HANTECK Company won the bid for the experimental control system of ocean wave energy power generation

With the rapid development of the world economy, the surge in population, and the increasing demand for energy, the vast ocean, which accounts for 70% of the Earth, is increasingly valued by people on how to fully utilize it. Wave energy is a new type of energy with low density, instability, no pollution, wide distribution, large reserves, and difficult utilization. Countries around the world are accelerating their scientific and technological level to improve the utilization efficiency of wave energy.

HANTECK Company, with its efficient integration capability of automatic control systems, strictly adheres to the principles of high efficiency and stability from project initiation to acceptance, and participates in the automatic control part of the entire experimental project. This project is divided into two major systems: automatic control and mechanical. The former mainly includes large control cabinets, Siemens PLC, Schneider frequency converters, various communication modules, intelligent instruments, etc. The latter mainly includes high-power motors, wind direction/speed sensors, speed sensors, temperature sensors, etc. Use high-performance Advantech original industrial control computer and infinite point Asia Control King software to control the entire electrical and mechanical parts. Four high-power Schneider frequency converters are used to control four motors, which rotate to simulate waves at sea level. And real-time collection of various data of the entire experimental project, such as motor speed, total electricity generated, indoor and outdoor temperature, wind direction, wind speed, etc., and historical storage of these data, real-time/historical curve depiction.

As a key scientific research project jointly developed by the State Oceanic Administration and Fujian Province, this project has also received attention and support from leaders at various levels of several key universities in Fujian Province, providing high-value experimental data for Fujian Province’s next large-scale substantial wave power generation research in the offshore area of Xiamen.
