A case study of SCADA implementation for small electrical producers in WideQuick
(2024)Department of Automatic Control
- Abstract
- The escalating demand for electricity requires the deployment of reliable, secure, and efficient energy production methods. This master thesis explores the utilization of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems in power plants to meet these requirements. The primary objective is to investigate the specific requirements for implementing a SCADA system in the power production sector, drawing insights from a comprehensive literature review.
Building upon the literature findings, the following phase of this thesis involves assessing the feasibility of incorporating identified requirement specifications into the WideQuick software developed by Kentima AB. To ascertain this, a small-scale demonstration program will be created...

This master thesis explores the utilization of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems in power plants to meet these requirements. The primary objective is to investigate the specific requirements for implementing a SCADA system in the power production sector, drawing insights from a comprehensive literature review.
Building upon the literature findings, the following phase of this thesis involves assessing the feasibility of incorporating identified requirement specifications into the WideQuick software developed by Kentima AB. To ascertain this, a small-scale demonstration program will be created within the WideQuick environment. This demo program aims to simulate the control and supervision aspects of a small hydroelectric power plant.
The research comprises a two-fold investigation: firstly, an in-depth analysis of SCADA system requisites based on existing literature; and secondly, a practical exploration into the adaptability and functionality of the WideQuick software for SCADA implementation within a hydroelectric power plant context. By integrating theoretical insights with hands-on application, this thesis aims to contribute valuable perspectives in the use of SCADA systems in power production, and software implementation.
