Drax aimed to implement a connected industrial data platform to support its data science teams and prevent pellet pipe blockages by monitoring pressure readings. Previously, manual data retrieval took at least 30 minutes, and raw data volumes exceeded Excel’s capacity, with no live data tools available. By deploying AVEVA solutions, Drax cleaned raw data, increasing accessible data points tenfold. Engineers gained near-real-time insights to prevent blockages, schedule repairs proactively, reduce outages, and achieve significant cost savings while enhancing asset reliability.
