Run it all as one plant with Ingro EMS

Ingro EMS reads breaker states and relay trips, so it knows which sources are connected before it sends a setpoint, and it never asks a battery to export into a feeder that protection has opened.

Ingro EMS is a made-in-India battery energy management system: one controller on site that runs battery storage, solar, diesel and the grid against your tariff, with a console and reports you can watch on a screen or your phone. It talks to equipment over open protocols such as Modbus TCP/RTU, CAN, IEC 61850 and IEC 60870-5-104, so it is not tied to any one brand on this list.

Questions

1 questions

Where export to the grid is not allowed, a reverse power relay trips the connection if power starts to flow out, as a backstop to the controller that normally prevents it.
