With the energy turnaround, wind energy companies and their suppliers have to face the challenge regarding the integration of plants and devices into future smart grids.
The central requirements are functional safety and the ability of the components to communicate reliably. Key success factors are standardisation and compliance with the relevant standards, which must be proven by independent certification such as TÜV SÜD. Thus, standards demand risk minimisation through electronic control functions and security. The IEC 61400-25 standard defines the basic communication requirements for wind power plants. TÜV SÜD covers a wide range of services from site assessment to type certification and wind farm certification.
