Can we take advantage of Gen-AI to increase human efforts in industrial automation?
Jim Cahill
As the hype around generative artificial intelligences (Gen-AI) like ChatGPT, Gemini, Bing Chat, increases, there is a false belief that it will replace many human creative products like written content, computer code, technical documents, graphic works… So far, these affordable and free AI tools have been widely used to create content that has non-critical implications. But some concerns may arise, if we consider to…

The Future of Automation is Coming, and the Foundational Technologies are Emerging Today
Jim Cahill
For decades, or perhaps even longer, many manufacturers considered productivity and sustainability to be at odds with each other. Sustainability technologies were expensive, so they weren’t worth implementing because they would eat into profits. However, in the last few years, organizations across the globe have made a startling discovery: performance and sustainability are actually two sides of the same coin. This…

What can you expect during a modern turbine control retrofit project?
Jim Cahill
Whether it is onshore, offshore or newer airborne technology, wind power is playing a key role in the energy transition. With this continued growth in the wind power market, organizations are looking closely at how they can ensure their wind turbines—some of which may be decades old and outfitted with outdated technologies–can operate at peak efficiency. For numerous reasons—cost, delays due to supply chain shortages…

Modern Power Generation Requires Modern Solutions
Jim Cahill
Utilities around the globe are reacting to a public call to address climate change. The future of generation will call for new technologies that reduce emissions and provide more sustainable power. However, as James Fraser points out in his recent article in enerG magazine , power companies have avoided reacting to this change by a complete rip and replace of technologies. Utilities still need to provide reliable power…

Non-Intrusive Flare Header Technologies
Jim Cahill
At the 2024 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference , 4C Marketplace’s Steve Probst and Emerson’s Marcio Donnangelo presented Flare Headers Non-Intrusive Technologies. Steve opened the session by pointing out the financial benefits of continuous monitoring for many ESG-related projects. Having to implement mitigation strategies for compliance does not provide ESG credit, but doing it before it’s required does enable…

Don’t Replace—Retrofit!
Jim Cahill
Much of our attention on the rise of renewable energy has been focused on the United States and Europe, but the reality is that a trend toward increasing renewable electricity generation is happening around the globe. Nowhere is that more obvious than in India, where the government has set ambitious goals to reach net zero emissions by 2070 and meet 50% of its electricity requirements from renewable energy sources by…

AI is Coming, and it’s Time to Get Ready
Jim Cahill
There is a lot of talk these days about the rise of AI. It’s not only that the technology is so new and exciting, with so much potential to change the world. AI is also a hot topic because the global environment is right for the changes it can bring. A workforce shortage has left many organizations struggling to find skilled personnel who can operate their plants just as operations have become more complex to meet a changing…

What does Emerson do for Wind and Other Renewables?
Jim Cahill
A recent U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) report anticipates strong growth in wind energy deployments. I’m enthusiastic about the continued growth of renewables in general, and wind energy, in particular. Emerson has been supporting major utilities in the power sector for over 100 years. As power producers increasingly move into the renewable space, we are moving with them in nearly every space –hydropower, solar, battery…

Software-Defined Control Unlocks a Future of Flexibility
Jim Cahill
It seems as if the challenges facing process manufacturers have changed nearly overnight, with many operations teams now facing entirely different goals than just five short years ago. These new goals—increased sustainability, reduced energy use, optimal efficiency—are demanding a laser focus on flexibility in process control, which in turn is driving a push toward modernization. In his recent article in Control Engineering…
