Power Generation & Distribution

In the power generation and distribution market, maintenance-free power backup systems and IEC 61850-based power transmission & distribution systems are rapidly becoming much more important. This trend helps increase energy efficiency while also helping protect our environment and natural resources. Advantech is proud to provide reliable Embedded Automation Computers, Industrial Managed Switches, Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) and Touch Panel Computers to serve this cause.

Applications
Power Generation
Power generation is the process of creating electricity from different energy forms, such as nuclear, thermal, hydro, or renewable power. As many industrial companies seek to reduce our footprint on the environment, more efficient power and energy is becoming a critical issue. Power backup systems help maintain a continuous supply of electric power which not only lends to the overall efficiency, but more secure and safe systems.
Power Transmission & Distribution
A power substation is a subsidiary station of an electricity generation, transmission and distribution system where voltage is transformed from high to low or the reverse using transformers. Nowadays, multiple protocols exist for substation automation, which include many proprietary protocols with custom communication links.
