Abstract

Currently, the use of software systems for optimizing the sustainable use of water and energy resources has been implemented in a wide range of productive sectors. In the sector of Water Purification Plants (WPP) the sustainable control of water and energy consumption is carried out by means of advanced Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. The main objective of these SCADA systems is controlling the consumption of these resources in real time. In the majority of the occasions, optimization systems for the sustainability consumption of these resources are not integrated in the SCADA system. With the integration of systems for optimization, the determination in real time of the most viable option for the sustainable management of resources is expected. In this paper, a case study in the Southeast Spain of an advanced automated management system for the optimization of energy and power terms in a WPP with renewable energy based in a Photovoltaic Power Plant (PVPP) is presented. Firstly, the introduction and some additional details for the entire problem are presented. Moreover, the main parts of the software integrated in the SCADA system of the WPP will be detailed.
