Adani Electricity has inaugurated a new Network Operations Centre (NOC) in Mumbai, to ensure reliable power supply to over 31.5 lakh households and establishments.
In a release, Adani Electricity said that the NOC is equipped with the latest Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system powered by India’s first fully functional Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS). This new hub is a significant leap forward in redefining how Mumbai experiences electricity, providing a futuristic solution to power management, the release said.
The NOC powered by ADMS is a new technology set to revolutionize Mumbai’s power distribution. It collects data from a network of sensors, which is then analysed in real-time to give a complete picture of the city’s electricity infrastructure. This allows for a more proactive approach to power distribution, as potential problems can be detected and addressed before they become significant issues for customers.
This allows the NOC team to predict and prevent outages, faster restoration of faults and optimize network efficiency. Besides, the ADMS seamlessly integrates renewable energy sources like solar and wind, promoting a greener tomorrow.
The Adani NOC has unique features:
- Adani Electricity’s network is protected by strong, multi-layered security measures that keep it safe from cyber threats. This ensures that the power flow remains uninterrupted and reliable.
- Real-time information about the network is available on advanced dashboards and displays. This provides a clear understanding of the situation and helps to make informed decisions.
- ADMS offers new engineers, a training platform that mimics real-world scenarios without affecting the actual network.
Reliable and efficient network
The launch of the Adani Network Operations Center with India’s first ADMS marks a major highlight for Adani Electricity and for Mumbai’s power landscape,” stated Kandarp Patel, Managing Director of Adani Electricity. “Adani Electricity is making Mumbai’s power network more reliable and efficient. By using advanced technology, the power network can predict and fix problems faster, improve the flow of electricity, and contribute to a greener future. This will make the city brighter and more resilient.”
Advanced situational awareness
According to AspenTech spokesperson, M V Rudresha, “AspenTech is proud to partner with Adani Electricity to enhance Mumbai’s distribution system through our OSI monarch software platform. As a partner to Adani Group, we digitally transform them by optimizing the assets to run faster, longer, safer and greener. The ADMS platform is not only relevant for today, but it is future ready. It will create an ecosystem for analytics-based monitoring and maintenance practices in the interest of Adani Electricity’s customers. The system will enable AEML to enhance the services being provided to 31.5 lakh Mumbaikars through advanced situational awareness and quick response to the events in the network.”
