HYDROPOWER AUTOMATION
Automation & process control for hydropower plants.
Hydropower combines long plant lifecycles with demanding requirements for availability, remote operation, protection interfaces and transparent plant states.
Typical automation scope
- Operating, start and stop sequences.
- Auxiliaries, pumps, valves and plant services.
- Alarm, HMI/SCADA and remote-operation integration.
- Modernization of existing PLC and process-control systems.
- Integration of protection, measurement and third-party systems.
- Testing and commissioning with defined rollback.
Experience from hydropower projects
Our references include projects for Alzkraftwerke Heider and the Hinterthal hydropower plant. The work has covered technical consulting, automation implementation and modernization of existing process-control systems.
