For readers based in the U.K. or with travel plans that brings you there next week, I wanted to highlight an Emerson Power Generation Seminar & Technology Fair taking place next week. The first session will be October 22 in Glasgow and the second one will be October 24 in Birmingham.
Here’s the description of the event:
Safety, Security and Efficient Plant Operation. Running an efficient power generation plant efficiently, whilst faced with challenges of cyber security, safety and minimising downtime is not easy! Selecting the right technologies will not only help you reduce costs, but improve control of critical power generation processes, increase plant efficiencies and megawatt production, and realize a safe and secure environment for your business and workers.
Discussions will include:
Cyber Security – Enhance DCS Cyber Security in line with NERC CIP requirements without disrupting the performance of your systems or process.
Safety in Power Generation – A guide on the requirements set out by IEC 61508/IEC 61511 and an overview of the technology solutions to meet them.
SmartProcess – A description of predefined automation applications to achieve optimized asset performance for emissions compliance, temperature control, efficiency, and overall continuous operational improvement.
Turbine Control System Replacement – Explore the opportunities of a more flexible and efficient operation from your turbines.
The presentations run from 10:00 to 15:00 and include conference presentations and discussions, a technology fair and lunch.
Register here to attend either of the sessions or contact Karin Jones for additional information.
Also, make sure to bring your toughest questions to the Emerson power generation team.
