INTRODUCTION
Natural Power is a renewable energy consultancy managing more than 175 assets in the UK, Ireland and the United States. The company monitors and controls clients’ assets from a command center in its Scottish headquarters. The company had outgrown its original small control room and decided on an ambitious expansion plan to support a fast growing client base.
As part of the plan, Natural Power wanted to create an improved working environment for operators who were often working long hours under stressful conditions. This would enable it to meet requirements for 24x7 monitoring and a more flexible, responsive service. Electrosonic worked closely with design and build consultants Space Solutions to provide audiovisual design, installation, programming and commissioning for the biggest, independently operated 24/7 control room in the UK.
