ABB has surpassed a 10-gigawatt (GW) milestone in delivering its automation solution for renewable energy plants in India. Starting with a 100-MW project about seven years ago, this milestone has strengthened ABB’s footprint in the renewable energy industry, resulting from over 300 renewable energy projects across India utilising ABB’s IoT-based PLC solution.

ABB’s PLC-based SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) system is an automation control solution that helps gather and analyse real-time data to run the plant optimally and enable low maintenance. With this, operators can also easily monitor and analyse key parameters of the plant and get complete visibility of plant operations. Delivered as part of ABB’s Drive Products offering, the utility-scale SCADA solution helps reduce the cost and risk of investment in operating renewable energy plants.
