dc.description.abstractIncreasingly, South Africa is developing a need for grid-independent power systems. Many options exist already in the form of diesel generators, solar panels and wind generators. This project is to do with marrying the various sources of power with efficient and intelligent control. Specifically, the terms of reference describe an existing solution that has been developed. The focus of this thesis is to design a replacement system for the existing system which incorporates many communication technologies and additional features. The design centres on a central digital signal processor board. The redesign of this hardware and software will form the bulk of the content of this document. The scope of the design encompasses all the communications and new features including remote programming, control and monitoring software and robustness. The new system is to form the infrastructure or base hardware and software for many different power-related applications. A specific example of such an application, the hybrid power system, is discussed in detail to demonstrate the success of the design.en_ZA
