Energy Management

7.1 Principles of Energy Management

Integration into IT networks A modern network control system acting as an energy management system ts harmoniously into the IT networks and the existing IT landscape of the utility (g. 7.1-19). The network control system is one of many systems in the IT network of the utility that interacts with other systems. The following are some of the points dened for the IT integration process: Access to the system by intranet users, e.g., from the back ofce: Conguration for the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Integration of the corporate network, such as for e-mail notication Protected area for the application and SCADA Servers TCP/IP-based communication to substations or to adjoining control centers Conguration of switches/routers Password protection and requirements. Fig. 7.1-20 shows an example of the integration of the network control system in the IT network of the utility. It forms the basis for further planning with respect to the tasks required during IT integration in the heterogeneous system landscapes of the utility.
