Put the compliance layer in the system you're already building.

GPweb-Remote is the on-site controller that talks to DEDDIE, to your inverters or dataloggers, and to the substation.

DEDDIE's operations team has tested it live, against simulated faults.

DEDDIE remote control, already solved

GPweb-Remote drops into the delivery you are already building and gives the plant its DEDDIE remote-control interface. Every required DEDDIE function is implemented, with zero mandatory gaps, and it has been tested and approved by DEDDIE's own operations team. It reads almost any inverter or datalogger, it is easy to configure, and it is one product for you to carry — not a protocol project on every job.

Commissioning without the site visit

DEDDIE commissioning is normally many pages of numbers and scenarios that have to be tested: a day or two of a technician on site, and then again for the acceptance test. GPweb runs DEDDIE's own test sequence itself, at the specified dwell times, and fills in the DEDDIE protocol papers automatically — all you do is send them in. In most cases the acceptance test with DEDDIE is done remotely too; nobody has to stand in the substation. That is time and cost your project no longer carries.

You build substations. Not SCADA integrations.

For any vendor's device, the hardest part of DEDDIE remote control is the communication with the substation's protection relay. Bundle GPweb-Remote with the substation and your installer never touches that task — the part that otherwise runs over time, and over budget. On the other side, the inverters, GPweb reads almost anything and is easy to configure. So the substation you deliver ships DEDDIE-ready, and it becomes a more valuable product for carrying the GPweb hardware. We offer GPweb-Remote to substation manufacturers at a very attractive price.

For EPCs and O&M companies

EPCs — one product solves the DEDDIE requirement across every job, at a low price and easy to configure. And it is more than compliance: full documentation of what happens, financial reporting on what curtailment and equipment defects actually cost, and an O&M management tool that raises the value of what you deliver.

O&M companies — GPweb monitors every system automatically, gives your operators what they need, and manages the work that follows a fault. For your customers it produces the numbers they want: production data, and what the plant should have produced — with the financial loss from curtailment, Fo.S.E. and defects set out plainly.

The device we haven't met yet

Whatever is in your system: if it speaks a documented protocol and we can get to one unit to test against, we write the driver for it — at no charge. So far, we have not met one we could not do.

One vendor answers for the interface — for 25 years

When DEDDIE asks a question about the outstation, it comes to us, not to your engineer who specified it. When the specification moves — and it has before — the drivers update in place rather than becoming a site visit. That is the part that decides whether a component is worth carrying inside your delivery: not what it does on the day, but who supports it for the twenty-five years afterwards.

Common questions

What does it cost?

We do not publish a price, and neither does anyone else in this market. What we can tell you is that GPweb is very competitively priced — careful design has kept the cost low, and you may be surprised.

On the first call we tell you what is in and what is out: the DEDDIE-side router and link, the controller, the integration work, the commissioning day, and the updates afterwards. Your cabinet builder prices the bundle, so the number depends on who is delivering the substation.

Are you certified or approved by DEDDIE?

GPweb has been "tested and approved" by DEDDIE. DEDDIE's operations team tested our systems live, against simulated faults, over several hours, and confirmed it does everything it needs to do correctly. What matters for you is passing DEDDIE's on-site test — and we have done exactly that.

There is no DEDDIE certification scheme to be certified under, and no approved-vendor list to be on. DEDDIE states on its own website that it does not recommend or verify the suitability of equipment from any manufacturer, and that equipment selection is the producer's responsibility.

What happens when the link to DEDDIE drops?

The plant neither goes rogue nor goes dark. The last valid setpoint holds, so the plant stays inside the limit the operator last set. And commands that must not be executed — the plant is in local for maintenance, say — are refused per the specification and recorded, not silently ignored. All of this is defined in DEDDIE's protocol specification and we have fully implemented it.
