Emerson introduces Ovation SCADA for Wind Energy

艾默生为风力发电推出Ovation SCADA系统

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.

匹兹堡12月20日消息——艾默生过程管理为风力发电管理推出了Ovation SCADA系统。Ovation SCADA系统具有先进的监测、控制和诊断功能，优化风力发电厂的运行。用于风力发电管理的SCADA系统是艾默生可再生能源SCADA解决方案产品组合的一部分，其他的还包括水电和太阳能发电。

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.

风力发电管理Ovation SCADA解决方案的推出正是时候。世界风能协会预计总装机容量大约从2006年的7万4千兆瓦增加到2010年的16万兆瓦，增加接近54%。根据艾默生水电解决方案部总裁Bob Yeager的说法，随着能源公司通过在单个电厂增加发电机数量或者经营多个电厂来扩大发电量，他们对高效率和有效地管理这些资产的需要逐渐变得越来越重要。

“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解释道：“除了优化各个单独风力电厂的运营，Ovation SCADA系统还可以用于管理一整片的风力电厂。能够连接多个活跃的风力电厂到企业总部或者营运中心为提高效率、节约成本和更好的整体管理资产提供了进一步的机会。”

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系统支持所有主要OEM厂商生产的风力涡轮发电机，以及多种通信网络类型，例如拨号、租用线路以及无线技术。Ovation SCADA系统提供了远程启动、停止、复位和标定个别风力涡轮发电机的能力，最大限度地减少劳动力密集型的现场考察。一旦达到某些预先设定的现场条件，Ovation SCADA系统自动执行保护性的监督停机。例如，振动条件可以通过来自观测塔传输到Ovation SCADA系统而获得的气象数据监控到。一旦振动超越安全运作限度，Ovation SCADA系统就会启动涡轮停机，避免任何设备或者区域的损害。

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.

来自涡轮、观测塔和变电站的诊断信息可通过网络接口从Ovation SCADA系统里得到。存储于Ovation历史数据的诊断信息允许创建定制的图形化趋势，以监测电厂内的各种设备和条件。SCADA系统允许用户跟踪风力涡轮发电机的维修时间表和历史，并获得定制报告。艾默生的SCADA系统还提供了一个工具，在基于已知因素，例如风速、风向和涡轮发电机状况的基础上，预测预定时间内的发电潜力。

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.

艾默生是唯一一家为新兴的风力发电市场应用提供其SCADA系统的合格供应商。从电力的角度来看，艾默生是原油、核能和可转化能源发电厂控制系统的领先供应商，其安装在电厂的控制系统占了大约30万兆瓦的发电量，相当于美国平均高峰用电需求的40%。艾默生还在蒸汽、燃气和锅炉给泵涡轮控制解决方案的设计、安装和支持领域处于领先地位。

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.

从SCADA的角度来看，一些主要的都市地区，包括底特律、芝加哥、圣地亚哥和华盛顿特区，都依靠Ovation SCADA系统监督大型而复杂的、需要监测多大100个远程站点的水和废水基础设施。

“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说道：“当人们谈到监控和远程监控解决方案时，没有其他的解决方案可与艾默生提供的电力、涡轮和SCADA体验组合解决方案相媲美。作为多样化其能源组合的电力制造商，依靠艾默生这个拥有数十年相关经验的的熟悉名字，他们可以对于所有其控制系统的需要感到很放心。”
