Hydro Power Plant Control System

Hydro Power Plant Control System

Hydro power plant control systems, SCADA and mechanical solutions for increased accuracy, reliability and plant optimization.

Fewer Shutdowns, Faster Startups and Efficient Load Dispatch

Hydroelectric plants have long lifecycles, with some facilities still operating after more than 100 years. A modernized control solution can improve your ability to dispatch generated power, extend the life of your plant, and improve the plant’s reliability and availability.

Through embedded applications for turbine control, pond control, energy management, equipment protection, and much more, the Ovation system ensures fewer shutdowns, faster startups, and more efficient plant operations.

Hydro Control Solutions

Digital Governor Control

Emerson has extensive experience with mechanical, analog and Ovation digital governor upgrades that provide hydro power plants with immediate, accurate response to megawatt setpoint and frequency disturbances.

Unit Control

Ovation Unit Control is a self-documenting, IEC-61131 sequence-based control solution with online diagnostics that enables consistent unit startups and shutdowns.

Generation-Load Control

The distributed automatic generation-load control solution utilizes embedded industry-specific Ovation algorithms that economically allocate power demand to generating units for faster and more accurate response to load changes.

Plant/Fleet Optimization

Ovation advanced power applications efficiently distribute load setpoints among available operating units or plants to cost-effectively meet generation demand while minimizing unit wear.

A platform-independent, ICS cybersecurity solution that helps DCS and SCADA system users in the power generation and water/wastewater industries secure their critical assets without process disruption, and meet regulatory requirements like NERC CIP.
