Emerson, a global automation leader, today announced its AspenTech Digital Grid Management solutions are being used by Enagás, S.A., to monitor, operate and optimise Spain’s gas transmission network. As Spain’s national gas grid operator, Enagás relies on Emerson’s software to support the continuity, safety and security of the country’s natural gas supply.
