In the pursuit of innovation and the strategic deployment of technological interventions in power distribution, TP Southern Odisha Distribution Limited (TPSODL) has taken a significant step forward by establishing a SCADA-enabled APSCC (Area Power System Control Centre) at Seriguda in the Rayagada Circle. This milestone not only underscores TPSODL’s commitment to advancing its operational capabilities but also positions the company as the pioneering utility in Odisha to fully implement APSCCs across all circles.
The implementation of APSCCs by TPSODL signifies a dedicated effort to enhance the management of the electrical network, streamline outage response, and expedite power restoration processes. Operating ceaselessly, these APSCCs are poised to revolutionize the power distribution system, presenting swift and effective solutions to address disruptions in the power supply.
Expressing his satisfaction with the accomplishment, TPSODL CEO Amit Garg said, “We’ve successfully established APSCCs in all circles, marking a significant stride in our commitment to operational excellence and customer satisfaction. Leveraging advanced technology, we are confident in our ability to deliver a consistently reliable and high-quality power supply to our esteemed customers in Southern Odisha.”
One of the pivotal advantages of the APSCC lies in its real-time monitoring capabilities, facilitated by the implementation of the SCADA system. This empowers the operational team to receive timely information about power situations, enabling swift communication with consumers through SMS services and a centralized call center. The SCADA system plays a crucial role in expediting power restoration, minimizing downtime, and substantially elevating the reliability and quality of the power supply.
