All thermal power plants convert heat energy into mechanical energy, and then into electricity. This is done by using heat to turn water into steam and then directing the steam at a turbine. The steam turns the turbine blades, converting heat into mechanical power. This in turn runs the generator, which creates electricity. Shifting demand and instability in global energy markets has persuaded many power generators to search for practical, cost-effective solutions for their power plant operations to meet rising demand and maintain complex plant equipment.
The Solution
From free standing power plants to on-site cogeneration facilities for industrial customers, the Trans Globe Power a trusted management to monitor critical power generation assets across the world. Trans Globe Power generation solutions to implement energy strategies to model output, demands, and rates, and thereby minimize energy costs and maximize natural resource usage. Trans Globe Power SOP based startup-shutdown routines, boiler and burner management. By focusing on abnormal situation management, human reliability, and constant improvement, Trans Globe Power’s certified engineering staff can design, build, simulate, commission, and help maintain the plant.
Our unique vision for the project required Trans Globe Power engineers to re-imagine the design of the plant in order modernize its safety systems and allow for easy and timely cost-efficient upgrades. Secondly, existing equipment had to be re-purposed for the new plant, requiring new, modern graphics and visualization techniques to be implemented. Lastly, development of an intuitive training system that allows new operators to easily adapt to the new process control system was mandatory to ensure operator efficiency.
Through the duration of the project, Trans Globe Power provided around-the-clock, on-site support until the turbines were started up, and the newly minted power plant became fully operational, with a highly trained operator corps behind the helm.
