Digital Controls Upgrade Gives Industrial Plant Power Independence and Utility Curtailment
The Challenge
Obsolete controls and ignition systems leading to unreliable, unsafe power generation. Engines had long startup and synchronization times and were vulnerable to knock.
Our Solution
New digital engine controls, ignition and knock detection systems installed. Control room upgraded to allow for better monitoring and ease of operation.
Digital Controls Upgrade Gives Industrial Plant Power Independence and Utility Curtailment
Switchgears after modernizations installed.
An industrial plant had a set of nine on-site power natural gas generators for backup power to guarantee smooth, uninterrupted production in cases of instability or blackouts from utility power. Due to the power system's age, system startup proved long and power generation was unreliable. With an increased need for seamless standby power generation, they approached Peaker due to our experience and knowledge with natural gas engines and power system modernization.
