Fingrid Oyj, Finland’s largest transmission system operator, needed to find a smarter, more time-efficient way to analyze and visualize its data to better support the power system. The company found its answer in AVEVA PI System. After deploying its new solution, Fingrid Oyj has reduced manual analysis, enabled live-data modeling, and prevented numerous potential faults across three 400 megavolt amperes transformers.
“We have already detected anomalies and errors in the power system performance that we would have missed without the PI System. It’s hard to put a price tag on detecting these anomalies, but the consequence of power system disturbances can be quite significant.”

Goals
- Automate manual, time-consuming analysis and visualization processes.
Challenge
- Develop analysis algorithms for efficient use of measurement data to support power system analysis.
Solution
Results
- Reduced manual analysis, increased data use, and enabled automatic fault processing and live-data modeling of new ways to analyze and plan the power system.
