Energy Communications & Operations Hub

 

PSI's premier product is our Energy Communications & Operations Hub (ECOH)

The ECOH system is a real time, web based software solution using the very latest technology and open architecture. The benefits of the system are :

  • Automates the communication between external parties for the dispatch, nomination and scheduling of assets between the plants, trading floor and third parties. Allows for resource planning, day ahead and real time operations, scheduling and handling of de-rates and outrages. Eliminates the need for phone / faxes between parties such as the plant and schedulers and minimizes the potential for miss-communication.
  • Allows for online, real-time monitoring and management of assets with comparative tracking of actual vs. scheduled MW production and fuel consumption.
  • Provides for real time alerts customized for all involved parties so events are known immediately, allowing for immediate action and reducing risk and exposure.
  • Online access via the internet is available to all authorized parties providing all with 24 hour access from work, home or any travel location. All parties can view decisions related to their assets and share operational performance in real time without having to wait for weekly or monthly reports.
  • Real time visibility coupled with full audit trails; improves communication and becomes a valuable tool in negotiating conflict situations as well as improving trust and cooperation between parties with differing objectives. Fully Sarbanes-Oxley” compliant.
  • As primarily designed as a communications hub, allows for easy integration into the Enterprise and seamless exporting of data in EXCEL, PDF, CSV and other formats.
  • Allows for rapid deployment with implementation in hours instead of traditionally taking months. New plants can be fully integrated in weeks with long lead times associated with installing new communication times eliminated.
