Tušimice Power Plant – Delivery of Supervision, Diagnostics and Optimization System of Individual Units

The implementation consisted in the delivery of the PowerOPTI optimization and monitoring system from I&C Energo a.s. and its configuration for the Tušimice power plant, in order to monitor and control the efficiency of the power plant in near real time.

On the basis of the detailed analysis of the modelled technology, thermodynamic models were designed and debugged for the detection, identification and elimination of gross measurement errors and the accurate recalculation of not measured quantities using the Data Reconciliation method.

A key system component is the on-line diagnostics on asset health and optimization of the thermal cycle using highly accurate empirical models (digital twins). The goal is the early detection and notification of device failures, or device operation in non-standard mode by comparing the current state with the predicted state determined by the model.

The implementation of the PowerOPTI system includes the configuration of operational and diagnostic screens, contextual graphs and KPI configuration, including sending of notifications to responsible users.

The PowerOPTI system at the Tušimice power plant has been in standard operation since 2018 and service support is provided by I&C Energo a.s.
