Provence Hybrid Plant

A 120 MW hybrid plant: six wind turbines, four PV inverter blocks, two battery racks, the main 33/225 kV transformer, the grid connection point and a meteorological mast.

DjiniousCCOperations & SCADA

The Provence Hybrid Plant single-line overview in DjiniousCC: six wind turbines and four PV blocks feeding a 33 kV collector bus, two battery racks, the main transformer and the 225 kV grid connection.

Site PROV, Manosque, France. These are not mock-ups: all five sites run side by side in the same DjiniousCC instance — 99 assets and 693 live tags, acquired at 1 Hz, historised, alarmed, and each with a procedure that has been dry-run and proven on an isolated twin.

A gust front arrives faster than a phone tree

Sustained 22 m/s wind across the field puts every turbine near rated power under high mechanical load. The protective action — ramp the field down — has to be right, agreed and applied within minutes, and it has to be defensible afterwards.

What the platform models here

Each family has a behavioural model that the live simulator and the proving twin share, so a dry-run behaves the way the plant does.

The procedure: High-Wind Curtailment Ramp-Down

Protect the wind field from mechanical overload during a high-wind gust front by ramping turbines to 30 % and confirming with the shift supervisor. Authority class: C4 · operational action.

The proof: High-Wind Gust Front

Sustained 22 m/s wind across the field — near-rated power with high mechanical load.

Baseline — without the procedure

Wind-field active power ≤ 1.3 MW — measured 3.60 MW
Rotor speed ≤ 12 rpm after mitigation — measured 15.0 rpm

With the procedure — every assertion holds

Wind-field active power ≤ 1.3 MW — measured 1.08 MW
Rotor speed ≤ 12 rpm after mitigation — measured 4.50 rpm

Six commands intercepted on the twin. This is the loop the copilot drives end to end in the copilot capture below.

Two rotor-angle trajectories after a fault — one a bounded damped swing, the other diverging past the 180-degree loss-of-synchronism line

Power gridsAC grid stabilityDoes the grid survive the fault? Synchronous machines whose rotor angles must stay in step, a three-phase short circuit, and the critical clearing time that separates a recoverable swing from a blackout — the swing equation, the equal-area criterion, multi-machine stability, and the low-inertia renewables concern.
