Mannheim, December 18, 2025
With the MWM TCS control system, operators of energy plants and microgrids benefit from user-defined control. MWM TCS is available as asset control for individual generator sets or as site control for multiple plants and combines all relevant data in a single system. The component-based hardware design offers a high degree of flexibility in application.

Control of Individual Generator Sets, Power Plants, and Microgrids
The MWM TCS control system is not only very well-structured and efficient, but also very flexible in terms of application. It was designed to support and control growing operations and increasing energy demands. The unique control system is not limited to gas engines alone, but can combine various energy generation systems such as gas generators, diesel generators, photovoltaics, battery storage systems, wind power systems, and more. The advantage for plant operators is that all systems can be operated and monitored via a single control. Thanks to the high flexibility of the system, even individual operational requirements can be met. If required, up to 32 distributed energy plants can be managed via a single system.
The MWM control system is available in the following configurations: TCS 100 (Single Engine Controller), TCS 200 (Engine Paralleling Controller), TCS 300 (Site Controller Small Systems), TCS 400 (Site Controller Large Systems), and as TCS Custom Solution for customer-specific requirements. The TCS 100 is used for controlling individual generator sets, while the TCS 200 is suitable for controlling up to 32 generator sets as well as parallel operation. The MWM TCS 300 and TCS 400 are designed for site monitoring, microgrid and engine monitoring, and advanced paralleling applications.
MWM TCS Custom Solutions for Complex Operating Procedures
Unique operating procedures require custom-tailored solutions. Owing to their component-based hardware design, MWM TCS plant controls can easily be adapted to the respective needs. For complex operating requirements, MWM offers a complete system consisting of power generation plants, switchgear, and customer-specific control systems.
The MWM TCS control system is an advanced system for controlling generator sets, complete power generation plants, and microgrids. Thanks to its high flexibility, plant operators can configure the MWM TCS system according to the individual requirements of their operations.
