Natural Disasters: Increasing Resilience to Increasingly Extreme Weather
In this current era of climate volatility, extreme weather events are not only becoming more frequent, but also more intense. The death tolls are higher, the economic costs greater each time, with increasing frequency eroding companies’ ability to remain resilient. Disasters like the extreme flooding in Texas we saw in 2025 don’t just cause immediate harm to all sectors of society; the time and resources it takes to recover from these events are disasters of their own. There is an increasing need for industrial companies to prepare for the worst, and prepare for it to happen repeatedly.
Mitigating Risks Through Modernization: PLC/HMI and Radio Upgrade Plus Water Well Expansion
Outdated systems have the potential to transform assets into liabilities. It is important to know the signs and risks of using outdated systems, and when it is the right time to invest in a modern solution. This was a challenge faced by a company specializing in environmental management services who was operating eleven water well sites across a five-mile area. These sites were being controlled by legacy PLCs and HMIs and relied on slow serial radios for communication, posing several risks such as high maintenance costs, poor HMI responsiveness, and limited scalability due to the outdated equipment. The customer recognized how their outdated system negatively affected their productivity and efficiency which prompted them to seek engineering support. The company engaged E Tech Group to design and deploy a modern solution, which included upgrading their PLC, HMI, and radio controls as well as install an additional water well to expand their operations.
