2 Why a session on availability? Top utility concerns Source: Black & Veatch s 2011 Strategic Directions Survey Results May 27, 2014 Slide 2
3 Our every day necessities Areas of power consumption reflected on the earth s surface More than ever, the need of energy efficient products and reliable grids. ABB s transformers support the systems that keep our world running. Ever growing population Energy consumption to double within 30 years Sustaining a power-hungry world Ensure the reliability & availability of an ageing grid infrastructure Concern about climate change Green solutions - providing energy efficient products and service Economic environment May 27, 2014 Slide 3
4 Utility and Industry challenges Asset management with new challenges Probability Failure probabilities (Network Transfor.) Age (years) Move towards Condition Based Maintenance / Reliability Centered Need for tools to decide based on technical & economical criteria Ensure high reliability of aged assets Avoid unplanned power outage Optimize assets performance Increase production output Optimize capital expenditure and increase return on assets Reduce Life Cycle Costs Lowest operation and maintenance costs Extend lifetime of existing assets while looking for sustainability Delay investments while considering green solutions May 27, 2014 Slide 4
5 How to enhance availability? Avoid unexpected failures Plan maintenance and repair during low load periods Efficient maintenance actions reducing downtime Solutions to shorter repair time Retrofit solution to increase personal and asset safety Green footprint Financial benefits May 27, 2014 Slide 5

11 Transformer Service Success Story Utility, ZA Belhar and Dinaledi Substation Pilot Installation Utility, South Africa, Western Cape & North West Year: 2012 Customers need Lower shutdown periods Reduce OLTC maintenance scheduling Trouble-free operation ABB s response Vacuum On-load tap changer Immediate prognosis allowing to take appropriate actions before a problem occurs Customers benefits Lower life cycle costs, less maintenance needs, and increased time in operation because of a radical reduction in contact wear. Routine inspection takes place in a cleaner environment which reduces downtime. Only the diverter switch mechanism differs which means that the unit is completely interchangeable, thus no redesign of the transformer is necessary. Operation of the transformers has become more efficient allowing overloading and aging forecasting on-line. Online Monitoring has increased the availability of the transformers May 27, 2014 Slide 11
