VR SOP Training for Power Generation Plants

Safer start-ups, smoother changeovers and faster recovery

Modern plants juggle complex controls and high-energy systems. Spark designs bespoke VR training that mirrors your boilers/HRSG, turbines, generators, fuel handling and switchyards—so teams rehearse MOPs and EOPs safely.

Pain points we fix

  • Start-up/shutdown: purge, ignition, ramp rates and protection checks.
  • Fuel systems: gas skids, biomass feed and trips.
  • Electrical: synchronising, load sharing and islanding.
  • Emergency: fire, leaks, loss of cooling and black start.

Bespoke build pathway

  1. Capture procedures: MOP/EOP, one-lines and setpoints.
  2. Create scenarios: cold start, hot restart, fuel trip and grid events.
  3. Coach in VR: interlocks, hold points and verification steps.
  4. Assess: right-first-time, time-to-safe-state and missed checks.

Benefits

  • Fewer incidents and faster recovery from trips.
  • More consistent operations across shifts.
  • Audit-ready competence for utilities and regulators.
