Control Solutions for Dependable and Efficient Industrial Power Generation
Industrial facilities depend on stable power to protect production, people, equipment, and critical processes.
Woodward supports onsite and captive power generation with control, fuel management, actuation, and power management technologies for factories, mines, processing plants, campuses, water facilities, and other energy intensive operations.
Our solutions support standby, prime, combined heat and power, microgrid, and behind-the-meter systems using reciprocating engines, gas and steam turbines, renewable resources, and battery energy storage.
Power Management
Woodward power management products help industrial operators coordinate onsite generators, utility connections, breakers, critical loads, and distributed energy resources.
Functions can include synchronization, electrical protection, load sharing, peak control, import and export control, load shedding, islanding, and restoration.
This enables facilities to maintain production through grid disturbances, manage energy resources more effectively, and expand from a single generator to a multi-source microgrid.
Engine Controls
Woodward engine controls and fuel system technologies support diesel, gas, and dual-fuel generator sets used for emergency, prime, continuous, and combined heat and power service.
They help deliver reliable starting, stable speed and load control, efficient fuel use, and responsive operation as plant demand changes.
Woodward solutions can support original equipment, packaged generator systems, and selected upgrades of installed industrial generating assets.
Turbine Controls
Woodward turbine controls, actuation, valves, and protection technologies support gas and steam turbine generator systems used in industrial power and cogeneration plants.
Applications include simple-cycle generation, combined heat and power, waste-heat recovery, and integrated utility systems.
Our solutions help manage turbine starting, speed and load, fuel or steam flow, protection, and coordination with facility-level power management systems.
Why Woodward?
Production Continuity
Helps maintain dependable power for critical processes, safety systems, utilities, and essential facility loads.
Energy Resilience
Supports grid-parallel and islanded operation so facilities can continue operating through outages or constrained utility conditions.
Efficient Onsite Generation
Helps coordinate generating assets and loads to improve fuel use, operating efficiency, and utilization of recovered heat.
Peak and Demand Management
Supports load control, peak management, generator dispatch, and import or export strategies within site operating limits.
Microgrid and Hybrid Integration
Helps combine engines, turbines, renewable resources, battery storage, and utility power in a coordinated architecture.
Scalable Modernization
Supports new installations and phased upgrades, from individual generator controls to multi-unit industrial power systems.
Fuel and Technology Flexibility
