Suitability: Designed for projects using any battery system that does not provide a local or site controller combined with any PCS.

Fractal EMS’s scope:

  • EMS Hardware: Fractal provides the hardware for FNEs, controllers (unit, site, optional MPC), local server, networking equipment, RTACs, UPS, I/O relays, fiber patch panels, and more.
  • Networking: Fractal designs, procures, installs, configures, and tests all the networking equipment necessary to meet project and cybersecurity requirements.
  • Communications: Fractal designs (IP schema), procures, installs, and configures (VLAN) all communication.
  • SCADA: Fractal designs, procures, installs, and configures the RTACs necessary to communicate off-site (to Utility, TSP, QSE, and ISO) and on-site (to meters, transformers, and breakers), including coordinating the points list for the SCADA equipment.
  • Integration: Fractal provides equipment driver development, control narrative, design packages, integration, and troubleshooting.
  • Commissioning: Fractal performs unit-level commissioning, site acceptance testing, and ISO/utility performance testing.

Suitability: Designed for projects using a battery container and PCS that is pre-integrated with a local controller.

Although the OEM provides a local controller, Fractal still provides a unit controller and maintains the majority of the EMS scope. Fractal EMS provides:

  • EMS Hardware: Fractal provides the hardware for FNEs, controllers (unit, site, optional MPC), local server, networking equipment, RTACs, UPS, I/O relays, fiber patch panels, and more.
  • Networking: Fractal designs, procures, installs, configures, and tests all the networking equipment necessary to meet project and cybersecurity requirements.
  • Communications: Fractal designs (IP schema), procures, installs, and configures (VLAN) most of the communication (OEM provides unit-level communications).
  • SCADA: Fractal designs, procures, installs, and configures the RTACs necessary to communicate off-site (to Utility, TSP, QSE, and ISO) and on-site (to meters, transformers, and breakers), including coordinating the points list for the SCADA equipment.
  • Integration: Fractal provides equipment driver development, control narrative, design packages, integration, and troubleshooting.
  • Commissioning: Fractal performs unit-level commissioning, site acceptance testing, and ISO/utility performance testing.
  • HMI: Fractal provides local and remote HMIs with dashboards, historians, performance reports, analytics, and scheduling. The Fractal historian captures the OEM data points through the OEM local controller.
  • O&M: Fractal provides options for 24/7 monitoring and bid optimization services.

Select from any brand of Containerized Battery + PCS supplier to include: Sungrow, LSES, Clou Electronics, etc.

Suitability: Designed for projects using a battery system that is pre-integrated with a site controller.

Due to the OEM-provided site controller, Fractal does not provide unit-level (inverter, batteries, thermal management, and fire system) or site-level communication and coordination. Fractal issues a site-level power command using an MPC. The OEM’s site controller decides how to distribute power between the units. Fractal EMS provides:

  • EMS Hardware: Fractal provides the equipment for FNEs, MPC controllers, local server, communication devices, networking equipment, RTACs, UPS, I/O relays, fiber patch panels, and more.
  • Networking: Fractal designs, procures, installs, configures, and tests all the networking equipment necessary to meet project and cybersecurity requirements.
  • Communications: Fractal designs (IP schema), procures, installs, and configures (VLAN) all communication.
  • SCADA: Fractal designs, procures, installs, and configures the RTACs necessary to communicate off-site (to Utility, TSP, QSE, and ISO) and on-site (to meters, transformers, and breakers), including coordinating the points list for the SCADA equipment.
  • Integration: Fractal provides equipment driver development, control narrative, design packages, integration, and troubleshooting.
  • Commissioning: Fractal performs unit-level commissioning, site acceptance testing, and ISO/utility performance testing.
  • HMI: Fractal provides local and remote HMIs with dashboards, historians, performance reports, analytics, and scheduling. The Fractal historian captures the OEM data points through the OEM site controller.
  • O&M: Fractal provides options for 24/7 monitoring and bid optimization services.
