Introduction to Supervisory Controls and Data Acquisition (SCADA) for Renewables is a six module course. Each module is focused by its specific learning objectives. The goal of the module course is to advance renewable energy education by enabling faculty leaders to integrate SCADA into existing energy technician educational programs.
The primary objective for Module #1: SCADA Overview is to describe SCADA system basics and important differences with other control
systems.
