Datawatt Smart Grid Solutions for Horticulture

This document is a technical report detailing the implementation of Ovarro's Datawatt Smart Grid (DSG) series in the Netherlands' horticulture sector, which is crucial for the country's energy transition towards renewable sources. The report outlines the challenges faced by the horticulture industry, particularly its reliance on fossil fuels and the need for enhanced sustainability measures. It describes how Ovarro's RTUs and smart grid technology improve energy efficiency, security, and productivity. The DSG system offers real-time flexibility and robust protocol handling, which aids grid operators like Juva in monitoring low-voltage frequency and managing renewable energy sources. The report also highlights the operational benefits of the DSG, including its multi-protocol capability and integration with StreamWebscada for real-time data management. Furthermore, it discusses the potential of these technologies to serve as a model for global smart grid operators in achieving carbon neutrality goals, as the Netherlands embraces diverse energy sources.
