            What is Virtual Commissioning and why is there so much buzz about it?

            August 24, 2017
            Power plants have their own unique lifecycle and are ever evolving. Whether it’s digitalization of analog, equipment upgrades, environmental systems or advanced control applications, chances are that your plant is consistently in some phase of commissioning new equipment and processes.

            Fidelity Matters: What “High-fidelity” Really Means

            June 21, 2017
            While all simulation vendors claim that they can provide high-fidelity power plant simulators, what does the term “high-fidelity” really mean? If you require a high-fidelity power plant simulator, either by law or by virtue, it is important to note that not all high-fidelity simulators are created equal.

            The Importance of "The Why" Before "The How" in Process Operations

            February 23, 2017
            The inside of a control room doesn't look the same as it did 30 years ago. Not only are the controls vastly more automated, those operating the controls are changing out more frequently.
