Principle of AzElCon LU

Explanation AzElCon LU  Functions according to process flow chart - Software monitoring of motors …. -  Current protection control of booth motors  Radio Frequency transmitter & receiver to build a self learning network  Collect weather data to transmit to AzElCon CU (no wires to central unit!)  External connection only for current supply  minimal cabling costs  Simple assemble & maintenance: only one electronic box  Operation also possible stand alone without AzElCon CU

Objectives & Benefits  Low costs - Cabling on a very small scale - RF Communication (no wires, no cables) - Hardly any wires to meteorological station  Flexibility - Operation with or without central unit AzElCon CU - No limited amount of local units AzElCon LU - Quick assembly – only one component - Optional possibility to communicate with power inverter  Smoothing of power usage - Free scalable shifted switching of each AzElCon LU

Principle AzElCon CU (central unit)

Explanation the central unit AzElCon CU  Connection - Data for meteorological station from local units - Literally unlimited number of AzElCon LU accessible (privat network)  Preface - Redundant design - No rotating components - Industrial housing - Regulating and control of local units AzElCon LU - Supplies AzElCon CU monitoring - Internetconnection (for mobil phone and landline?)  User surface in multilangual incl. three-level authority concept  Windows Embedded System  Database SQL Server  Specification control function  Option: Automatic messaging (SMS, Email,…)

Principle of AzElCon CU – Monitor

Explanation AzElCon CU – Monitor  General: Redundant control system without rotating pieces,… - - Windows OS - Accessible via internet  Database with standardized datamodel  Standard evaluation (3 kinds)  User surface  Three levels for authority concept  Accessibility for remote control  Specification for graphical visualisation [based on business studies]  Additional options (with costs) - Special customer demands - Analysis, Regulatory reporting,… - - Multidimensional tools for analyzing

AzElCon ISLAND :Offgrid Energy Solution dream the independence AzElCon ISLAND 2013

Topics  Requirements - Independence - Power generation - Self contained power inverter - Conventional power inverter - Storage of generated power  Basics: AzElCon LU - Electronic technology - Sensor technology  Software - Firmware - AzElCon PARC

Energy supply conventional way

Energy supply: Solar Energy Off grid AzElConisland

AzElCon ISLAND : Components L1 L2 L3 Cooling, Heating pump H 2 O Acculmulators MPPT Charger

AzElCon ISLAND : Integration

AzElCon ISLAND : main functions  Bidirectional power inverter - Synchronisation of grid and clusters  Battery power inverter & Battery charger - Intelligent battery management - Registration of SOC (state of charge) - Deep discharge protection - Battery diagnostics  Management of generator - If required, - Dependance upon „sun - devoted“  (Option) feeding power into the public grid  Load shedding  Time controlled operation

AzElCon ISLAND : Scalable  Power generation - from 10 KW to x MW - Power management - Charging control - Direct supply  DC/DC Charging - Scalable - Starting with 60 KW it is to use a cluster system  accumulator capacity - Free scalable - Individual dimension

AzElCon ISLAND : Features of power…  ..generation - Parallel operation of power generation and handling of consumer load - Take over of power is guaranteed, i.e. - Excess energy will be destroyed - Unneeded power will be avoided in first place  ..storing - Operating of the AzElCon PARC must be ensured at any given time - Storing is adjusted to the intended demand of energy. - Currently stored energy is known by the system.  ..forecast - Approximation of available energy and - when indicated - a preventive shutdown of consumer load could be implemented as an option.
