• GE工业互联网融合工业设备和分析软件，打造全球最高效的风电场

• 结合了传感器、数据网络和分析能力的风机可以实现最高的效率，可提高年发电量达20%

• 如果此项技术应用于今年安装的所有50GW风电场之中，可以为风电行业创造大约500亿美元的价值

2015年5月19日--通用电气（GE）公司今天宣布推出数字化风电场（Digital Wind Farm），这是一套动态的、可以联网而且适应性极强的风电系统，结合了世界级的风机和风电行业的数字基础设施。这一技术可以提高风电场的发电量最多可达20%，可以为风电行业创造大约500亿美元的价值。

数字化风电场采用工业互联网技术，可满足长期以来可再生能源对更高灵活性的需求，实现更有效地并网。

GE发电与水处理集团总裁兼首席执行官史蒂夫 • 伯兹表示：“更智慧的数字技术正在推动各行各业的转型，潜力最大的可以说是能源行业。现在问题的关键不在于是否要开始转型，而是要如何充分发挥数字化转型的潜力，这也是行业领导者与其它厂商的不同之处。”

Sailors know that wind can be a fickle servant and they’ve come up with ingenious ways to trap it in their sails. Wind turbine designers have recently developed their own tricks to beat the doldrums and build efficient wind farms for landscapes caressed with slow-moving wind.
One such machine is the GE 2.5-120 wind turbine – the numbers stand for 2.5 megawatts in output and 120 meters (393 feet) in rotor diameter. Last year, construction crews installed 14 of them at a wind farm near Rehborn, Germany.

Listen. The machines are talking. And as they communicate with each other (given we’re the ones who’ve designed the Industrial Internet for useful eavesdropping), we tune in and discover innumerable opportunities to improve they way they can work for us. David Parkinson, Regional IT Leader at GE Australia & New Zealand Oil & Gas, is something of a Dr Dolittle with these talking machines—he knows how to learn from their conversations. He explains how we we can engage in this data dialogue, and why we must.

Shopping in a big department store can quickly devolve from a simple errand to an odyssey filled with frustration. What section do they put the bath towels in again? Is there a route to take that avoids the chemical attack of the perfume aisle on the way to kitchenware? Where do they put the on-sale jackets?

For every showing of “A Streetcar Named Desire” in a big city, there’s a street packed with traffic on the way to the theater. Let’s face it, large urban centers may have culture and opportunity on their side, but they come with irksome baggage like congestion, air pollution and the lack of parking.
That baggage is getting heavier. Although half of the world’s population already lives in cities, the U.N. estimates that the number will spill over the 50 percent mark and hit 5 billion by 2030.

Henry Ford was fond of saying that “nothing was particularly hard if you divided it into small jobs.” He followed his own advice, built the world’s first large-scale assembly lines that cranked out millions of Model Ts every year, and left his competitors in the dust. Engineers are now taking Ford’s advice to the extreme and breaking down the factory into even smaller pieces: bits and bytes.
