At 18:09 on November 15, 2020, a new generation of hydropower intelligent monitoring system based on domestic CPU and operating system was successfully put into operation in the 600MW unit of Goupitan Hydropower Station in Guizhou. This is another breakthrough after the first set of autonomous and controllable hydropower intelligent monitoring system in China was successfully put into operation in Huadian Hongjiadu 200MW hydropower station in December 2019. Goupitan Hydropower Station (5×600MW) is a landmark project in Guizhou Province to implement the strategy of “West power transmission to East”, and is the largest hydropower station that has been built in Guizhou Province.
This successful operation marks the mature application of hydropower control system in large hydropower stations in China. At present, the independent and controllable transformation of Unit 3 of Goupitan Power Plant has been completed, all indicators are normal, and indicators such as response speed and system reliability are better than national and industry standards.
