ABB software utilized for Chinese power plants

ABB will provide asset management software solutions for CNNP’s extensive new-build nuclear power plant program. An agreement has been signed between the two entities.

The EAM software from Ventyx is an industry-leading solution for the management of operations and maintenance in the nuclear power sector, helping customers to generate electricity safely and reliably. This order further validates ABB’s recent acquisition of Ventyx to bridge the gap between information technology and operational technology. It demonstrates that ABB can meet the diverse needs of its clients - including those in the most demanding environments - from a single source.

ABB will implement software and training programs at China National Nuclear Power’s nuclear power plants in partnership with the Research Institute of Nuclear Power Operation  and Computer Application Institute Nuclear Industry, both subsidiaries of the Chinese National Nuclear Corporation.

“ABB’s extensive technology portfolio and experience, combined with Ventyx’s successful track record of implementing power plant management software systems, provides a unique value proposition for our clients,” said Jens Birgersson, head of ABB’s Network Management business within the Power Systems division.
