuring reliable and efficient power distribution across the plant.
