Ingula Pumped Storage Scheme: An IDX PROFIBUS success story

17 March 2016

Recently IDX (based on its PROFIBUS know-how) had the privilege of visiting the Ingula Pumped Storage Scheme to assist in the resolution of an issue preventing the completion of integration of vendor equipment from different suppliers at Unit 3.

We were pleased to see the story (below) reported in ESI AFRICA on 11th March 2016 (http://www.esi-africa.com/) that Unit 3 had commenced operation and had successfully synchronised to the national electricity grid.

Well done Kyle and Jackson!
