Jeffrey Immelt of GE has called upon industry to adopt the same “hurry up” pace endemic to Silicon Valley. This statement was made in conjunction with the initiative to maximize the value of information communicated by machines. This information can be used to improve operations and maintenance. GE outlines impressive advantages of massive machine to machine communication. This leads to speculation that the information generated by pumps, valves, fans, etc. could be worth more than the equipment itself. McIlvaine is currently conducting a series of webinars for a large U.S. utility which is considering optimization systems offered by GE, Siemens, Emerson, Doosan and others. Better machine communication can contribute a NOx reduction of more than 10 percent. However, since the utility needs to achieve at least 70 percent reduction at four plants, optimization will only be part of the strategy. It now appears that the most cost effective solution is a combination of five or more technologies. For this specific project the solution could involve… Click Here For Complete News Release Text
