PRISM Energy Management Suite Our generation and transmission solutions address the diverse needs of these far-flung enterprises. G/T software is grouped into four categories: Control, Analysis, Security and Power Marketing. Control Automatic Generation Control Use digital algorithms to: Monitor area control errors Allocate power demands to generators Implement scheduled block interchanges Extend emergency assistance Implement economic dispatch setpoints Ramp generator units More... Power Factor Control Maintain the power factor at designated system locations by utilizing switched capacitor banks to maximize unity. More... Load Shedding Automatically disconnect specific non-essential customers in order to maintain system balance when the load demand exceeds supply. Voltage Control Utilize regulator control modules to generate incremental A/C control voltage while maintaining the regulation point. Transmission System Switch Order Create and test switching plans in advance of implementation. You can control actions in both series and parallel. back to top Analysis Short Term Load Forecasting Utilize historical load and weather data to forecast future system load. The Short Term Load Forecasting software runs automatically each hour and prepares a seven-day rolling forecast that allows resource allocation, power interchange and load management. More... Disturbance Analysis Collect transmission system disturbance information from the real-time database prior to, during and following a disturbance, allowing complete analysis and reporting. More... Economic Dispatch Calculate optimal economic factors for all generating units under dispatch in the system. Economic Dispatch software minimizes total generation cost by calculating the following costs and determining the optimal utilization points: Fuel costs Emission costs Operating/maintenance costs Network loss costs More... back to top Security Topology Processor Calculate power flow for single-, two- or three-phase unbalanced networks in both radial and loop configurations, linking the topology model with graphical system maps. The Topology Processor calculates Bus voltage and voltage drops Power and current injections Branch voltage drops Power flow and currents Real and reactive losses Power flow direction Loss distribution Voltage profile studies More... State Estimation Process system power measurements to obtain estimates of the magnitudes and phase angles of bus voltages. State Estimation automatically generates reports of abnormal system conditions and discrepancies between measured and estimated values. More... Dispatcher Load Flow Check all branch flows and bus voltages against specified limits in a real-time or study mode function. Dispatcher Load Flow allows control interchange between areas. Contingency Analysis Continuously monitor and determine which branch and generator outages pose the greatest system security threat. Contingency Analysis automatically employs contingency ranking techniques determined by you to monitor the system. Short Circuit Analysis Simulate distribution short circuit, including: single phase-to-ground fault; phase-to-phase fault; three-phase-to-ground fault.
