SUBSTATION AUTOMATION

Substations are the building blocks for any grid. Amtech has been automating those substations ensuring highest interoperability, thanks to international standards like IEC 61850, and providing grid operators and owners with highest efficiency and increased productivity. Without adequate protection those substations can quickly come tumbling down.

Amtech Grid Automation enables the digitalization of the grid so that our customers can improve reliability and ensure safe and clean energy supply to their consumers. Amtech’s substation automation systems offer a seamless and scalable solution for automating and providing visibility to power system networks.

Amtech’s intelligent Substation Automation System is used to manage the collected data for the purpose of system monitoring, evaluation, control, protection, and automation. Updating substation automation offers the opportunity to reduce operational and maintenance costs, increasing plant productivity with the aid of enhanced schemes as well as condition monitoring for circuit breakers, power transformers, etc.

Lead by our team of industry experts, Amtech can develop, integrate and deliver a complete automation system that is tailored to your specific needs and requirements. Solutions we are able to provide can be as straightforward as developing a local substation HMI to creating a complex solution that is integrated with SCADA or DCS systems and able to provide Fault diagnostic capability, Asset predictive diagnostics, Load shedding, and Secure engineering access.
