Many challenges threaten the viability of aging power plants. Implementing intelligent solutions can help these plants adapt to growing demands to stay competitive in this ever-changing landscape
All aging power plants have one thing in common – significant challenges to their continuing viability, deriving from increased competition, tighter regulations and declining experience in the workforce. Their declining income due to decreased kWh sales, inevitably leading to lower profitability and extreme pressure on O&M budgets, coupled with required duty cycles that are often far beyond the original design basis, tougher emissions requirements and increasingly stringent grid codes, put these plants in a difficult situation. Implementing intelligent solutions can help these plants adapt to growing demands to stay competitive in this ever-changing landscape.
