If a steam header pressure drops, operators often over-fire the boilers. Without a predictive model, you cannot see the domino effect. The Aspen Utilities Planner allows for instant scenario analysis ("If we shut down Turbine A, how does that affect CO2 emissions and power import?"). Reliability If a steam header pressure drops, operators
“We found we were running an extra boiler unnecessarily during summer months. Planner recommended shutting it down and using turbine extraction + letdown. Saved $400k/year in natural gas.” “The marginal cost report showed our HP steam was actually cheaper to produce from the cogeneration turbine than the gas boiler – we reversed our operating strategy.”
