Remote Operations to Securely Monitor and Control Plant Processes
Remote, real-time access to your operations is crucial, especially with the increase of geographically dispersed and often unmanned renewable and distributed energy resources. With remote capabilities enabled by Ovation™ automation software and technology, you can securely access data remotely, gain faster and more precise responses to critical issues, and stay proactive in keeping your team and operations safe – all backed and secured by built-in cybersecurity features.
Increase Operational Visibility Across Your Enterprise
To remain competitive in a changing power landscape, utilities are creating centralized, remote operation collaboration centers to optimize resources and improve performance. Integrated control, monitoring and analytics provide valuable prognostic insights that quickly detect the onset of an abnormal condition and guides the control system or the operator to take immediate action. A proactive, fleet-based operational management approach reduces O&M costs, increases revenue and improves safety.
Remote Operation Capabilities
Renewable
A North American utility is expanding its renewable portfolio by purchasing existing and building new utility-sized solar PV farms across the United States. To minimize O&M costs and improve operational efficiency, Emerson is implementing a phased modernization program, replacing obsolete, disparate SCADA systems for over 100 solar sites with a common platform of integrated technologies and software that connects geographically dispersed plants to a centralized remote operations center.
