Power Plant Security
Security Solutions
Grid Cloud Solutions offers engineering and installation services for the implementation of security systems within electrical balance of plant applications of power generation facilities. We secure third party security systems based on the degree of security desired within the perimeter of the power facility. As a single source integrator we will ensure for example that video monitoring of crucial locations of your power plant are integrated into your plant security and/or plant management control room.
By allowing Grid Cloud Solutions to integrate your security system, we will ensure that service and maintenance issues of the security system are well thought out and properly implemented ensuring a safe power generation environment within your plant.
In addition to protecting against theft and vandalism, a properly designed security system will meet/exceed personal safety standards, potentially reducing insurance premiums, while insuring uninterrupted power production for many years to come – resulting in maximum ROI.
Security For Photovoltaic Power Stations
Certified and recognized security for photovoltaic power stations with standardized mechanical basic fence incidents are localized with an accuracy of 3m. Worldwide video verification may be incorporated included via satellite transmission. Nuisance and unwanted alarms are virtually non existent. Alarms are localized, graphically displayed, stored and transmitted to an internal/external control room.
Advantages include; Low energy consumption due to stand-by function; Reduction of human resources costs (security services); Uninterruptible power supply standardized secures stand-by and operation during power outages and current fluctuation; Centralize of multiple solar parks to a single higher level management system (avoidance of isolated applications); Secure interface communication of different technologies; Protects from theft and vandalism; Station's efficiency is secured;
Reduced insurance costs.
Mechanical Fence System
The PvGrid cable system includes data transmission and power supply components. PvGrid communicates with the management system and the video soft- and hardware via BUS-based modules. As soon as an intruder tries to conquer the PvGrid-equipped mechanical fence system, an alarm ist triggered immediately.
- cutting of the fence fabric
- scaling of the fence
- lifting up the fence
- destruction of the fence
This alarm is localized with a precision of and transmitted by PvGrid protocol via video
soft- and hardware.
Blocking Bollards
The blocking bollard functions as a boundary / barrier for driveways, parking and loading zones, etc. Unwanted and / or unlawful usage of these zones as well as accessing or leaving them can thus be prevented.
Burglar Alarm Systems
An alarm event can trigger an optical and / or acoustic alarm. This alarm can be transmitted via GSM and / or satellite, if desired. Main components:
- motion detectors
- magnetic contacts
- sirens and flashlights
Multi-Purpose Monitoring Solutions
Grid Cloud combines its offered monitoring solutions to track optimal energy output levels of RE parks , while simultaneously monitoring security detection devices - enabling convenience while reducing operating costs, maximizing ROI’s and minimizing potential risks.
Microwave Technology
Grid Cloud’s Microwave solution creates a three dimensional detection field. Penetration of the detection field triggers an alarm, which is verified and recorded via video hardware and software.
Video Technology
Multiple cameras which are installed at fixed distances record incidences event-driven. These are stored in a central location and / or transmitted to the control room. The video system offers excellent images, that can be used to identify the perpetrator. At night the system can be optionally supported by white light or infrared.
Security Monitoring to Go
We provide a variety of on-the-go security and energy monitoring solutions, including a wireless energy display, a Web-based energy portal, and cell phone apps that can help energy producers maintain 100% control over their energy systems.
