Siemens Korea participates in ‘BIXPO 2019’
Siemens Korea participated in ‘The 5th Bitgaram International Exposition of Electric Power Technology’ (BIXPO 2019), held at Kimdaejung Convention Center, Gwangju, from November 6 to 8. Under the theme ‘Be Energy Intelligent’, Siemens Korea showcased its innovative technologies in the electric power sector leading digitalization in the Industrie 4.0 era as well as introducing new energy systems that will become growth engines of the future.
Major exhibits included world's first 170kV eco-friendly vacuum interrupter(VI), world’s fastest medium-voltage outdoor vacuum circuit-breaker, Fusesaver, cloud-based integrated energy management application Energy IP powered on MindSphere, cloud-based virtual protective relay(IED:Intelligent Electronic Device), SIPROTEC Digital Twin, next-generation HL-class gas turbine SGT-9000HL with industry’s highest performance, 450MW eco-friendly Vacuum Type Generator Switchgear, digital solutions for power plant efficiency improvement, and Power Monitoring System for maximized cost saving and energy efficiency. The world’s first 170kV eco-friendly VI, which was showcased during the exhibition, is a core component of eco-friendly gas insulated switchgears (GIS).
Furthermore, together with Siemens' next-generation HL-class gas turbine SGT-9000HL, digital solutions that boost up power plant efficiency and reliability were also introduced. Both gas turbines and digital solutions are already being applied as key components at combined cycle power plants in Korea.
“With the highest urbanization rate among OECD countries at 92%, Korea is facing a consistent increase in the growth potential of smart infrastructure-related markets, including smart city. Cloud-based integrated energy management solutions, intelligent buildings and smart infrastructure systems integrate the quintessential technologies of Industrie 4.0. With these, Siemens Korea will lead the industry through maximization of cost savings and energy efficiency.” said Mr. HaJoong Chung, Head of Siemens Korea Smart Infrastructure(SI). "We are confident that maximization of generating efficiency and profitability can be achieved with the highly efficient HL-class gas turbine aligned with the government policy.” said Mr. BumJun Suk, Vice President of Siemens Korea Gas and Power. Mr. Suk concluded “With the development of digital solutions, Gas and Power at Siemens Korea will continue its efforts to drive mutual growth and exchange with domestic businesses that have outstanding industrial infrastructures.”
