Kenda wins contract to supply BETTA metering for British Energy
power stations
Kenda Electronic Systems has been awarded a contract
to upgrade the tariff metering at British Energy's two Scottish
nuclear power stations in preparation for BETTA.
The operational metering at the Hunterston and
Torness power stations was revised in 2002 when Kenda supplied
and installed its Operational Metering Summators linked to the
ICIS Genset Performance Monitoring System.
Now Kenda is bringing the tariff metering data
collection into line with the systems at all of British Energy's
other power stations in England and Wales.
As well as the replacement of existing outstations
with Kenda Meteor outstations and associated equipment, the
contract provides for the installation of local collector stations
at each site.
Following the commissioning of the new equipment,
there will be a period of parallel running prior to registration
under the BSC (Balancing & Settlement Code). The old equipment
will finally be removed after 'Betta Go Live', which takes place
on 1st April 2005.
Kenda also recently supplied its OMS and Meteor
outstations for installation at Scottish Power's Cockenzie,
Longannet and Cruachan power stations.
