Elipse Power Industry
Energy-intensive industries need robust supervisory control systems to manage their power assets. Any interruption to an industrial power system can force an entire production run to be reprocessed or waste large amounts of raw material, causing major financial losses. Elipse Power Industry increases the availability, quality, and reliability of the power supply, which are crucial for industries that want to run their plants more efficiently and cut losses and costs.
Elipse Power Industry is a platform with features designed for building comprehensive control centers in energy-intensive industries and plants. It centralizes operation and provides remote access to local operating points, and it supports applications that manage and control a large number of substations and communication points.
The electrical modeling tool automatically generates SCADA operating screens and lets users add and edit elements. This reduces configuration and commissioning time and makes the system safer and more reliable.
Features
- Electrical model: built on the IEC 61970 (CIM) standard through an integrated graphical interface that automatically generates single-line diagrams
- Topology Processor: animates single-line diagrams automatically from the electrical model, with no programming required
- Tag Browser: imports tags directly from IEDs via IEC 61850, sharply reducing errors and configuration time
- Templates: configure commands, measurements, and colors for every device in the system in a single environment
- Hot-Standby architecture: switches automatically between available servers
- Scalability: supervises and controls a large number of substations and communication points
- Protocols: IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-101/102/103/104, DNP3, and ICCP, among others, with more than 500 drivers available
Benefits
- Lower engineering and maintenance costs
- Shorter configuration and commissioning time at lower cost
- High reliability and availability
- Consistent data across interfaces, preventing operating errors
- Easy integration with existing SCADA and DCS systems, preserving previous investments

Power outages can cause major financial losses, such as reprocessed production and lost raw materials. Traditional load shedding systems have high engineering, maintenance, and expansion costs because of their complex logic and the large number of topological states that must be analyzed.
The Elipse Power Load Shedding module reduces losses from interruptions and increases power system reliability and availability, while keeping engineering and maintenance costs low.
It is the ideal solution for keeping critical loads running continuously. Its innovative architecture uses dynamic algorithms based on the plant’s electrical model, resulting in a more robust system that deploys quickly and costs less to expand.
The algorithm evaluates scenarios that could destabilize the power system and preselects the loads to be shed in each case, so the solution can act within a few milliseconds.
The module continuously simulates each scenario and calculates which loads would be shed if instability occurred. The protection system therefore knows in advance which breakers must trip, even before a disturbance happens, keeping the time between detecting the problem and shedding the loads as short as possible. The system can then recover quickly and reach a new stable operating point.
Features
- Smart algorithm: continuously simulates generation and supply loss scenarios and trips only the minimum load required
- Fast response: acts quickly enough to preserve system stability
- Spinning reserve: takes into account the reserve available in the generators, making better use of industrial power assets
- Load priorities: sets the priority of each load easily and flexibly
- CIM-based software: built on the IEC 61970 (CIM) standard
- Disturbance detection: detects generation loss, underfrequency, and violations of generator loading limits
Benefits
- Greater operational safety through early detection of risky situations
- Shorter engineering, maintenance, and commissioning time
- Minimal shedding time, with relays pre-armed and GOOSE messaging
- A more reliable system with more priority loads kept online
- Lower financial losses from power supply interruptions
- Lower hardware investment
- Fast, accurate load prioritization
“Elipse Power is an excellent platform for managing power systems because it brings power system analysis tools and SCADA together in a single environment.”
