For plants larger than 100 kWp, remote control of the reactive power supply and power limitations are required in

Germany along with a confirmation of the current amount of feed-in power. In practice, each grid operator stipu-

lates its own signalization variant in the technical connection requirements (TAB). To fulfill the requirements from a

particular grid operator, Solar-Log® offers a grid company specific PM Package. This package includes hardware that

is adjusted to a company‘s remote control technology and profile file.

Smart Energy

Efficient Power Management and Optimized Consumption of Self-Produced Power

Solar-Log® is setting international standards not just in monitoring but also in energy manage-

ment of photovoltaic plants. Feed-in tariffs are being reduced, tax incentives and subsidies are

being removed, and energy prices continue to rise. Consequently, storage and optimized con-

sumption of self-produced power have become essential to meet the increasing energy needs.

Solar-Log® distinguishes itself from competing systems with its intelligent control of energy,

feed-in management, and monitoring of PV plants, as well as with the visualization and reporting

options for plant data.

The Solar-Log® energy management solutions also include intelligent heating with PV power.

Solar-Log® controls heat pumps or smart heaters and provides them with surplus PV power. This

is used to heat tap water or water in combination storage tanks.

Battery Storage Monitoring

Visualization of Battery Power – Charge and Discharge

Battery storage systems are the ideal solution to store self-produced power from a PV plant for self-consumption.

Consequently, these systems play an essential role in optimizing the consumption of self-produced power.

Visualization of self-consumption

The battery storage acts either as a generator or a power-consuming appliance in the balance view and is dis-

played accordingly.

Daily overview: The battery system is charged when there is a surplus of PV power at the plant (light green) and is used when there is not enough PV power to cover con-

sumption needs, preventing the need to purchase electricity from the grid.

EV Charging

Efficiency during Charging: Solar-Log® in Combination with EV Charging Stations

Through the combination of a photovoltaic plant, a Solar-Log® device, and a charging station, electromobility

becomes even more efficient. The interaction ensures that electric cars are always charged with the maximum

amount of available power from the photovoltaic plant. It is cost-effective and environmentally friendly at the

same time. Even when there is not enough power available from a photovoltaic plant, the Solar-Log® “Surplus/

Minimum Charge” function can be set to keep the charging process running. When additional PV surplus power

is available, your electric car will be charged beyond the defined minimum charge level. The “Surplus/Minimum

Charge” function offers the combination of reliable driving distances and cost-efficient charging.

Advantages for Plant Owners

• The charge data is recorded and concisely visualized with the Solar-Log WEB Enerest™ portal.

• The interaction of the PV plant, Solar-Log® and charging station ensures that electric cars are always charged

with the maximum amount of available power from the photovoltaic plant – cost effective and environmentally

friendly at the same time.

Effective Use of Heat Pumps

The combination of photovoltaic and heat pumps offers another potential way to optimize the consumption of

self-produced power. The basic idea is to have the heat pump use the surplus PV power. Depending on how the

heat pump is connected to the Solar-Log®, a release signal or the surplus is reported to the heat pump.

Additional Benefits for Plant Owners:

• The intelligent control of the heat pump makes it possible to optimize the use of surplus power.

• A building can be used as a heat buffer storage.

• Energy efficient buildings (i.e. energy-efficient building shell) are especially well suited for this.

• The target temperature in the rooms is then maintained by the heat pumps depending on the selected comfort

mode.

• Modern heat-pumps operate completely emission-free at their installation site: No soot, no smoke and no

wood dust pollute the air.

Solar-Log® controls heat pumps or other electrical appliances via the Smart Relay Box. The Solar-Log® Energy

Management System even communicates directly with some heat pump brands via integrated protocol.

The integration with the IDM heat pump is a good example of how Solar-Log® manages energy consumption.

The integrated Solar-Log® satellite weather forecast predicts the temperature changes in advance and allows

Solar-Log® to maximize the consumption of PV power by using the building mass as an energy buffer. If it is getting

colder, Solar-Log® starts the controlled heating of the building in advance and vice versa when the temperature

gets warmer.

Smart Energy Logics and Devices

The Solar-Log® specifically controls many different electrical appliances such as heat pumps, heating elements,

air-conditioning systems and EV charging devices. With the help of Smart Energy Logics, various conditions can

be defined for when an additional load is to be activated, for example at a certain surplus level. Different devices

can be used to physically switch on the appliances. Depending on the specific purpose, the Solar-Log® potential-

free internal relay, a Smart Plug, the Smart Relay Box or the Smart Relay Station can be used. An appliance can be

controlled via the internal relay of the Solar-Log®. The relay can switch devices with a maximum voltage of 24 volts

at a current up to 2 amps. The Smart Relay Box provides eight additional relays for the Solar-Log® to use. Up to

three appliances can be switched on and off with the Smart Relay Station; additionally, the Relay Station records

the consumption via an internal meter.

Solar-Log® Smart Relay Box

• Equipped with 8 potential-free contacts, e.g. for heat pumps (SG Ready).

• Connected to the Solar-Log® via RS485

• Well-suited in combination with load relays to control motors, pumps and ventilation and air-conditioning

systems.

• Free RS485 connection required

Appliances with line voltage and maximum power consumption of 16 amps can be directly switched with an exter-

nal power relay, the Solar-Log® Smart Relay Station. In addition to the switching, this also records the consumption

of the appliance that is switched on. For this reason, the Solar-Log® Smart Relay Station can be used as a sub-con-

sumer without any additional hardware.

Solar-Log® Smart Relay Station

• Equipped with 3 relays to directly switch loads up to 16A/230V.

• Receives a response with the consumption values from each individual relay.

Combined Heat and Power Generators (CHP)

Optimally Using the Produced Power

With the help of energy meters, the Solar-Log® can record and visualize the production from a combined heat

and power generator (CHP). Only two power meters need to be connected to the Solar-Log®. One of the meters

records the current power output and the other one the consumption.

When there is a high heat demand, the consumption of power produced by combined heat and power generators

(CHP) is optimized and the operating times are shortened in combination with intelligent electrical appliances such

as the EGO Smart Heater. This allows unprofitable grid feed-in to be avoided and the Solar-Log® can be used as a

central monitoring and control element.

Even More Advantages for Plant Owners

• Record and visualize the output generated from a combined heat and power generator (CHP) device and PV

plants.

• Avoid unprofitable grid feed-in by using the surplus to operate intelligent appliances.

• Align production and consumption times.

Daily Overview of Power Generator (CHP) and Heating Rod

• The combined heat and power generator (CHP) device is turned on depending on the current power consump-

tion situation and makes more efficient utilization of power possible, especially in the summer months.

Feed-in Management

Individual Solutions for International Requirements

Due to the increasing number of decentralized, renewable energy production plants, the require-

ments for the international power grid have changed. Previously, power grids only provided for

one-way power flows, from centralized power plants to consumers. Today, however, consumers

have become “prosumers” (producer and consumer). This has made the main task of grid opera-

tors, maintaining grid stability, more complex. Solar-Log® always provides the ideal technical solu-

tions for the various international requirements from grid operators.

Feed-in Management

Intelligent Grid Feed-in Control

Solar-Log® offers a wide range of solar PV power management solutions to meet various grid feed-in restrictions

across the globe. Solar-Log® provides grid feed-in control by monitoring building load and restricting inverter

power output. This innovative solution largely minimizes losses that result from feed-in caps proposed by grid

operators or other regulations, and offers advanced solutions for a more reliable, stable grid.

• Maximize on PV plant size while adhering to local feed-in restrictions

• Increase PV plant return on investment by shifting peak demand

• Direct PV power towards self-consumption and storage after feed-in cap is met

• Solar-Log® calculates the current power surplus and can turn appliances on/off via networked smart plugs or

smart relays to optimize self-consumption

• Control power factor, increasing reactive power

• Maintain PV plant profitability even after net metering caps have been met

Limited feed-in power

Limited Grid Feed-in

Solar-Log® measures building consumption with an integrated consumption meter. The inverters are adjusted

accordingly to ensure that grid export (the difference between the current production and consumption) does not

exceed the maximum amount specified. With the use of a consumption meter, Solar-Log® is able to control grid

feed-in by either a certain percentage of the total PV inverter power or in kW.

Zero Grid Export

In states or countries where grid feed-in is not allowed at all, Solar-Log® controls the inverters to produce just

enough power to cover the building load, resulting in zero grid export.

Managing PV Plants in the Medium Voltage

Network

Feed-in Management

Large plants often have advanced requirements. In addition to the stipulations on controlling PV plants, the

information on the actual amount of feed-in power may need to be provided. Communication with grid operators

here is usually carried out with remote control technology such as telecontrol systems. This technology makes

bi-directional communication possible. The signals are transmitted between the telecontrol system and Solar-Log®

with the PM Package. Depending on which value has to be transmitted to the grid operator, a measurement of

transformer voltage and current with the Solar-Log® Utility Meter is required.

Controlling active power and regulating reactive power represents a serious technical challenge. Grid operators

rely on various concepts here. The Solar-Log® Utility Meter is used to control voltage-dependent reactive power via

the Q(U) function and reactive power at the feeding point. Other functions such as the fixed value cos phi shift fac-

tor or performance-related cos phi functions can be implemented without additional measurements.

Operator interface for configuring PM profiles.

In contrast to simple feed-in management, a response signal with the actual amount of feed-in power is also re-

quired. That is why most grid operators deploy remote control technology with different command and response

signals. The Solar-Log® I/O Box can receive and send a wide range of signals from various grid operators. When

used with the Solar-Log® Utility Meter, measured values such as reactive power, voltage and currents are reported

back.

Modbus TCP Power Management (PM) Interface

Complex grid operator requirements can be implemented by using telecontrol systems that are directly connected

to the Solar-Log® via the TCP-based Modbus protocol. With this set up, the command signals and response signals

between the remote control technology and the Solar-Log® are relayed back and forth via the protocol without

potential-free and analog interfaces. This direct connection with remote control technology can implement com-

munication according to IEC 60870-C, 61850-5-101 and -104.

Feed-in Management with Solar-Log® Networks

The Solar-Logs can be linked together with an Ethernet connection to implement feed-in management at larger

plants. This linking over the network allows control signals from Ripple Control Receivers to be interchanged.

The grid operator’s signals are received by the Solar-Log® (master) and distributed to the connected inverters via

the additional Solar-Logs (slaves). The master can be connected to up to nine slaves in this setup. Linking the Solar-

Log® devices together over the network helps to implement complex requirements (several plant parts, feeding

points and inverters from several manufacturers).
