4. National Energy Group applies dual-machine hot standby technology for the first time to fill the gap in the wind power industry

Recently, National Energy Group Longyuan Zhongneng successfully applied dual-machine hot-standby technology for wind farm power prediction in Jiangsu offshore wind farms. This is the first time in the wind power industry that dual-machine hot-standby technology has been successfully applied to offshore wind farm power prediction systems. Effectively improve the safe and reliable operation of wind farm grid-related systems and fill the gap in the industry.

The dual-machine hot backup technology realizes real-time data synchronization between the main and backup servers of the wind farm power prediction system without manual intervention. After the main machine fails, it automatically switches to the backup machine to report data, effectively reducing the large fines caused by the interruption of data reporting and scheduling. This measure greatly improves the reliability of the power prediction system, increases the stability of data storage, and reduces the resource consumption of a single server for multi-channel upload requirements.
