In a bid to bolster its grid management capabilities, the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has rolled out a cutting-edge Generation Dip/Loss Detection System (GLDS). This innovative technology is designed to swiftly identify and respond to sudden drops or dips in power generation across the network.

Announcing the deployment, general manager of public affairs at TCN, Mrs. Ndidi Mbah, highlighted the significance of the GLDS in enhancing grid management. She emphasised that this deployment stands as a testament to TCN’s commitment to advancing grid management capabilities.

Operating from the National Control Centre (NCC) in Osogbo, the GLDS equips grid controllers with advanced tools for real-time monitoring and analysis of grid performance. Its intuitive interface allows for parameter setting, continuous monitoring of power generating stations, and comprehensive reporting functionalities, enabling prompt responses to grid disturbances.

Powered by sophisticated data analytics and machine learning processes, the GLDS can analyse real-time data to detect patterns associated with sudden generation loss. By employing anomaly detection techniques, it promptly alerts grid controllers to deviations from normal grid behavior, facilitating proactive intervention to prevent widespread disruptions.

Moreover, TCN has strengthened communication between the GLDS and Internet of Things (IoT) cloud servers, enabling rapid response and coordination of mitigation strategies. This connectivity underscores TCN’s commitment to bolstering grid resilience and ensuring uninterrupted electricity delivery nationwide.

Prior to the GLDS deployment, TCN engineers developed an in-house IoT technology solution to address the challenge of limited visibility of power generators. Strategic deployment of IoT devices across power stations and substations has significantly expanded visibility, allowing TCN to monitor grid load more effectively and identify potential issues before they escalate.

The integration of GLDS and IoT technology marks a significant step forward in TCN’s efforts to maintain grid stability and reliability. These initiatives empower grid controllers with crucial insights to proactively address challenges and minimize disruptions, demonstrating TCN’s dedication to meeting the evolving demands of the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI).
