Today's biggest for Hydro Power Plants O&M issues
Operations and maintenance personnel at hydroelectric facilities face significant issues. Among these is
the fact that these facilities are aging at the same time that technology is changing substantially. In
addition, at many older hydro plants, equipment may be upgraded a piece at a time. Over the years, this
means a facility can contain a mix of old and new equipment, which may have different operational and/or
maintenance requirements.
In addition, the hydroelectric plant workforce is aging, which causes a two-fold problem. First, these older
plants need significant upgrade work at the same time as many experienced personnel are planning their
retirements. Second, retiring employees are taking with them valuable expertise, with little time available to
transfer this experiential learning to the next generation of plant workers.

2. Introduction
Experience of running hydropower stations in India has shown that even after careful project planning and
good quality control measures from construction to commissioning, unforeseen problems do occur in
service resulting in unplanned outages / low generation and load shedding etc. This causes disruption to
consumers and reduced cash generation for the operator. A contributing factor to these operational
problems is the fact that hydro power equipment and plant is custom built. The equipment cannot be fully
assembled or tested in a factory before sending it to site. Maintenance activities at predetermined time
intervals are necessary to ensure the following:
Quality and reliable operation of equipment in the service environment through planned, periodic
inspection and checking of components and systems. Together with replacement or rectification of parts
wherever required.
Maximum availability of equipment and a minimum of unplanned shut downs by using planned / periodic
shutdowns to inspect all equipment (serviceable and non-servicable).
Eradication of operational problems by a timely analysis of the cause of faults / problems and replacement
of short term solutions by long lasting and permanent ones.
Challenges
Renewable energy is one of the fastest growing sources of electricity. Hydroelectricity, one of the oldest
methods for generating power, will play a signi cant role in the projected growth of worldwide generation.
Hydroelectric plants have long lifecycles, with some facilities still operating after more than 100 years.
Periodic upgrades to equipment, as well as relicensing, allows utilities to extend the life of a hydro facility
so it can continue to produce electricity well into the future. Additionally, effective management of
hydroelectric or pump storage plant operations ensures the ongoing commercial viability of these assets.
Modernizing hydroelectric or pump storage plants, constructing new sites, and retro fitting good control
facilities for efficient power production affords many benefits, but each has their own challenges with cost,
performance, and risk.
