Telvent Selected to Implement Smart Grid
Solutions for Progress Energy
Telvent technology will enable the utility to bridge
the gap between its enterprise network and activities in the field, delivering
real-time data for critical decisions
Telvent has been selected by Progress Energy Florida
(PEF) to engineer, design and implement Telvent’s OASyS SCADA solution to help
the utility better serve its more than 1.6 million electric customers.
Telvent will implement its supervisory control and
data acquisition (SCADA) system, OASyS DNA, allowing PEF to receive reliable,
real-time information from the field. This data is presented in a user-friendly
interface, seamlessly integrating with the utility’s current software. With
Telvent managing PEF’s distribution network and maintaining its operational
integrity, PEF will have enhanced reliability and the capacity to make faster
operational decisions, increase distribution efficiency and enhance customer
satisfaction.
According to Telvent’s chairman and CEO, Ignacio
Gonzalez, “Integrating these advanced tools is one of the best ways a utility
can gain the information necessary to improve efficiencies while updating its
infrastructure. We are proud to serve Progress Energy Florida and its
customers’ needs and look forward to seeing the positive results.”
