High-resolution image WATERTOWN, CONN （April 9, 2007） – Emerson Process Management announced today that it has been awarded a contract by npower renewables, one of the UK‘s leading renewable energy companies, to provide a wide area data gathering system to connect 19 active wind farms to their corporate headquarters, operations center, and regional centers, all in various locations within the UK. The wide-area data gathering solution will utilize Emerson‘s Bristol® OpenEnterprise software and will provide process efficiency with access to real-time operational data and historical information for all of the turbines throughout the network. The npower operations personnel and asset management and corporate users will all be connected through this wide area network. The system will also provide cost savings by replacing labor-intensive site visits with control capability to remotely start/stop and reset turbines, and remote security features such as security cameras and access monitoring. The OpenEnterprise database is recognized as an ideal platform for expansion to include data from the current hydro electric portfolio and future wind farms in the UK and Europe. Preserving npower renewables‘ investment in existing assets, OpenEnterprise uses open-architecture technologies to communicate with multiple brands of controllers and remote systems. The wide area network （WAN）, which links the wind farms to the operational and corporate data centers, will use a combination of technologies that range from 64K ISDN to 2MB ADSL communication networks. OpenEnterprise software features Object Mapping, which homogenizes data structures and reduces processing at data centers. Object Mapping also allows the communications throughput npower requires to provide real-time information to corporate users. Redundant servers will be installed at the npower IT center at Kingswinford. This data center will provide real time and historical data to the corporate headquarters at Swindon, the operations center at Dolgarrog, and regional centers in Wales and Scotland. Using a broad variety of open communications, web servers, and technologies including ActiveX, JDBC, OLEDB, .Net, ODBC, OPC, OPC XML, and SQL, corporate users are kept fully appraised of operations. Installation and commissioning will be completed August 2008.
