Power Generation

To minimize forced outages and their associated costs, power generation plants need modernized control systems that utilize algorithms built with efficiency in mind. You need to be able to quickly adapt to dynamic changes in your region's energy demands, as well as unforeseen circumstances such as a Power Plant Trip. Our engineers understand that your application is unique, so we go through the process of understanding your specific needs, then design a control system focused on your specific equipment and how it integrates into your plant, from gas turbines (Aero-Derivative and Industrial i.e. Frame units), steam turbines, Hydro Turbines and Diesel Generators for power generation.

Petrotech also has specialized expertise in electrical and mechanical engineering to numerous different customer requirement standards. Our control systems are designed to provide a high degree of flexibility and scalability, thus ensuring reliable control and monitoring of the turbomachinery assets, control systems and operations.

To learn how our updated control systems provide a Power System Operator (PSO) the ability to restart their turbomachinery Generators for Black start operations, see our white paper, "GE Frame 5 - Black Start Capabilities."
