Full grid compliance with optimum performance

Orchestra is power plant controller that brings intelligence to PV, BESS, and hybrid systems. It optimizes plant performance with flexible configurations, fast response, extensive grid‑code compliance, and advanced functionalities such as grid‑forming, black‑start, and multi‑inverter coordination. Built for utility‑scale reliability, Orchestra ensures stable, efficient, and future‑ready energy operations.

Functionalities

PV Plant, BESS Stand‑alone and Hybrid PV+BESS support:

 

  • Grid code compliance
  • Primary frequency response (P–f droop)
  • Synthetic inertia
  • Voltage control
  • Power factor, reactive power control
  • Ramp rate (active / reactive power)
  • Power oscillation damping (POD)
  • Q–V droop, P–V droop
  • Q–P droop, P–F droop

Most of power quality functions can be performed by either Orchestra or power converters.
