ABB, the power and automation technology group, announced that it has signed an agreement with China National Nuclear Power (CNNP) to provide enterprise asset management (EAM) software solutions for the company’s extensive new-build nuclear power plant program.

The EAM software from Ventyx is an industry solution for the management of operations and maintenance in the nuclear power sector, helping customers to generate electricity safely and reliably. This order further validates ABB’s recent acquisition of Ventyx to bridge the gap between information technology and operational technology. It demonstrates that ABB can meet the diverse needs of its clients - including those in the most demanding environments - from a single source.

“ABB’s extensive technology portfolio and experience, combined with Ventyx’s successful track record of implementing power plant management software systems, provides a unique value proposition for our clients,” said Jens Birgersson, head of ABB’s Network Management business within the Power Systems division.
