Power Generation Control Rooms for Operational & Process Visibility

At Evans, we understand the importance of continuous network monitoring to minimize safety risks and economic losses. Our power plant control room enhances the operator’s output for critical monitoring, identifying areas to improve overall plant reliability, optimizing process performance, and protecting asset uptime.  

Your power plant control room should be built for your needs and Evans is here to make it happen. Evans solutions are configured to meet your specific requirements for the visibility of monitors and video management systems, communication, and collaboration with key stakeholders during abnormal situations. 

Selecting the appropriate products for the design of your power station control room impacts the operator’s output for network monitoring and responsiveness to critical operations. 

Types of Power Plant Control Room We Built:

  • Nuclear Power Plant Control Room: These are highly sophisticated and feature advanced safety systems. Due to the critical nature of nuclear plants, these control rooms are designed with numerous redundancies and emergency systems.
  • Thermal (Coal, Gas, Oil) Power Plant Control Room: These control rooms manage the operation of boilers, turbines, generators, and auxiliary equipment. The focus is on efficiency, emission control, and managing the varying loads.
  • Hydroelectric Power Plant Control Room: These control the flow of water through turbines. They manage dam gates, water flow, turbine speed, and power generation.  
  • Renewable Energy Plant Control Room (Solar, Wind, etc.): These control rooms monitor and manage renewable energy sources. For solar plants, this includes managing solar panels, inverters, and grid connections.
  • Combined Cycle Power Plant Control Room: Control rooms in these plants manage both types of turbines and heat recovery steam generators that utilize waste heat from the gas turbines.
  • Geothermal Power Plant Control Room: These manage the extraction of geothermal energy from the earth and its conversion into electricity.  

Improving Operator Alertness & Health

Our ergonomically designed power plant control room encompasses a variety of components and options to maintain alertness and readiness for the detection of anomalies, outages, alarms, and abnormal conditions. 

Refined over the years, our solutions have been adapted to address individual power plant factors such as lighting, temperature, air quality, and height by the operator, enabling peak performance. 

Our solutions consider the placement of equipment and range of motion that impacts an operator’s individual work environment and supports the continuous change and high stress levels present during abnormal situations.
