Connecting stakeholders and systems across the energy market

EPEC’s integrated SCADA solution provides a single platform for coordinating asset owners, EPCs, network operators, market bodies and technology vendors across solar, wind and BESS projects. By integrating interfaces with systems including EMMS, switchroom infrastructure, OEM equipment and SCADA hardware, and aligning EPEC’s internal delivery teams, the platform enables seamless coordination between asset owners, networks, substations and plant systems.

End-to-End SCADA Solutions Across the Project Lifecycle

We deliver end-to-end SCADA solutions across the full project lifecycle, all managed in-house, from design and development through to testing, operation, and maintenance. Our systems provide real-time visibility and control of substations and balance-of-plant equipment, enabling faster response to events, reduced downtime, and more efficient asset management, helping maximise energy production and long-term returns.

Remote Monitoring & Control

Centralised Remote Monitoring and Control for Renewable Assets

Our SCADA systems help optimise the performance of your renewable energy assets by providing real-time data on various parameters for wind turbines, solar panels, and energy storage systems. This data allows operators to monitor performance remotely and make optimisations to maximise energy production and efficiency.

Real-Time Asset Visibility

Monitor wind turbines, solar arrays, and battery systems from a single centralised interface — with live status, alarms, and performance metrics at your fingertips.

Remote Operational Control

Adjust setpoints, switch equipment states, and respond to grid events remotely — reducing the need for on-site intervention and enabling faster response times.

Performance Optimisation

Use real-time and historical data to identify underperformance, tune control parameters, and maximise energy production across your fleet.

Protocol Integration

Supports DNP3, Modbus, IEC 61850, and OPC-UA — integrating with existing site infrastructure and third-party equipment.

Secure Remote Access

Encrypted connections and role-based access control ensure secure monitoring and operation from any authorised location.

Multi-Site Aggregation

Aggregate data from multiple renewable sites into a single control room view — enabling portfolio-level oversight and coordination.

Fault Detection & Diagnostics

Fault Detection, Diagnostics, and Reliability for Renewable Infrastructure

EPEC SCADA systems are equipped with advanced monitoring capabilities that can detect faults or abnormalities in renewable energy infrastructure. Early detection of issues allows for prompt maintenance and reduces downtime, ensuring a more reliable and consistent energy supply.

Early Fault Detection

Continuous monitoring of equipment parameters identifies developing faults before they cause outages — enabling proactive maintenance scheduling and reducing unplanned downtime.

Alarm Management & Escalation

Structured alarm hierarchies with configurable thresholds and escalation paths ensure the right people are notified at the right time — without alarm fatigue.

Diagnostic Event Logging

Comprehensive event and sequence-of-events logging provides the diagnostic trail needed to root-cause failures, support warranty claims, and meet compliance requirements.

Why proactive diagnostics matter

Reduce unplanned downtime

Catching faults early means maintenance can be scheduled during low-production windows — avoiding unexpected outages that impact revenue.

Extend asset lifespan

Condition-based monitoring and predictive maintenance extend the operational life of inverters, transformers, and other critical equipment.

Compliance & audit readiness

Detailed event logs and fault records support regulatory compliance reporting and provide evidence for grid operator enquiries.

Data & Reporting

Data, Reporting, and Informed Decision-Making

Generate reports and analytics from collected data to provide insights for stakeholders, regulators, and operators, supporting performance evaluation, compliance, and informed decision-making. SCADA systems also store historical data to enable energy forecasting and planning.

Automated Reporting

Generate scheduled and on-demand reports for stakeholders, regulators, and operators — covering performance, availability, curtailment, and compliance metrics.

Historical Data & Trend Analysis

Store and analyse historical operational data to predict generation patterns, identify degradation trends, and guide future infrastructure investment decisions.

Energy Forecasting & Planning

Leverage collected data to forecast energy output, optimise distribution strategies, and support long-term capacity planning across your renewable portfolio.

INVERTER MONITORING DASHBOARD

Data Historian

Time-series data storage with configurable retention policies — supporting long-term trend analysis and regulatory record-keeping.

Custom Dashboards

Role-specific views for operators, asset managers, and executives — each seeing the KPIs and visualisations most relevant to their responsibilities.

API & Integration

Export data to third-party analytics platforms, energy management systems, or market participant portals via standard APIs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s included in Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT)?

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) validates the SCADA and control system in a controlled environment against defined requirements. This includes functional testing, alarm management, interfaces, communications, and documentation.
Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) confirms correct installation and operation on site, validates integration with field devices and communications, and provides commissioning evidence to support handover to operations.

Can EPEC integrate multiple OEM systems into a single SCADA platform?

Yes. EPEC designs SCADA and control systems that integrate telemetry and control across multiple OEM subsystems. This provides unified visibility, consistent alarm management, and consolidated reporting across substations and balance-of-plant assets.

Do you deliver only HMI, or full SCADA and control systems?

EPEC delivers full SCADA and control systems. This includes system architecture, detailed design and development, control cabinet design and assembly, FAT and SAT, commissioning support, and ongoing operational support.

How does EPEC approach OT cybersecurity and SOCI compliance?

OT cybersecurity is embedded from concept design. EPEC applies risk-based controls suited to industrial environments and produces practical artefacts to support SOCI Act cybersecurity risk management requirements. Systems are designed to support AESCSF SP1 (Baseline) maturity, with a scalable foundation extendable to SP2 (Advanced) maturity.

Do you support assets after commissioning?

Yes. EPEC provides ongoing operational and aftermarket support following commissioning, including troubleshooting, system updates, reporting enhancements, and continuous improvement throughout the operational life of the asset.
