Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corp. (Toshiba) today announced that Toshiba JSW Power Systems Private Ltd. (Toshiba JSW), its Indian subsidiary for engineering, manufacturing, and servicing of power plant equipment, has signed a contract with NTPC Ltd—India’s state-owned power generation company—to provide a centralized monitoring system for 165 thermal and renewable energy power plants. These plants are owned and operated by NTPC or its joint ventures, including plants currently under planning.
This contract marks NTPC’s first deployment of a plant monitoring solution of this kind. Scheduled to commence operation in 2027, the system will also integrate EtaPRO, Toshiba’s advanced plant monitoring software, which currently supports 763 GW of power generation capacity in more than 60 countries worldwide.
This system uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze real-time operational data collected from sensors installed in individual power plants. It delivers early detection of signs of abnormality in plant equipment, and carries out root cause analysis to prevent unwanted consequences. The system also uses the monitored data to automate and manage maintenance processes, significantly reducing the occurrence and duration of plant shutdowns. It also analyzes data accumulated over time, and uses the results to enhance the accuracy of anomaly prediction and to improve maintenance efficiency.
