Siemens is modernizing the power distribution grids of the cities of Amritsar, Jallandhar, Ludhiana, Dehradun, and Faridabad in northern India. The objective of these projects is to improve the quality and availability of the power supply to residents as well as to reduce the downtimes in the event of blackouts in the entire grid. Siemens will implement its Spectrum Power network control system and equip the grid with SCADA/DMS functions (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition/Distribution Management System) for monitoring and control. The customers are three utility companies: Punjab State Power Corporation, Uttarakhand Power Corporation, and Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam.
For the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company, Mumbai, Siemens is equipping the power distribution grids of eight cities with turnkey monitoring and control systems (SCADA/DMS). This contract was awarded as part of the Indian government's energy development program.
The Spectrum Power SCADA/DMS system allows grid operators to monitor the network management and the flow of energy. Thanks to its web-based architecture, the system can also be monitored remotely. The modernization of the distribution grids will enable real-time monitoring and control of the grids, minimization of power losses, load management, load shedding, and efficient handling of disruptions in the grid and its restoration.
Jan Mrosik, CEO of the Siemens Energy Management Division, Siemens AG, said: "Our SCADA/DMS systems are being successfully used by numerous energy suppliers and grid operators in India, where – among others – our systems reduce the downtimes in the event of blackouts in the grid. With the new orders from northern India, as the leading supplier of grid automation we are consolidating and expanding our position worldwide."
