Mind the controls gap: Long-term strategies for lifecycle management

Rising demand from AI data centers, electrification, and industrial growth is placing new pressure on the grid, and it's increasing the need for dependable, responsive power generation. As turbines continue operating for decades, the control systems that help keep them reliable, available, and secure must evolve at the same pace. Controls Lifecare Services Multi-Year Agreements (CLS MYA) help power producers close that lifecycle gap with a proactive strategy designed to strengthen control system reliability and support the performance of the connected asset.

CLS MYAs combine long-term lifecycle planning with Remote Diagnostic Services, giving operators a clear modernization roadmap and 24/7/365 expert support to help keep critical controls current, resilient, and ready to meet changing grid requirements.

Join our webinar for an expert-led discussion on how CLS MYAs provide an OEM-led path for software updates, patch validation, hardware lifecycle management, and cyber compliance that will help your controls evolve with your plant’s operational demands and the reliability needs of today’s energy grid.

During this session, you will:

• EXPLORE how rising grid demand, OT cyber requirements, component obsolescence, and I&C skills shortages may increase control system risks that can affect plant reliability and availability.

• DISCOVER how CLS MYAs can support a gradual shift from reactive support to proactive lifecycle planning, with flexible investment levels to help keep critical systems current, supported, and reliable.

• UNDERSTAND how proactive controls management can help reduce downtime risk, support asset availability and help enable more predictable plant operations through real-world examples.
