SICAM Power Control | Siemens

Why SICAM Power Control?

A unified application approach (one tool, one certification, and unified hardware) simplifies the integration of microgrid and photovoltaic controls, as well as seamless integration with Electrification X (the cloud-based IoT/SaaS platform for digital monitoring of your electrification infrastructure).

This results in your advantages:

Reduction of project planning time Streamlined workflows eliminate redundant configurations across multiple platforms
Acceleration of completion Faster commissioning thanks to a single engineering Tool
Future-proof operation

Modular design supports future use cases
Lower training costs Mastering a single platform replaces the requirements for expertise in multiple systems

Key Benefits

Advanced Battery Management

Advanced Battery Management supports multiple battery pack configurations, provides real-time health monitoring for safe and reliable operation, and enables seamless integration with diverse battery technologies.

Hardware independence with seamless upgradeability

Power Control is hardware-independent, running on standard platforms and existing devices. It decouples software from hardware and enables seamless upgrades and future expansion without downtime or hardware replacement.

Higher renewable utilization

With advanced control and optimization, Power Control increases renewable utilization by balancing generation and demand in real time—enabling more local green energy integration while maintaining grid stability.

Featured capabilities

Grid support functions

Grid support functions enable active power control during frequency deviations. Power follows the P(f) characteristic with reduced maximum output at falling frequency. FSM and LFSM ensure controlled frequency response.

Asset and System monitoring

Asset and system monitoring provide manual and automated control of systems with start/stop functions. SICAM‑HMI dashboards show plant status, supported by logging, event and alarm lists, and trend views.

Security and Communication

SICAM Power Control provides end‑to‑end IPSec security, complies with NERC CIP, ISO/IEC 27001, IEC 62443 and IEC 62351, and supports standard protocols such as IEC 61850, IEC 60870‑5‑101/104 and Modbus TCP.
