ICV - Production Information Center

The Production Information Center (ICV) is a system that primarily serves to manage, evaluate and present the results of production and supply of electricity. It may also, for example, contain functions for monitoring and evaluating the supply of heat or gas consumption, and possibly other functions related to energy operations.

The ICV is designed as a central system of the electricity producer, which is controlled by default from the producer's dispatch center.

On the one hand, the ICV communicates with the unit terminals, to which it transmits operation plans and commands for control and obtains from them on-line information about the production and supply of power energy and balancing services, on the other hand, it obtains data about operation plans from the producer's business systems and presents operational and balance data about the production and supply of energy and balancing services via the website.

ICV serves as a superior control and information system, which allows in particular:

• online monitoring, evaluation and control of power generation over all connected sources or over defined groups of sources across the portfolio with the aim of fulfilling the specified business obligation
• control ICV functions via a web application
• online monitoring of the performance of balancing services
• monitor, balance and present the results of production and supply of electricity and balancing services
• monitor, balance and present other information related to energy production, such as heat supply or gas consumption
• archiving of operating and balance data for retrospective evaluation

ICV is a modular system, its functions and communication connections can be expanded and adapted to customer requirements.

As standard, the ICV system is implemented on the OpenShift/Kubernetes platform.

OSC, a.s. service can be provided for ICV in 24 / 7 mode with an agreed reaction time.
