Siemens Energy unveils advanced power transmission solution

DUBAI, April 14, 2021

Siemens Energy has announced the launch of SensSolution - claimed to be the world's first power transmission solution with holistic cloud connectivity and designated web application suite - at Hannover Messe, Germany. 
 
SensSolution enables the secure transmission of substation data to the cloud, allowing for valuable real-time analyses and monitoring, supporting system operation and availability as result, said a statement from the company. 
 
Siemens Energy will deploy SensSolution to its complete transmission solutions portfolio, starting now with high-voltage direct current systems (HVDC).
 
Today’s transmission grid operators face an abundance of challenges including the increasing share of renewables in the grid and their hard-to-predict feed-ins. 
 
Digitalisation offers many opportunities to meet these challenges through the intelligent use of data available in substations, it added. 
 
Unveiling the new solution, Siemens Energy said it will deploy SensSolution to its complete transmission solutions portfolio, starting now with high-voltage direct current systems (HVDC).
 
Today’s transmission grid operators face an abundance of challenges including the increasing share of renewables in the grid and their hard-to-predict feed-ins, it stated. 
 
"SensSolution is the next logical step in our journey to fully unlock the potential of digitalization in energy transmission," remarked Beatrix Natter, the Executive VP Transmission at Siemens Energy. 
 
"By combining our vast experience gained in both fields, turnkey transmission solutions and connective transmission Sensproducts, we are now able to offer our customers. SensSolution as a new digital layer for a maximum of transparency and improved operational efficiency of transmission solutions," he stated.
 
According to him, SensSolution processes all available data from substations to a cloud-based platform where the operators can access different applications and dashboards to gain insights on a system’s actual status. 
 
This enables operators to plan ahead and make the right decisions to ensure optimized
operation, handle imminent failures, schedule maintenance work or plan long-term investments, he stated.
 
Natter said the operators can directly access the customised results via the internet on the SensSolution portal, location independent, and receive alarms in case of critical events. 
Knowing the exact status of all power transmission assets in the system will enable the operators to increase the overall availability and reliability of their systems, he noted. 
 
Based on a modular users’ rights role concept the operator can decide to share substation data with different operations, maintenance and planning teams, and Siemens Energy. 
 
Specific visualisations and reports can be created by a mouse click, thus enabling a
new level of seamless support and co-operation to handle acute problems and maintenance tasks, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
