Advanced Control Engineering for a Greener Tomorrow.

“>At Dotx Control Solutions, we lead the charge in renewable energy control systems. Our advanced engineering expertise and innovative solutions support wind, solar, and hydrogen projects worldwide, helping make the vision of a carbon-neutral future a reality.

Focus Areas

Wind Turbines

The Dotx Wind Turbine Controller (DWTC) is based on our Advanced Control Suite Several. Several OEM’s use the Dotx Wind Turbine Controller (DWTC) for their multi-megawatt wind turbines. It was one of the first to introduce advanced control to wind turbines – allowing OEM’s to design their wind turbines more compliant to the wind thanks to advanced control features such as IPC, Fore-Aft Damping, and Real-Time Monitoring and Data Analytics:

  • Advanced rotor and pitch control to adapt in real-time to wind variations, maximizing energy capture.
  • Load and fatigue management to reduce wear and increase turbine lifespan.
  • Data-driven maintenance using real-time analytics, minimizing unplanned downtime and maximizing output.

Photovoltaic (PV) Systems

We help clients optimize solar energy generation and ensure seamless integration into existing infrastructures:

  • Intelligent controls for peak solar panel performance.
  • Energy storage management to ensure a steady power supply.
  • Hybrid system configurations integrating PV with other sources for maximum reliability and efficiency.

Hydrogen (H₂) Integration

Hydrogen’s potential as a clean energy source is immense, and Dotx supports its practical deployment with control solutions for:

  • Efficient electrolyzer operation for hydrogen production directly from renewable sources.
  • Energy balancing and management between hydrogen and other renewables.
  • Optimized storage and distribution to make hydrogen a viable, sustainable energy option.

Solutions for the Renewable Industry Sector

Advanced Process Control (APC)

DotX offers industry-leading APC strategies to optimize renewable processes. Our solutions include:

  • Model Predictive Control (MPC): Leveraging real-time data and predictive algorithms to manage nonlinear and multivariable processes, ensuring precise and efficient control. Can be used very effectively for forecasting, and integrating day-ahead market prices and weather informations.
  • Gain-Scheduling: Adaptively managing changes in process dynamics to maintain optimal performance.
  • Feedforward Techniques: Implementing self-learning feedforward controls that anticipate and adjust for process disturbances before they impact production quality.
  • Decoupling and Multivariable Control: Advanced strategies to handle complex interactions between variables, ensuring smoother operations and higher efficiency.

PID Tuning and Optimization

Our PID Tuner offers robust control for renewable systems, from turbine speed control to electrolyzer efficiency, maintaining stability and maximizing uptime.

Digital Twin Technology

We bring digital twin technology to the renewable sector, creating virtual replicas of wind, solar, and hydrogen processes to optimize efficiency, predict maintenance needs, and simulate improvements.

Decoupling and Multivariable Control Systems

Our decoupling strategies and multivariable control systems manage complex interactions in chemical processes, ensuring optimal performance and minimizing variability. This approach allows for precise adjustments, reducing the risk of disturbances that could affect product quality and output.
