Proven automation solution for CCPP

Valmet DNA Automation for combined-cycle power plants

Valmet's automation solutions for combined cycle and gas power plants

Valmet’s offering for combined-cycle power plants (CCPPs) features the Valmet DNA Automation System, delivering advanced control, monitoring, protection, optimization, and reporting capabilities. The system helps power plant operators produce energy safely, efficiently, and reliably - while minimizing costs and environmental impact.

Integrated machine condition monitoring, protection, and turbine control

Comprehensive performance analysis and reporting across the entire plant

Optimized, flexible operations with advanced process control integration

Scalable, high-performance automation architecture for long-term adaptability

Single solution for all plant equipment and processes

Valmet DNA Automation system provides a unified platform for the operation and monitoring of all plant equipment and processes. Turbine controllers are typically operated via the Valmet DNA User Interface. If the turbine is supplied with its own control system, Valmet DNA integrates seamlessly through communication links.

The system coordinates the control of gas turbines, heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs), and steam turbine generators (STGs) during both normal operation and disturbances.

Plant-wide control is managed through automatic generation control (AGC), which regulates plant load based on operator-defined setpoints or signals from a remote dispatcher.

Driving economical plant operation

In multi-unit plants or those with high-value rotating equipment, performance optimization, energy management, and condition monitoring are essential for cost-efficient operation.

Valmet DNA supports this with advanced Industrial Internet-based solutions and related services, further expanding the system’s capabilities and value throughout the plant lifecycle.
