GE\u2019s Distributed Power business signed a multiyear supply agreement with Aggreko plc, a global leader in the supply of temporary power and temperature control solutions, to connect up to 10,000 assets to GE\u2019s Distributed Power myPlant Asset Performance Management (APM) solution over the next five years.<\/p>\n
myPlant APM is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM)-agnostic, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solution for reciprocating engines and generators, which will provide Aggreko with a digital toolset to manage its equipment fleet. With more than 100 other data points being derived or added to each of the assets, Aggreko will be able to monitor a large variety of items. Analytics will help, for instance, predict oil lifetime and ensure the performance and uptime of the mobile power plant. The project represents the largest to date for GE\u2019s Distributed Power myPlant solution for reciprocating engines and generators.<\/p>\n
In addition to supplying power to customers in remote areas, Aggreko\u2019s emergency response capability also allows it to respond to emergencies of all sizes, such as restoring power to entire communities after a natural disaster. Complementing Aggreko\u2019s capabilities, the myPlant APM solution provides a cloud-based monitoring and diagnostics infrastructure to remotely manage the performance of Aggreko\u2019s reciprocating engine fleet of power plants. Aggreko will be able to gain real-time intelligence needed for better decision-making to achieve the desired outcomes and increase the assets\u2019 uptime at customer sites in various industrial sectors and events.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith Aggreko\u2019s globally mobile and geographically widespread fleet, this agreement will provide us with the ability to remotely monitor hundreds of thousands of sensors across our power generation fleet,\u201d said Dr. Volker Schulte, Group Manufacturing and Technology Director, Aggreko plc. \u201cThis will allow us to improve our performance and prevent system disruptions so we can better serve our customers around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
GE\u2019s Distributed Power myPlant APM solution for reciprocating engines and generators is aimed at improving uptime and efficiency, reducing lifecycle costs and driving operating performance and profitability. The myPlant offering uses secure, centralised cloud storage to collect the data from customers\u2019 gas, diesel, heavy fuel oil and solar photovoltaic-based power generation, distribution and energy storage equipment, regularly transmitting sensor data streams, control alarms and operational data.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy digitalising its fleet through the implementation of our myPlant APM solution across its global assets, Aggreko will be able to deliver power to its customers more reliably and efficiently,\u201d said Carlos Lange, President of GE\u2019s Distributed Power business. \u201cmyPlant will allow Aggreko to monitor equipment condition, performance and availability. With these real-time insights, Aggreko can make better decisions to reduce equipment downtime and operating costs.\u201d<\/p>\n
The project will be implemented across Aggreko\u2019s power generation fleet in multiple regions. The first site deployment for Distributed Power\u2019s myPlant solution is planned for the fourth quarter of 2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
