The project is thought to be the largest display system (17x4 OVL-815) in China’s electric power generation industry and it has now successfully passed TEPC’s field inspection.

TEPC’s control centre is one of the pilot programmes for the construction of the Centraliced Control & Large-scale Operation Based National Electric Power System initiated by China’s State Grid Corporation. The display system must be constructed with high efficiency and quality, yet on a tight schedule. Barco won the project on the strength of its modular design and cutting-edge colour correction. During the implementation phase, Barco received high praise from the customer for its excellent installation efficiency and comprehensive, meticulous management.

The OVL-815 video wall includes Barco's advanced liquid cooling system, ensuring lower LED temperatures and thus a longer lifetime and an excellent viewing experience. In addition, Sense6 – Barco's own sensor technology – provides brightness and colour stability over time and across the entire display.

The Transform-A video wall controller makes it possible to display any type of video and data sources on any display configuration in an enterprise environment. Such an integrated platform will help TEPC achieve efficient, flexible operations, which will ensure stable and reliable monitoring and decision-making.

Mr. Wang Xu from the control room centre of TEPC commented: “Thanks to Barco’s professional support, we have successfully constructed our control centre’s display system. This display system – the largest one in China so far – helps strengthen the stability of our electrical power grid and reinforces our leading position in the industry. Moreover, Barco integrated ergonomics into the system design, which helped us eliminate roadblocks in determining indoor layout and visual angle. I believe this will play a significant role in accelerating the development of China’s national electrical power systems.”

Mr. Mun Fei Soo, VP Sales of Barco CR & SIM APAC, stated: “We are honoured to be able to provide a system that helps TEPC to reinforce their leading position in the power industry. Working with TEPC on this project also enable us to have a deeper understanding on the needs of this important industry.
