Emerson Process Management and Mitsubishi Power Systems Americas (MPSA) have extended their alliance for turbine retrofit projects in the Americas, the companies announced a POWER-GEN International 2013. The alliance brings together Emerson’s expertise designing and engineering automation and control systems for the power industry with MPSA’s extensive experience in gas and steam turbine technology and service.

“The success of our alliance with MPSA is a clear indication that power generators were hungry for an OEM alternative for their gas and steam turbine retrofits,” commented Bob Yeager, president of Emerson Process Management’s Power & Water Solutions. “Together, we’ve answered this unmet need in the marketplace and, in doing so, have given utilities enhanced turbine reliability, durability and operability, as well as long-term service and support that they may not have received from their turbine OEMs.”
