Honeywell to automate Korean hydro power plant

霍尼韋爾為韓國水力發電廠提供自動化系統

Chuncheon, South Korea, August 28, 2007 – Honeywell will automate production at Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power Plant Co.’s (KHNP) hydro power plant in Chuncheon. The $2.1 million agreement with contractor Halla E&E calls for Honeywell to supply its Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) R300 to more efficiently manage operations – everything from turbine operation to dam control – and improve business performance at the 145 GWh per year facility.

8月28日消息——霍尼韋爾將為韓國水電和核電廠公司(KHNP)位于春川的水電廠提供自動化生產系統。這份由承包商Halla E&E公司提供的價值兩百一十萬美元的合同要求霍尼韋爾提供其Experion過程知識系統(PKS)R300，以更有效率地管理所有的操作——從渦輪的操作到大壩的控制，以及提高這個每年發電145GWh的電廠的業務表現。

KHNP is Korea’s largest electric power company and supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s electricity. Located on the Bukhan River in the northern area of South Korea, the Chuncheon facility is one of KHNP’s nine hydro power plants in the country. In addition to electricity, the plant provides water for homes, farms and industry and plays an important role in flood control.

韓國水電和核電廠公司是韓國最大的電力公司，供應著全國大約40%的電力。春川電廠位于韓國北方地區的布漢江，是韓國水電和核電廠公司在韓國的九個水電廠之一。除了電力，該發電廠還提供了家庭、農業以及工業用水，而且在洪水控制方便扮演著重要的角色。

Currently, the facility operates on a decentralized control system. Experion, which ties together critical subsystems throughout a facility, will increase efficiency at the plant by giving operators greater access to critical information from a single point. For example, operators can remotely control the dam gates from the Experion operating console in the main control room and monitor the turbine operation from the same station. With this greater access to information, KHNP’s people, process and assets can be more effective, resulting in improved productivity and reduced costs.

目前，該電廠使用著一個分散式控制系統。在整個電廠內把關鍵子系統配合起來的Experion系統將通過給予操作人員可以從一個單點更好地使用關鍵信息，改善電廠的效率。比如，操作人員可以從主控制室內的Experion操控臺遙控大壩的水閘，以及從同一地方監視渦輪的運轉情況。通過更好地使用信息，韓國水電和核電廠公司的人員、過程和資產可以更有效率，從而提高生產力，減少成本。

“Tying together systems at a 42-year-old facility poses great challenges, but the payoff for KHNP will be even greater,” said Soon-Tai Kim, Hydro Power Manager of KNHP. “Honeywell is an ideal partner for this project because of its ability to meet tight project schedules, to improve plant profitability with solutions that drive reliability and efficiency, and its overall integration expertise.”

韓國水電和核電廠公司水電站經理Soon-Tai Kim表示：“在一個具有42年歷史的電廠里要把各個系統連起來挑戰不小，但是對于我們公司的贏利將更可觀?；裟犴f爾是這個項目的理想合作伙伴，因為其能力可以滿足項目較緊的時間表，其解決方案可靠而有效率，可以改善電廠的利潤率，以及其全面的整合專家力量。”

In addition to Experion, Honeywell also will provide project management and engineering services. The upgrade is scheduled for completion in mid-2009.

除了 Experion系統，霍尼韋爾還將提供項目管理和工程服務。該升級計劃在2009年中完成。

“Across the world, there is a greater demand for cleaner energy, and shifting the Chuncheon facility’s current operations to an integrated approach is an effective way to meet that demand,” said Simon Park, regional general manager for Honeywell Process Solutions Korea. “Experion will give the operators more insight into how the plant is functioning. This can lead to better decisions that make the plant more reliable and efficient, enhancing its value and giving KHNP a competitive edge in hydro power production.”

霍尼韋爾過程自動化韓國區域總經理Simon Park表示：“在世界各地，對更清潔能源的要求更大，而把春江電廠目前的運作向一個集成的方法轉移是滿足這個需求的有效辦法。Experion系統將使操作人員更了解電廠是如何運行的。這可以帶來更好的決策，使電廠更可靠、更有效率，增加價值，使韓國水電和核電廠公司在水力發電上更具有競爭優勢?！?/P>
