Digital twin innovation

In the face of aging infrastructure and reactive maintenance cycles, a leading Northeast utility found itself constantly one step behind equipment failures. The traditional approach of scheduled inspections couldn’t keep pace with increasingly unpredictable power demands.

Turtle engineered a breakthrough solution: digital twins for critical high-voltage assets that mirror their physical counterparts in real time. Now, transformers, generators, and breakers communicate their condition directly to operators, revealing previously invisible patterns and preventing disruptions before they cascade across the grid.

What once required physical inspection now unfolds on vibrant, easy-to-use monitoring dashboards, where potential issues are flagged weeks before they would become noticeable to the human eye.

Modernizing energy resilience

When millions of New Yorkers turn up their thermostats during winter’s grip, they’re unknowingly depending on a critical LNG facility that must perform flawlessly under pressure, while maintaining uninterrupted service. 

Working alongside Rockwell Automation, we implemented advanced control systems and cybersecurity-hardened networks that transformed an essential but outdated facility into a responsive, intelligent energy asset. The modernized systems now provide operators with unprecedented visibility, allowing them to anticipate demand surges and respond seamlessly to save resources and labor hours, while delivering better customer service. 

This transformation represents how urban energy infrastructure can meet the demands of a city that never sleeps.

Microgrid mastery

Creating a massive urban development project from scratch presented unprecedented energy challenges. The visionary developers envisioned not just buildings but a self-sufficient community capable of operating independently from the traditional power grid. 

Working closely with the Hudson Yards team, we developed an innovative switchgear solution that became the nervous system for Hudson Yards’ groundbreaking microgrid, enabling intelligent energy management and seamless transitions between the national grid and local generation. This invisible infrastructure allows the neighborhood to respond instantly to power disruptions, price fluctuations, and demand changes. 

Today, residents and businesses experience a new kind of energy security, one where lights stay on and systems continue running even when surrounding areas go dark.

Emissions intelligence

Across twelve energy facilities spanning three states, operators struggled with outdated emissions monitoring systems that created compliance risks and reliability concerns. Manual readings and aging equipment left too much room for error in an increasingly regulated environment. 

Our team implemented Rockwell Automation’s ControlLogix programmable controllers to create a continuous emissions monitoring ecosystem. This transformation converted a regulatory burden into a strategic advantage, allowing operators to optimize performance while ensuring environmental standards are maintained around the clock. 

What once represented a constant source of concern has become a showcase of environmental stewardship, demonstrating how responsible energy production can coexist with stringent emissions control.
