Stedin serves more than 4 million customers in the Netherlands. For sustainability reasons, it adopted the International Electrotechnical Commission’s standard 61850, which establishes an international standard for communication in power generation facilities and substations. Stedin used the AVEVA PI System and custom PI Connectors™ to connect its infrastructure with substations and, as a result, it met the international standards while improving its asset visibility and moving toward its goal of real-time asset management.
“When you have the data, you can use PI Vision to visualize this data and actually get some value from it.”
