Design of an IEC 61850 Based Safety Management System for Virtual Power Plants

In this paper, we design an IEC 61850 based safety management system for VPP (Virtual Power Plant) management. The designed system gathers a various type of information such as vibration data, noise level data, temperature value data, current fuel level data, and an oil pressure date from sensors which placed on managed VPP. The main purpose of the safety management system is to detect the risk of a VPP through the gathered information for the stability of the system. This safety management system is designed to receive data based on IEC 61850 MMS protocols in order to manage the various VPP.
