Plant control will evolve into high sophisticated software. The business model of controllable power plants will change focus form steady state operation of flexibility.. Development processes of software will be applied to control design and implementation. Control guys will be bothered with real world s non linearity. Innovation will be boosted with respect to modeling. On- and offline Optimization. Diagnosis. Operator guidances. Page 14
