Benefits of ETAP - RT™ to Operators
Unified Approach from Modelling, Analysis to Operation & Real Time Analytics
Many operators, users have been using ETAP-PS™ for their power & network studies and planning as their corporate
standard. Thus it is imperative to integrate the ETAP model with the PMS for better operation support and planning.
ETAP-RT™ gives the platform for seamlessly importing the ETAP offline model to the PMS environment. ETAP will
provide the seamless platform for protection, maintenance, operation across operations.
Integrated Solution
ETAP-RT™ is a comprehensive Power Management System having integrated Generation Management & Control
System, Energy management System, load shedding, load management, load sharing, Predictive Power Network Analy-
sis etc. under one platform as per the projects standard specification.
Lower Cost
Tool for operate to define the what-if simulation and better operation strategy to save more energy and
increase in production. Reduces the need for power reserve equipment and the fuel to power it by economic dispatch.
1. Short-Term Savings
Optimal Supervisory Control
This saving in energy cost is due to the overall system optimization and power loss reductions. The savings value can
be estimated between $500 to $1,000 times the total loads MVA. This is based on the energy costs calculated for a 100
MVA cogeneration plant with $0.10 per KWhr import power. Savings may be considerably higher than this for systems
that have abnormal losses, circulation power, and/or energy cost penalties.
