ROCKWELL AUTOMATION, INC.; Snowy Hydro Provides Peak Demand Power Using $12 Million Control Systems Solution from Rockwell Automation

November 18, 2009 @ Project, Program and Portfolio Management from Project Program and Portfolio Management

As part of a $12 million order from an electric power company, Rockwell Automation has supplied 15 of 33 new control systems planned for Snowy Hydro Limited, owner and operator of the Snowy Mountains Hydroelectric Scheme in Australia. The new control systems, to be located at seven different sites in the Snowy Mountains on the east coast of Australia, help Snowy Hydro improve revenues and control costs. "The enhanced monitoring and control is a key factor in delivering efficiencies and high service availability in the highly competitive national electricity market in which we operate," said Darryl Eager, Snowy Hydro manager of controls technology. "Establishing greater connectivity between different systems provides us with the controls and plant reliability that are essential to customer satisfaction and our continued success. Using its integrated architecture driven by ControlLogix, Rockwell Automation's solution provides unrivaled connectivity via a wide range of communications protocols."
