Intercom & Safety Solutions for Energy and Public Utilities
Intercom for Energy and Public Utilities Power to the World Harsh industrial environments, multi-site networking and complex internal infrastructures of facilities like power plants, water reservoirs or gas storage depots create challenges which sometimes make it difficult to keep the whole systems running. Schneider Intercom offers comprehensive and highly customised communication and security solutions that reduce the risk of failure, increase security of your workers and maximize your operational efficiency. Energy Transportation Power plants generate the energy the world needs. People around the world depend on electrical energy, and your plants are the indispensable bridge from power generation to energy consumption. Thermal Power Plants Nuclear, fossil and geothermal power plants play a substantial role in energy production. Incredibly big facilities and related industrial areas with many workers on-site need to be dealt with on a daily basis. Water Treatment & Storage Water treatment and storage utiltities are indispensible. Without any water purification, reservoirs, tanks or water towers, pump stations and treatment facilities, the world would face serious problems, especially when it comes to the availability of drinking water. Renewable Energy Solar Parks You want to prevent strangers from entering your solar park? You want to diminish the risk of theft of solar panels or vandalism? At the same time, you want guaranteed access for your workforce and service companies? From a centralised control room you can easily manage and surveil several solar parks without sending out lots of security staff. Renewable Energy On- and Offshore Wind Power Stations Your wind park does not consist of three wind turbines, but rather of 10 or more? You need to be constantly in contact with your maintenance workers but are not personally on site? Mobile phones often do not work? Communication in windparks offshore and onshore is an essential topic and needs highly reliable communication solutions. Renewable Energy Hydro Power Stations Constant noise, continuous maintenance, but little time? Hydro Power Stations face challenges of different kinds. Effective communication systems that reduce background noise and deliver high-end speech quality make the whole communication process a lot easier and reduce maintenance time.

Protecting Critical Infrastructure - | NIS2 and RCE Directive
To ensure the viability of critical infrastructure , like power suppliers or oil plants , operators must be able to prove that all possible Cyber Security options are being used to protect their workers as well as their systems. For exactly that matter, the directives NIS2 and RCE are currently debated in the European parliament. They are going to expand the current regulations on information security and fail-safety of critical operators which becomes even more essential in times where cyber attacks are anything but rare. If you are interested in cyber security in the industry, we have a podcast suggestion for you: Click here to listen in (only available in English).

I sistemi interfonici e le loro applicazioni
I sistemi interfonici sono, da molto tempo, gli strumenti di elezione quando si tratta di gestione della sicurezza di edifici e strutture. Negli ultimi anni, in particolare, si sono evoluti e adattati, fino ad arrivare a costituire la spina dorsale delle comunicazioni di sicurezza di edifici o infrastrutture, arricchendosi sia nel numero di funzionalità, per esempio l'eccellente qualità audio in qualsiasi condizione di rumore o magari più semplicemente il video, sia di applicazioni, come il controllo e la gestione di accessi e allarmi. Ma cosa definisce un sistema interfonico? Scopriamolo
