Real-time SLDC data for wind and solar plants.
Rook SCADA collects live generation data from every turbine and inverter and shares it with your State Load Despatch Centre, meeting CEA and SLDC communication and security requirements.
What is SLDC data aggregation?
SLDC data aggregation is the collection of real-time generation data from many wind and solar generators and its delivery, in the required format, to the State Load Despatch Centre (SLDC). The SLDC uses this data to balance the state grid and schedule power. Rook is a recognised data aggregator for the Tamil Nadu SLDC.
Each state SLDC sets its own data and communication requirements, within the framework of the Central Electricity Authority (CEA). Small and scattered generators often find it impractical to meet these on their own.
Rook SCADA already collects live data from every connected turbine and inverter, so the same data path can serve the SLDC — without a second system on site.
Meet SLDC requirements without a second system
One data path serves your operators and the grid.
-
01
Recognised aggregator
Rook is a recognised data aggregator for the Tamil Nadu SLDC.
-
02
CEA & SLDC compliant
Communication and security are designed to CEA and SLDC requirements.
-
03
Every asset counted
Turbines and inverters from different OEMs report through the same system. See OEM compatibility.
-

Live, not batch
Generation data is collected continuously as part of real-time monitoring.
-
05
Reports that match
Your own generation and availability reports use the same data the SLDC receives. See reports and charts.
-
06
Managed for you
Rook handles SIM renewals, server infrastructure and the communication architecture.
How generation data reaches the SLDC
From the machine to the grid operator, on one engineered path.
-
01
Understand
We confirm your state SLDC’s data, format and communication requirements alongside your OEM mix and site connectivity.
-
02
Collect
A Rook RTU at each turbine or inverter reads live data and sends it over SIM or fibre.
-
03
Aggregate & share
Rook SCADA aggregates the data and shares it with the SLDC in the required form.

Support
Continuous support with a 1-year warranty, plus extended warranty and AMC options. Rook manages SIM renewals and server infrastructure.
SLDC Data Aggregation: common questions
A State Load Despatch Centre (SLDC) is the authority that operates the electricity grid within an Indian state. It schedules and despatches power and needs real-time data from generators, including wind and solar plants, to keep the grid balanced.
Yes. Rook is a recognised data aggregator for the Tamil Nadu SLDC.
Yes. Rook’s solution meets CEA and SLDC communication and security requirements.
Every Rook deployment is engineered to the respective state SLDC’s requirements, which we review during the site survey. Rook has installations from Gujarat to Tamil Nadu.
No. The Rook RTU that feeds your SCADA dashboard also carries the data shared with the SLDC.
