After introducing the Automation Extended program globally in early\nFebruary 2026, ABB (ASEA Brown Boveri) on Wednesday (February 25)\nemphasized the relevance of this program for the energy and process\nindustrial sectors in Indonesia during an Iftar gathering with the media\nin Jakarta.<\/p>\n
The Indonesian energy sector is undergoing a significant\ntransformation as the country strives to strengthen energy resilience,\nsupport sustainable economic growth, and promote long-term energy\nindependence. Amid this process, most of the existing infrastructure\ncurrently operates at a high utilization rate and must remain\noperational, while new and cleaner energy initiatives continue to be\ndeveloped.<\/p>\n
Automation Extended is designed to support and enable operators to\nmodernize and expand capabilities gradually, while maintaining stable,\nsafe, and sustainable operations. This approach is highly relevant to\nthe Indonesian energy landscape, where energy infrastructure is spread\nacross thousands of islands, encompasses diverse power generation\nsources, and plays a crucial role in national development and state\nresilience.<\/p>\n
ABB Ability\u2122 System 800xA\u00ae 7.0 is the latest version of ABB\u2019s\nflagship DCS, offering Automation Extended functionality. This solution\nprovides a stable, long-term platform to support the gradual adoption of\nnew digital capabilities while maintaining the reliability and security\nof core operations.<\/p>\n
ABB launched the latest version of the Distributed Control System\n(DCS), ABB Ability\u2122 System 800xA\u00ae 7.0, which helps industrial operators\nmodernize without disruption and accelerate their steps towards the next\ngeneration of automation.<\/p>\n
For information, ABB is a global technology leader in electrification\nand automation, enabling a more sustainable and resource-efficient\nfuture. ABB is committed to supporting Indonesian industry with\nenvironmentally friendly and efficient technologies.<\/p>\n
Built on ABB\u2019s long-term approach to seamless modernization, the ABB\nAbility\u2122 System 800xA\u00ae 7.0 distributed control system (DCS) serves as a\nbridge to future automation technologies.<\/p>\n
System 800xA 7.0 provides a stable and predictable path for both\nexisting installations and new projects, compatible with Windows OS,\nexpanded virtualization support, and long-term sustainability without\ndisruption during upgrades.<\/p>\n
Based on ABB\u2019s long-standing leadership in automation, System 800xA\n7.0 provides greater flexibility for industries to keep their control\nsystems up-to-date, secure, and aligned with rapidly evolving digital\ndemands. The system is built on a modern, open, and modular automation\necosystem, designed for interoperability, scalability, and cross-domain\nindustrial integration.<\/p>\n
\u201cSystem 800xA 7.0 marks an important step for us in delivering\ninnovation while maintaining continuity,\u201d said Senior Vice President of\nABB Automation Technology, Stefan Basenach, at the Iftar gathering in\nJakarta on Wednesday (February 25). \u201cCustomers have told us that they\nneed the ability to modernize at their own pace while protecting their\ninstalled systems. With version 7.0, we are providing a robust platform\nfor today and ready for the future. Version 7.0 not only strengthens the\ncore capabilities of the control system they rely on, but also paves the\nway for Automation Extended functionality, allowing them to adopt\nnext-generation digital technologies gradually without disruption,\u201d\nBasenach explained.

Industrial automation in Indonesia has been increasingly developing\nrecently along with the needs of various sectors to improve efficiency\nand productivity.<\/p>\n
The consistency and active participation of employees and contractors\nreflect the growing culture of environmental care in the workplace.<\/p>\n
The SDGs they pursue are not only through CSR, but also by making the\ncompany environmentally conscious.<\/p>\n
The MBG UNJ assessment team assessed that BLU\u2019s main advantage lies\nin its ability to combine operational flexibility with strong\naccountability.<\/p>\n
The application of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)\nprinciples is increasingly becoming a major benchmark in the technology\nindustry.<\/p>\n
This consistency has received external recognition through awards in\nthe fields of CSR and sustainability, including the Indonesia Best CSR\nAwards 2024 from The Iconomics.<\/p>\n
