PVO-Vesivoima and the University of Oulu Create Advanced Turbine Regulators Using AI-Powered Technology from Rockwell Automation
07.08.2025 - 18:05:42"I benchmarked all the automation companies, and no one else had a solution for this except Rockwell Automation," said Tommi Hansen-Haug, operations specialist at PVO-Vesivoima. "A big advantage for us was that we not only had access to the university's superior expertise in control theory and mathematics, but also support from an industrial automation specialist, which itself is a distributor of class-leading hardware and software solutions."
The new control solution has been created to address the rapid response required for participating in reserve-market power delivery – a regulation from Fingrid, Finland's state-owned electricity transmission grid operator to maintain the stability of the country's power grid frequency. To date, PVO-Vesivoima is the only Nordic energy company to meet the stringent new regulations.
