Emerson has launched its Ovation Green portfolio, with the goal of helping power generation companies lead their customers through the transition to green energy generation and storage. The portfolio combines recently acquired Mita-Teknik software and technology with Emerson’s Ovation automation platform, creating a new extension of its energy-based control architecture.
The resulting portfolio focuses on the emerging clean energy market to provide simplified renewable energy automation to help power producers build and scale sustainable operations.
Renewable electricity capacity has experienced record growth in recent years. However, transitioning to cleaner energy systems or expanding existing ones is a complex task for energy producers. Wind turbines, solar arrays, lithium-ion batteries, hydrogen electrolyzers and hydroelectric power use a wide variety of software and automation technologies, Emerson’s statement said.
As renewable portfolios grow, the number of applied technologies will multiply, increasing learning curves and increasing the complexity of operations as solutions from different vendors require further integration. While some existing systems may provide very specific asset-to-asset connectivity layers, the Ovation Green portfolio will offer a single set of software and solutions specifically designed to support different technologies in a standardized and intuitive system.
“Countries around the world are focused on transitioning to a clean energy economy in the coming decades, and while green energy is a simple concept that everyone understands, the path to implementation is not always clear. it’s clear,” said Bob Yeager, president of Emerson Power and Water. solutions “With the Ovation Green portfolio, our software, support and solutions are unified into one system from one trusted supplier to help power producers manage their operations more quickly, easily and reliably of renewable electricity”.
Complete access to real-time and historical operations information allows owners and operators greater visibility and control of all renewable assets in the company. Through an integrated portfolio of data-driven asset management and control solutions, Ovation Green technologies provide secure and standardized access to data, regardless of equipment manufacturer or system type, in a single or multiple locations.
By gathering, collating and contextualizing vast amounts of data created by renewable generation and storage assets, Emerson’s Ovation Green portfolio provides a clear view of renewable operations in a seamless space. The portfolio will leverage actionable intelligence from a unified platform to drive faster, more informed decisions to increase availability and production while reducing operations and maintenance costs.
