Control and Monitoring of Diesel Generators

A backup power source under control – ready when you really need it.

Diesel generators often run unnecessarily or aren't ready when needed
Many facilities rely on diesel generators as backup in case of grid failure or to support peak loads. But without smart control, they often run idle, waste fuel, or fail to respond when required. Without integration into the microgrid, their potential remains unused – even though they could play a valuable role in providing flexibility and grid services.
FLOWBOX EMOS connects the diesel generator to active microgrid control
Real-time monitoring of generator operation
The system tracks performance, fuel consumption, availability, and response parameters.
Automated and remote control based on predefined scenarios
FLOWBOX enables remote start and stop based on rules – such as grid outage, load peaks, or the need to support other energy sources.
Scheduled testing and backup readiness
Plan regular test cycles and ensure the generator is always ready – without manual checks.
Full integration into microgrid power control
The generator becomes a functional part of the energy management system, reacting to demand, production, and storage needs.

Result: A backup power source managed by both your operation and the market

With FLOWBOX EMOS, your diesel generator is no longer isolated. It runs only when truly needed and supports the microgrid efficiently — whether during blackouts, peak loads, or as a flexible grid service. Continuous monitoring gives you confidence that your backup is always ready, without manual intervention.
