Emerson introduces Ovation SCADA for Wind Energy

艾默生為風力發(fā)電推出Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)

Pittsburgh, December 20, 2007 -- Emerson Process Management introduced Ovation SCADA for wind energy management. The Ovation SCADA system features state-of-the-art monitoring, control and diagnostic functionality that optimizes wind farm operations. The SCADA system for wind energy management is part of Emerson’s portfolio of SCADA solutions for renewable energy, which also includes hydro power and solar power, among others.

匹茲堡12月20日消息——艾默生過程管理為風力發(fā)電管理推出了Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)。Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)具有先進的監(jiān)測、控制和診斷功能，優(yōu)化風力發(fā)電廠的運行。用于風力發(fā)電管理的SCADA系統(tǒng)是艾默生可再生能源SCADA解決方案產(chǎn)品組合的一部分，其他的還包括水電和太陽能發(fā)電。

The introduction of the Ovation SCADA Solution for wind energy management comes at an opportune time. The World Wind Energy Association expects total installed capacity for wind energy to grow from roughly 74,000 MW in 2006 to 160,000 MW in 2010 – an increase of nearly 54 percent. As energy companies expand power production by increasing the number of generators per farm or operating multiple wind farms, their need to efficiently and effectively manage those assets becomes progressively more important, according to Bob Yeager, president of the Power & Water Solutions division of Emerson.

風力發(fā)電管理Ovation SCADA解決方案的推出正是時候。世界風能協(xié)會預計總裝機容量大約從2006年的7萬4千兆瓦增加到2010年的16萬兆瓦，增加接近54%。根據(jù)艾默生水電解決方案部總裁Bob Yeager的說法，隨著能源公司通過在單個電廠增加發(fā)電機數(shù)量或者經(jīng)營多個電廠來擴大發(fā)電量，他們對高效率和有效地管理這些資產(chǎn)的需要逐漸變得越來越重要。

“In addition to optimizing operations at individual wind farms, the Ovation SCADA system can also be utilized to manage an entire fleet of wind farms,” Yeager explained. “The ability to connect a number of active wind farms to their corporate headquarters or operations centers offers further opportunities for increased efficiency, cost savings and better overall management of assets.”

Bob Yeager解釋道：“除了優(yōu)化各個單獨風力電廠的運營，Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)還可以用于管理一整片的風力電廠。能夠連接多個活躍的風力電廠到企業(yè)總部或者營運中心為提高效率、節(jié)約成本和更好的整體管理資產(chǎn)提供了進一步的機會。”

The Ovation SCADA system supports wind turbine generators from all major OEMs, as well as multiple communication network types, such as dial-up, leased lines and wireless. The Ovation SCADA system offers the capability to remotely start, stop, reset and tag out individual wind turbine generators, minimizing labor-intensive site visits. Protective supervisory shutdown is automatically conducted by the Ovation SCADA system when certain predefined site conditions are reached. For example, vibration conditions can be monitored through meteorological data obtained from a met tower interface to the Ovation SCADA system. When the vibrations exceed a safe operating limit, the Ovation SCADA system activates a shutdown of the turbine to avoid any equipment or area damage.

Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)支持所有主要OEM廠商生產(chǎn)的風力渦輪發(fā)電機，以及多種通信網(wǎng)絡類型，例如撥號、租用線路以及無線技術。Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)提供了遠程啟動、停止、復位和標定個別風力渦輪發(fā)電機的能力，最大限度地減少勞動力密集型的現(xiàn)場考察。一旦達到某些預先設定的現(xiàn)場條件，Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)自動執(zhí)行保護性的監(jiān)督停機。例如，振動條件可以通過來自觀測塔傳輸?shù)絆vation SCADA系統(tǒng)而獲得的氣象數(shù)據(jù)監(jiān)控到。一旦振動超越安全運作限度，Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)就會啟動渦輪停機，避免任何設備或者區(qū)域的損害。

Diagnostic information generated from the turbine, met tower and substation is available from the Ovation SCADA system through network interfaces. Diagnostic information, which is stored in the Ovation Historian, allows for the creation of custom graphical trends to monitor various equipment and conditions on the farm. The SCADA system allows users to track wind turbine generator maintenance schedules and histories, and access custom reports. Emerson’s SCADA system also provides a tool that forecasts the production potential for a predefined time period based on known factors, such as wind speed, wind direction and the condition of the turbine generator.

來自渦輪、觀測塔和變電站的診斷信息可通過網(wǎng)絡接口從Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)里得到。存儲于Ovation歷史數(shù)據(jù)的診斷信息允許創(chuàng)建定制的圖形化趨勢，以監(jiān)測電廠內(nèi)的各種設備和條件。SCADA系統(tǒng)允許用戶跟蹤風力渦輪發(fā)電機的維修時間表和歷史，并獲得定制報告。艾默生的SCADA系統(tǒng)還提供了一個工具，在基于已知因素，例如風速、風向和渦輪發(fā)電機狀況的基礎上，預測預定時間內(nèi)的發(fā)電潛力。

Emerson is uniquely qualified to offer its SCADA system for application in the burgeoning wind power market. From a power perspective, Emerson is a leading supplier of control systems for fossil, nuclear and alternative energy power generating facilities, with control systems installed in plants representing roughly 300,000 MW of generating capacity, which is equivalent to 40 percent of average peak demand in the United States. Emerson is also a leader in the design, installation and support of steam, gas and boiler feedpump turbine control solutions.

艾默生是唯一一家為新興的風力發(fā)電市場應用提供其SCADA系統(tǒng)的合格供應商。從電力的角度來看，艾默生是原油、核能和可轉(zhuǎn)化能源發(fā)電廠控制系統(tǒng)的領先供應商，其安裝在電廠的控制系統(tǒng)占了大約30萬兆瓦的發(fā)電量，相當于美國平均高峰用電需求的40%。艾默生還在蒸汽、燃氣和鍋爐給泵渦輪控制解決方案的設計、安裝和支持領域處于領先地位。

From a SCADA perspective, a number of major metropolitan areas – including Detroit, Chicago, San Diego and Washington, D.C. – rely on city-wide Ovation SCADA systems to oversee large, complex water and wastewater infrastructures that require monitoring of up to 100 remote sites.

從SCADA的角度來看，一些主要的都市地區(qū)，包括底特律、芝加哥、圣地亞哥和華盛頓特區(qū)，都依靠Ovation SCADA系統(tǒng)監(jiān)督大型而復雜的、需要監(jiān)測多大100個遠程站點的水和廢水基礎設施。

“When it comes to supervisory control and remote monitoring solutions, no one else can come close to the combination of power, turbine and SCADA experience Emerson offers,” said Yeager. “As power producers diversify their energy portfolios, they can feel comfortable relying on Emerson – a familiar name with decades of relevant experience – for all their control needs.”

Yeager說道：“當人們談到監(jiān)控和遠程監(jiān)控解決方案時，沒有其他的解決方案可與艾默生提供的電力、渦輪和SCADA體驗組合解決方案相媲美。作為多樣化其能源組合的電力制造商，依靠艾默生這個擁有數(shù)十年相關經(jīng)驗的的熟悉名字，他們可以對于所有其控制系統(tǒng)的需要感到很放心。”
