Today, vast software solutions are available for managing traditional PV solar or wind farms, but there is nothing on the market that addresses more complicated and specific needs of CSP. All known CSP plants run and operate on custom designed software solutions specific to their needs with specific hardware used. It’s very difficult to integrate new or updated sensors, controllers, pumps, or other 3rd party equipment.

SolarSpace is developing an E-Management Platform (EMP) to run, manage, and optimize trackers and CSP farms. The heart and brains of the CSP Farm, with over 25,000 lines of code, it brings together all the hardware into one ecosystem and gives users full control over them with User Defined and Customized Automation Rules or Manual Control when needed. It is an All-in-One suite, incorporates various Software Algorithms, Website, Portal and an App. Our proprietary API allows seamless integration of any 3rd party IoT hardware and sensors into our platform.

EMP is fully cloud-based platform, utilizing the latest developments in cloud infrastructure. It is written in JAVA programing language using latest Spring IOC/MVC framework, Relational Database Management System (RDBMS), and Time Series Database Management System (TSDB) capable of consuming millions of records. EMP utilizes AWS IoT Core that allows for real-time communication between stack of components. The tracker sensors and controls are built on low latency IoT specific pub/sub (MQTT) architecture.

Our proprietary Smart Tracker Command (STC) algorithm, optimizes tracker positioning and performance in real-time. It’s capable of reacting to various disastrous events, performs remediation operations, and automates disaster recovery functionality, supporting frontline communities most severely affected by climate-related disasters.

Predefined Automation Rules, Start-Up and Shut-Down Sequences, Disaster Recovery, and Business Continuity functionalities are further enhanced with ability for user-defined Custom Automation Rules. Users are able to define any scenario using “if-this then-that” logic based on any sensor readings or outside parameters (weather, time, etc).

E-Management Platform will simplify integration and management of new or existing Solar Farms and CSP Plants. By design, it’s modular, extendable, and easy to integrate new or updated sensors, controllers, pumps, or other 3^rd party equipment.
