UWB technology helps smart power plants

2024-08-02/ By Admin

Smart power plant is a new type of power plant model that combines modern information technology with traditional power plant operations. Smart power plants make full use of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and intelligent control to achieve intelligent, digital, and efficient production, management, and operation of power plants.

In terms of production, intelligent sensors and monitoring systems are used to collect real-time equipment operation data, conduct accurate equipment status monitoring and fault warning, and improve equipment reliability and power generation efficiency. In terms of management, with the help of digital management platforms, resource allocation can be optimized to achieve refined personnel management, material management, and cost control. In operation, based on big data analysis and intelligent algorithms, accurate market forecasting and power scheduling are carried out to enhance the market competitiveness and economic benefits of power plants. In short, smart power plants aim to improve the safety, reliability, economy, and environmental friendliness of power plants, and adapt to the development trends and market demands of the energy industry.

UWB technology helps smart power plants achieve efficient safety management

1. Real time positioning and trajectory management of outsourced personnel

In addition to regular employees, there are also numerous outsourced teams in the power plant. However, the quality of outsourced personnel varies greatly, and they lack awareness of objective hazards and safety risks. To minimize the probability of safety accidents, in addition to conducting safety awareness education and training exams, it is also necessary to strictly control on-site behavior. With the help of UWB technology, it is possible to accurately locate the real-time position and trajectory of outsourced personnel, while setting up electronic fences. In this way, not only can the on duty status of outsourced personnel be effectively monitored and counted, but the system can also automatically send alarm information when outsourced personnel enter key or dangerous areas, thereby reducing safety operation risks, and accurately assessing the working hours of outsourced personnel.

2. Personnel behavior violation management, shifting from passive to active

In various types of operations in power plants, violations of regulations often occur, which can easily lead to safety accidents. In order to completely eliminate violations and nip hidden dangers in the bud, an electronic fence is created through UWB high-precision positioning system, which combines "technical defense" with "human defense" to promptly issue local and remote warning prompts for violations such as intrusion into dangerous areas, overstaying, personnel falling alarms, lack of supervision, and failure to wear safety helmets. AI videos are linked to identify and capture violations, ensuring that safety risks are 100% controlled and building a "safety barrier" for smart power plants.

3. 'Two votes and three systems' management ensures controllable processes

The "two votes and three systems" is one of the most fundamental systems in the safety production guarantee system of power plants. Traditional management methods have shortcomings in real-time correlation with time and space, making it difficult for managers to visualize and trace the behavior of workers in real-time. Virtual electronic fence, automatically granted and revoked permissions based on the start and end times of two assignments. At the same time, the risk information of the area can be pushed to relevant operators to achieve risk prevention and control.

In addition, for the inspection personnel in the patrol inspection system, their on duty status management is implemented, and the task progress and inspection trajectory of the inspection personnel are automatically generated to ensure 100% execution of tasks and improve the standardization of inspection operations.
