Success Stories
Wallerawang Power Station, Australia
| Location: | Wallerawang, NSW, Australia |
|---|---|
| Order Date: | 1994 |
| Completion: | 1995 |
| Industry: | Power |
- Output/fuel: 1000 MW (2 x 500 MW), coal fired
- Owners: Delta Electricity, Australia
- Overview: Wallerawang power station is a major power plant in NSW owned by a corporatized government entity, Delta Electricity. Providing cost-effective, safe, and reliable electricity, the plant has played an important part in the development of the western coalfields.
Project
- Operation date: Unit 7 in 1995, Unit 8 in 1996 (after revamping)
- Project type: Instrumentation & Control (I&C) revamping
- Plant configuration:
Boilers: ICAL, Australia (CE design)
Steam turbines: Parsons Ltd., UK
- Overview: This project marked the entry of Yokogawa into the power generation market in Australia. The customer was looking for a solution that had proven high reliability in the then new CRT based control philosophy. Yokogawa Australia was able to demonstrate its experience in mission critical control in the process industries and provided CENTUM control equipment to replace the previous panel-based analog and relay-based control equipment.
（Solutions/benefits）
- Reliable products and extensive services achieved no DCS related trips:
Yokogawa made a comprehensive effort to provide highly reliable and fully engineered products together with Pacific Power International (PPI), the owner's consultant. Operator/engineer training on a replica simulator was executed by TechComm Simulation, Yokogawa's subsidiary. Thanks to this team effort, no plant outages have been caused by the control equipment since commissioning.
