Metso will increase the supply of hydroelectric power at the Inkeroinen and Anjalankoski power plants in Finland by renewing the automation in the four water turbines. Due to its control characteristics, renewable, clean hydroelectric power offers a superior backup for the reliable supply of electricity and can also help manage sudden disturbances. The reliability of the turbine and its automation plays an important role in electricity generation.
Three turbine logic systems at the Inkeroinen power plant and one at Anjalankoski will be replaced by Metso DNA automation systems, which will be used to manage, control, protect and optimise the water turbines. Metso will provide the system with updates and versatile services well into the future to support the investment life cycle.
