Many households and businesses need access to electricity. Demand for electricity is derived from the requirement for electricity in order to operate domestic appliances, office equipment, industrial machinery and provide sufficient energy for both domestic and commercial lighting, heating, cooking and industrial processes. So it is also viewed as a public utility as infrastructure.
The electric power industry is commonly split up into four processes: electricity generation such as a power station, electric power transmission, electricity distribution and electricity retailing, and these processes are often integrated together. So the industry is generally heavily regulated, government-owned and operated.
EVOC’s embedded technology has been wiy applied in such fields as computer control in power plants, transformer substation automation, power grid dispatching automation, power load management, MIS (management information system), CAD (computer aided design) and scientific experiments. These applications include SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), EMS (Energy Management System), QA and MIS.
