Reliability maintenance for boilers and associated power generation plant
A series of webinars on: The critical role of reliability maintenance for sustainable electricity supply
Even as South Africa transitions to a low carbon future, whatever the technologies employed, a culture of proper reliability maintenance of all plant is needed, including coal-fired power stations, boilers and associated equipment, throughout the plant lifecycle.
To execute reliability maintenance by the book, issues such as aging plant, inadequate reserve margin and financial constraints will be covered, together with the need for adequate forward planning, partnering with OEMs, availability of spares, and local skills and capacity development.
In a webinar hosted by EE Business Intelligence (supported by DBSA, Eskom, Sasol, Babcock, Actom and EPRI) we will discuss why it is important to maintain the cycles of maintenance and reduce downtime of boiler and auxiliary plant systems, and how to get this done.
