ADCS terminal
The acronym ADCS stands for Automated Dispatch Control System. It is a control and information system for energy devices that are centrally managed by the transmission system operator (hereafter referred to as TSO) dispatch centre. Such devices are located on site at consumers or producers of electricity and could be generators in heating plants, diesel generators, compressors, fans or other technologies with the potential for regulation, such as battery storage systems.
