ENTERPRISE SOLUTION

Power Management System Software ETAP Real-Time™

Enterprise Solution

ETAP Enterprise Solution for real-time power management systems is a fully-integrated suite of software applications that provides intelligent power monitoring, energy management, system optimization, advanced automation, and predictive simulation.

As a component of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, ETAP optimizes the exchange of information between diverse tiers of an organization while channeling domain-sensitive information.


Operations

The ability to seamlessly integrate process information with electrical system constraints is essential to a reliable operation. Virtual testing of operator actions (predicting system response) prior to implementation can reveal potential problems, hence reducing human errors and the risk of service interruptions. ETAP assists operators in making informed and logical decisions to reduce operating costs and improve system reliability.


Engineering

As the world leader in power system engineering analysis tools, ETAP integrates with data acquisition devices to provide actual system operating condition for the purpose of real-time simulation. ETAP takes the guesswork out of system analysis.


Financial

ETAP interfaces with existing accounting and billing systems to provide up to the minute energy usage and fuel cost information while providing recommendation and prediction scenarios to minimize peak power consumption and eliminate tariff penalties.


Maintenance

Real-time maintenance alerts and assessments of system components ensures just-in-time predictive maintenance of critical plant equipment. Mean-time-to-repair and mean-time-to-failure rates are calculated to evaluate the network and equipment online reliability indices. This translates into cost reduction and prevention of expensive unplanned shutdowns.


Planning

System planners can improve performance of production scheduling thus increasing the system capacity using adaptive planning tools provided by ETAP’s trending and prediction functions.


ETAP POWER MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE OPTIMIZES THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION PROCESS, REDUCES LOSSES, AND INCREASES PROFITS.

Energy Management System Software – EMS™

ETAP Energy Management System (EMS) is a suite of energy management software tools used to monitor, control, and optimize the performance of generation and transmission systems. This intelligent energy management software control system is designed to reduce energy consumption, improve the utilization of the system, increase reliability, predict electrical system performance, and as well as optimize energy usage to reduce cost. ETAP (EMS) Energy Management System applications use real-time data such as frequency, actual generation, tie-line load flows, and plant units’ controller status to provide system changes.


There are many objectives of an energy management software, including an application to maintain the frequency of a Power Distribution System and to keeping tie-line power close to the scheduled values. In ETAP’s Energy Management System, scheduled values will be maintained by adjusting the MW outputs of the AGC generators so as to accommodate fluctuating load demands. The energy management software application will also calculate the required parameters to optimize the operation of the generation units under energy management action.

Intelligent Fast Load Shedding Software – ILS™

Intelligent Load Shedding is a model-driven load shedding system with predictive solutions optimization techniques that improves response time and makes fast, optimum, and reliable load shedding decisions, with conditions such as instantaneous response to disturbances, loss of generation, unplanned outages, and restoration.


Predictive Load Shedding calculates the minimum required MW to be shed for each subsystem according to the type and location of the disturbance, actual operating generation, spin reserve, loading, configuration, load distribution, and priority. Predictive Load Shedding then selects the best combination of loads that will satisfy this requirement. All of this is executed in less than a few milliseconds after a disturbance occurs in the system for transient events or after user-defined time delay for steady-state overload conditions.

Why ETAP Proactive Load Shedding is Unique
  • Intelligent Load Shedding is an integral part of ETAP. This model based load shedding system is a patented technology that works directly with the ETAP one-line diagram, analysis modules, and real-time applications.
  • This model driven load shedding system works on a concept of prediction of system response to different disturbances under the actual system operating conditions.
  • Intelligent Load Shedding provides fast optimal load shedding solutions under both transient and steady-state system conditions.
  • Automatic Load Shedding provides the operator the capability to change the load shedding priority, logic, and schedules directly from the one-line diagram with user-friendly interfaces. For any changes, ILS automatically updates the ILS Controller programs.
