The REDONA Energy System uses a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system (SCADA) based on standard communication protocols, including TCP/IP and DNP 3.0 to ensure ease of integration with electric distribution systems. The use of utility monitored SCADA enables the REDONA Energy System to provide secure power to the electric grid that is highly superior to the conventional generation system. Distributing the generators across the electric systems enables the use of repeated functions and creates the ability to work around congested or failed transmission systems.

Today, small utilities have access to technology that used to be limited to the larger utility systems. Fiber optic is available to even the rural utilities. Small utilities today have repetitive technology in their data lines, phone systems, and SCADA systems. This technology enables a small utility to monitor many REDONA Energy Systems on the same distribution and sub-transmission systems. Key parameters are measured and monitored by a Supervisory computer. Should these performance measures trend towards control limits, alarms can be sounded in local control centers, enabling other systems to be dispatched in response to conditions.

In the past, one 200-megawatt generator might serve a mid-sized city. This generator could be tens of miles away, and should it fail, or the transmission system that transports the energy fail, widespread outages could occur. With REDONA Energy Systems distributed throughout the area and monitored through the SCADA system tied to the local dispatch center, the risk of failure is eliminated.
