Balance of plant automation engineering and integration

You get paid to keep fire in the boilers, steam in the pipes and electricity in the wires. You know neglected balance of plant systems can significantly reduce power generation efficiency and reliability as well as trigger regulatory non-compliance. Yet balance of plant systems often suffer because of time and staff constraints.

The engineers of the RoviSys Power and Energy Group can help. Our decades of power utilities engineering expertise are backed by 3,000 projects of control automation experience. You can confidently partner with us to upgrade, replace and integrate supporting systems throughout your plant.

Usable, supportable, integratable

Are flexibility, expandability and supportability critical to your operations? We prepare recommendations and implement systems with user requirements, support economies and future flexibility in mind.

As one of the leading independent controls solutions providers in North America, we are able to recommend and implement whichever technology or combinations of technologies, including those based on standards and open systems, that best suit your needs and preferences.

In addition, you will receive documentation that enables you to support your RoviSys’ engineered solutions through us or however you prefer.

This includes your legacy control systems and consoles. Our staff includes people with key responsibility for the technical development of major instrumentation and control systems widely used in the power industry. We developed and market legacy migration tools used by leading automation vendors and companies.

You might have a specific project in mind or be interested in discovering how improvement and integration of your current balance of plant control systems can enable you to produce power more efficiently and reliably. Discuss your requirements and goals with Dave Smrdel, manager of the RoviSys Power and Energy Group.
