Can Your Plant Keep Up? Modernizing Existing Assets for a More Demanding Grid

As electricity demand grows and grid operations become more dynamic, existing generating assets are being asked to do more than ever before. Increasing data center loads, renewable integration, and evolving compliance requirements are creating new challenges for plant operators. Join Emerson experts as they discuss practical strategies for improving reliability, strengthening cybersecurity, maintaining grid compliance, […]

Collaboration may not be a choice as screws tighten on CC plants

2025 POWER USERS COMBINED CONFERENCE RECAPS Combined Cycle Users Group Steam Turbine Users Group Generator Users Group Power Plant Controls Users Group Future electricity demand growth accelerates. Supply chain constraints intensify. Carbon emissions rules ease. Existing combined cycle (CC) major equipment from the last boom (1997-2003) closes in on original end-of-life dates. Construction of hyper-scale data

PPCUG: Better controls, smarter data sharpen plant performance

Centralized relay data management (DMA) was the topic presented by a specialist from a Florida utility along with engineers from Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories Inc. Objectives were cybersecurity-, physical-security-, and operations improvements. End results reported are managed and monitored Intelligent electronic device (IED) passwords, active device setting monitoring, and improved time from an IED event to diagnosis

GUG: Generator failures reinforce value of inspection, spares

Planned and emergent field replacements and repairs are top of mind for most every O/O with a sizable GT fleet. A representative from a Florida utility covered experience during a major FA.03 to .04 upgrade outage in 2024 at an 1100-MW 4×1 CC in commercial operation since 2003-2004. The title of the preso, “Two Fields Down,

Continuous visibility, fewer surprises with condition monitoring

Cutsforth recently held two technical webinars, one on brush failures and another on generator field monitoring. Taken together, they made a point many plants already know in their bones: generator-side trouble usually does not arrive out of nowhere. More often it builds in the gaps between inspections, in spots that are hard to see, awkward

The invisible cost of capacity: Closing the declaration gap in volatile markets

In the current era of grid transformation, a plant’s declared capacity is no longer just a static figure in an offer sheet. It has become a dynamic driver of both margin and risk. For many combined-cycle operators, the daily ritual of capacity declaration, often handled through aging spreadsheets and “rule of thumb” adjustments, is leaking

Pump health audit sharpens outage planning

Planned work outages are an exercise in efficiency and preparation. As global power demand continues to increase, plant operators are compelled to execute required maintenance within increasingly shorter outage windows. The pressure on already stretched labor resources and the strict O&M budgets compounds the challenge of outage planning. Getting better information on equipment health offers
