When reliability matters most, modernization delivers results. This case study highlights how a utility upgraded its dual-fuel black start units with Emerson’s Ovation gas turbine control system to support faster, more confident grid restoration.

Discover how the project delivered:

  • An 80% faster startup time.
  • Real-time condition monitoring and remote access.
  • Doubled the compressed air capacity for more frequent starts.
  • Over $110,000 in annual savings from improved efficiency and reduced maintenance.
  • Greater operational visibility and control across the fleet.
