Wind farm operators can now access key performance and maintenance data from their Siemens wind turbines without relying on proprietary drivers. The OPC Server for Siemens Wind Turbine Controllers from MatrikonOPC enables users throughout an enterprise to maximize their wind farms’ return on investment.
The OPC Server transfers data between the turbine controllers and HMIs, historians, and ERP systems directly – eliminating the need to rely on the iBox. This enables owners and operators to get status updates from their wind farms in order to make crucial decisions in their day-to-day maintenance and operations.
