Further control system contract at Lynemouth
23 May 2011
Following the successful delivery of our control system on one of Lynemouth power station’s three coal-fired units, Rio Tinto Alcan have again employed Capula to deliver the control systems on the remaining two.
The units, each with a generating capacity of 140MW, are supplied by four Pulverized Fuel coal mills and will benefit from a control system centred on Rockwell Automation’s ControlLogix and iFix SCADA platform.
Delivering improved operational efficiency of the mills, the implementation of the new control system will help lower emissions of the station, meeting regulatory targets in the process. The project is due for completion in autumn this year.
“Capula enjoys an excellent working relationship Rio Tinto Alcan,” said Capula’s Chief Executive Roger Turner, “And winning this additional work reflects very positively on the calibre of our delivery on the first unit, not to mention the quality of our support. We look forward to successfully delivering on this further project and continuing to develop our relationship with Lynemouth.”
