You can set yourself, your team and any outside partner as a user and create your own passwords. If you have access to multiple sites, you'll automatically have access to them all after logging. With the ENcombi ECcloud you will always have an overview of your plant's performance from your PC or mobile device.

ECcloud is plug and play monitoring meaning that it automatically adapts to a given a sites in terms of numbers and vendors of genset controllers, power meters, inverters, sensors etc. The data that is visualized in ECcloud differs from product to product but the overall layout, the various features and the way of navigating etc. are common for all of them.

SITES Have an overview of available sites accessible to you. Select which site you want to monitor. Select which site you want to browse around and analyse. All pages automatically adapts to the selected site in terms of number and vendor of genset controllers, power meters, inverters and sensors. Multiple sites can be selected at the same time forming a virtual power plant.

ARBITRAGE When the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is connected to the grid, you have the flexibility to configure whether the BESS should dispatch power continuously, only during specific periods, or according to a predefined charging schedule.

The grid can charge the BESS based on the spot price arbitrage optimizer. By leveraging spot price-based control, users can set a minimum profit threshold in euros, ensuring that charging or discharging only occurs when it is most profitable, capitalizing on peak and valley price differentials.

Product FAQ

ECcloud

ECcloud questions

How often does the site send data?

Every 5 minutes by default. The fastest rate is 1 minute, which is intended for testing only.

Data older than one year is trimmed to one-hour resolution.

What happens if the site loses its internet connection?

The controller buffers the data on its SD card and sends it to ECcloud once the connection is back.

The buffer empties at roughly 1:8, so 24 hours of data takes about 3 hours to transfer.

Who can see my site, and does extra access cost anything?

Each controller is registered individually, and whoever registers it becomes the site administrator.

The administrator can grant an unlimited number of users access free of charge, as administrators or viewers.

When does the free trial count down?

Only while data logging and the data service are enabled, and the ECcloud extra ("C") is not present in the controller.

If I replace a controller, do I keep its history?

Yes. Once the new controller is registered, Clone the site copies all data logged by the old controller into the new one’s history.

Is there a weather forecast?

Yes. The Weather page shows a 5-day forecast for the site location in 3-hour steps.

Can I choose what goes in a report?

For manual reports, yes: you tailor the content and download them. Scheduled email reports have fixed content, holding the Executive analysis.

Email notifications can also be set up for any event or alarm on site.
