Case Study: FuelCell Energy, Inc. achieves secure remote monitoring and alarm management with Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions

FuelCell Energy, Inc. - Customer Case Study

FuelCell Energy, Inc., a world leader in high‑temperature hydrogen fuel cells, needed a robust, secure Human Machine Interface to monitor and remotely control its stationary power plants as standalone systems. To meet requirements for secure remote connectivity, OPC-based communications, a rich GUI and reliable alarm handling, FuelCell Energy deployed solutions from Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions — specifically GENESIS32 Enterprise HMI/SCADA, WebHMI and AlarmWorX32.

Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions implemented an ICONICS-based system with roughly 20 rich graphical screens, Web-enabled remote HMI, distributed alarm/event management and SQL Server data logging with Kepware OPC connectivity to GE Fanuc controllers. The deployment delivered real-time remote monitoring and control, immediate operator alerts for alarm/event conditions, seamless integration into existing Windows environments, and has kept FuelCell Energy, Inc. satisfied and using ICONICS tools for over two years.
