A baseload power plant had been unable to operate consistently for an extended period, limiting its ability to add dependable capacity to the national grid. After earlier commissioning challenges, the plant needed a sustained performance turnaround to improve availability, support stable operation, and help restore the project’s financial viability.
A US power generation asset was experiencing significant performance degradation during periods of elevated ambient temperature. The issue was linked to the underperformance of the plant’s air-cooled condenser (ACC), which was affecting the plant’s ability to maintain output under the most challenging operating conditions.
A ground fault was detected during outage testing of a generator at a US power generation facility, resulting in extended downtime and operational interruption. The failure created an urgent need to determine the root cause of the event, determine the correct repair approach, and support the owner through a complex recovery process.
