Plant performance calculation Key benefits
Plant performance The PPC offers a multitude of

calculation (PPC) software from the benefits in a power plant both at
power generation applications the operator level as well as at the
group of Kalki is a readily operations management level.
deployable, flexible and easy to Some of these key benefits offered
use performance calculation include:
software. PPC provides online
performance calculation as well as • Online performance data allows
extensive report generation for minimization of losses and
facilities that enable a generation optimized operation
utility to maximize the benefits • Ease of use and configuration
from a DCS implementation. allows minimal user training
PPC calculations are based on

relevant performance test codes and faster user buy-n
