Origin Energy sought to replace the aging proprietary SCADA control system attached to their Gas Turbines in the original plant of the Quarantine Power Station. This would provide a more usable and maintainable system, providing them with greater flexibility to enhance and alter based in line with their business requirements.

SAGE worked with Origin to design, prove and implement a solution that satisfied all the requirements of the project and the business.

The SAGE project scope included:

• Work with the client to establish and capture the solution requirements
• Evaluate the solution requirements to determine the most suitable software products for the application
• Design the proposed solution
• Perform a proof of concept trial on the proposed solution
• Implement the solution and commission
