ITS Energy Controller (PPC/EMS) is our in-house control platform for renewable power plants, battery energy storage (BESS) and microgrids. It measures at the point of connection and coordinates inverters, PCS, generators and breakers in real time – so the plant follows dispatch orders and grid-code requirements, while the owner gets the most out of every kilowatt-hour.

Power Plant Controller (PPC)
For solar and wind farms connected to the transmission and distribution grid.
- Receives active and reactive power (P/Q) setpoints from dispatch centers
- Controls reactive power, voltage and power factor at the point of interconnection
- Limits the rate of change of power (ramp rate)
- Frequency response
- Complies with EVN grid connection requirements
Energy Management System (EMS)
For microgrids, industrial sites and BESS – on-grid or islanded.
- Zero export (anti-reverse power) to the grid
- Self-consumption optimization
- Energy time-shifting based on time-of-use tariffs
- Peak shaving (optional)
- Automatic islanding and resynchronization with the grid
- Black start from BESS
- Diesel generator control
- Three-stage load shedding
- Monitoring and safety functions
