Integration of SCADA services in cross-infrastructure holistic tests of cyber-physical energy systems (1905.06008v1)

Abstract: Cyber-Physical Energy System, due to its multi-domain nature, requires a holistic validation methodology, which may involve the integration of assets and expertise from various research infrastructures. In this paper, the integration of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition services to cross-infrastructure experiment is proposed. The method requires a high degree of interoperability among the participating partners and can be applied to extend the capacity as well as the degree of realism of advanced validation method such as co-simulation, remote hardware-in-the-loop or hybrid simulation. The proposed method is applied to a case study of multi-agent system based control for islanded microgrid where real devices from one platform is integrated to real-time simulation and control platform in a distanced infrastructure, in a holistic experimental implementation.
