Reliability and stability

Compliance means a stable and reliable energy supply, fewer disruptions, and consistent performance

Commercial risk protection

Non-compliance can lead to hefty fines and legal issues. Investing in compliance upfront saves you from costly penalties later

Market access

Increasingly, in most parts of the world, no compliance means no business

Reputation and trust

For manufacturers, compliance shows your commitment to industry standards and best practices, enhancing your reputation and building trust with customers and partners.

Addressing a top priority for the power sector

As a mandatory certification process, grid code compliance impacts all companies involved in the production of equipment for renewable and conventional power generation plants as well as the utilities running those plants.

Simulations and grid code compliance are also critical topics for hydrogen production facilities to correctly size their plant and invest in the right equipment from the design phase.

A solution for every challenge

Companies preparing for the ABB solutions and services are faced with many challenges, from generating accurate mathematical models of third-party equipment all the way to demonstrating that simulations and studies reflect the actual plant behavior.

Relying on a trusted technology partner with deep expertise in the subject matter is crucial for the success of the project.
