Abstract: Currently, there is a trend in the energy sector towards the application of edge computing techniques to facilitate active monitoring of distribution networks. The adoption of this technique is crucial for applications involving distributed monitoring systems that require real-time data processing with low latency. An edge computing environment ensures an adequate response to two time-level response requirements. One for events that could trigger a serious problem in the distribution network, and a less demanding one for the management of energy. This article justifies and analyzes an architecture specifically designed to provide an adequate response to the two levels of time demand that set the procedure followed for the monitoring, storage and local diagnosis of several photovoltaic plants located on the same distribution network, with the aim of studying their joint production. One of the main contributions is related to the expansion of the capabilities of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) to monitor solar radiation or energy production perimeters by sector. The second major contribution is to guarantee the quality of the measurements and low latency in communications, using as a reference the IEEE C37.118-2011 synchrophasor standard in cooperation with the Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) synchronization protocol that guarantees simultaneity in distributed measurements. In short, a procedure is sought that allows a real-time response with the use of computing techniques very close to the origin of the measurements, guaranteeing exhaustive control from the moment the capture begins until the parameters are stored in a time series database.
