Electronic design automation (EDA) and design tool vendors for substation monitoring systems
Substation Monitoring System |
Rising government investments in improving IoT-based communication networks and modernizing power plants are propelling the company's growth. Furthermore, the segment is seeing an increase in the penetration of monitoring solutions to efficiently analyze and automate facility data. The communication network is critical in power plants because monitoring devices and Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) located at substations must be routed through utility data centers located elsewhere. Technological advancements, such as innovative communication and SCADA technologies, will power the substation monitoring system.
Substation monitoring is now an essential
task in order to ensure consistent power supply to end-users. Transmission and
distribution substations provide electricity to various loads based on
end-users and voltage levels. There are various monitoring methods available,
including wired and wireless technologies, and wireless communication
technologies such as GPRS, GSM, and Ethernet. Specific parameters such as
current, frequency, voltage, current, temperature, and power factor are
monitored by substation monitoring systems. A substation
monitoring system is made up of various pieces of equipment such as
circuit breakers, transformers, relays, APFC panels, and so on.
The data processing and transmitter unit, the
load and measurement system, and the receiver and PC display unit comprise the
substation monitoring system. Substation monitoring systems are widely used in
the segment to improve reliability, operational efficiency, and economic
benefits. The benefits of developing the IEC 61850 standard to allow
interoperability amongst IEDs and advancements in the power ecosystem through
several growth strategies, such as mergers & acquisitions, contracts &
agreements, partnerships, expansions, and product developments, will provide an
impetus to the substation monitoring system growth. The surge in CAPEX
associated with the installation of sensor networks is anticipated to hinder
the substation monitoring system growth.
The hardware segment accounted for the
majority of the company's share and will gain a significant share as a result
of its implementation in the mining, steel, oil and gas, and transportation
industries. In electrical substations, hardware components such as
microcontrollers, smart sensors, IEDs, cameras, distribution network feeders,
and smart sensors are being built, and they help in the collection of real-time
data, thereby providing an uninterrupted power supply in several industries,
resulting in significant growth in the hardware substation monitoring system.
