Power Plants
Contel is one of Israel’s leading industrial automation and control companies, providing a unique, end-to-end portfolio of engineering and technology services for power plants and energy generation facilities. Unlike vendors specializing in a single discipline, Contel delivers all the critical technologies required to design, build, modernize, secure, and maintain power generation facilities under one roof.
Our multidisciplinary expertise in industrial control systems, electrical engineering, continuous emissions monitoring, OT cybersecurity, and field services enables us to execute complex projects from initial engineering through commissioning and long-term lifecycle support, while providing a single point of responsibility for the entire project.
Power Plant Control Systems (BOP / DCS)
The control system is the operational heart of every power plant. Contel designs, implements, integrates, and maintains advanced Balance of Plant (BOP) and Distributed Control System (DCS) solutions for all types of power generation facilities.
Our capabilities include:
- Control system architecture and engineering
- PLC and DCS software development
- HMI and SCADA systems
- Full integration of plant-wide control systems
- Modernization and migration of legacy control systems with minimal downtime
- Process data historians and operational reporting
- FAT, SAT, commissioning, startup, and performance testing
Our engineering teams have extensive experience delivering automation projects for conventional power plants, combined-cycle power plants (CCGT), cogeneration facilities, renewable energy plants, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
Electrical Systems and EPC Services
Contel provides comprehensive electrical engineering and execution services for power plants, from detailed engineering and panel manufacturing through on-site electrical installation and commissioning.
Our capabilities include:
- Power plant electrical engineering
- Design and manufacturing of electrical and control panels
- Motor Control Centers (MCC)
- Low-voltage distribution boards
- PLC and control panels
- UPS and critical power systems
- Electrical installation and contracting services
- Site installation, wiring, testing, and commissioning
Our manufacturing facility produces electrical and control panels in accordance with the highest international standards, ensuring quality, reliability, and full compliance with project specifications.
Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS)
Environmental compliance requires highly accurate and reliable continuous emissions monitoring systems capable of providing real-time emissions data while meeting increasingly stringent regulatory requirements.
Contel designs, supplies, integrates, and maintains Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) for power plants and energy generation facilities, ensuring full compliance with the requirements of the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection.
Our solutions include:
- Complete CEMS engineering and system integration
- Advanced gas sampling and analytical systems
- Seamless integration with DCS and SCADA platforms
- Environmental reporting and regulatory data transmission
- Calibration, quality assurance, and periodic performance testing
- Long-term maintenance and support services
- Regulatory compliance consulting and lifecycle support
Our extensive experience enables plant operators to achieve accurate, reliable, and continuous emissions monitoring while maintaining maximum system availability and full regulatory compliance throughout the facility’s lifecycle.
OT Cybersecurity for Critical Energy Infrastructure
Power plants are part of a nation’s critical infrastructure and have become a primary target for increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Protecting Operational Technology (OT) environments is therefore essential for ensuring operational continuity, safety, and regulatory compliance.
Contel is one of Israel’s leading providers of industrial cybersecurity solutions for the energy sector, with extensive experience securing dozens of power generation facilities and critical energy sites across the country.
We provide complete cybersecurity solutions for facilities classified under the Israeli Ministry of Energy’s Level A Critical Infrastructure requirements, including:
- Cybersecurity risk assessments and gap analysis
- Secure OT architecture design
- Regulatory consulting and compliance support
- Network segmentation and secure zone architecture
- Industrial firewalls and OT security technologies
- Continuous threat detection and monitoring
- Hardening of servers, workstations, PLCs, and industrial devices
- Secure remote access and identity management
- Compliance assessments and audit preparation
- Ongoing maintenance and managed cybersecurity services
Our unique advantage lies in combining cybersecurity specialists with experienced automation and process control engineers, enabling security solutions to be implemented without compromising plant availability, reliability, or operational performance.
