Risk-based investment planning for power transformers
Fortis BC hired BBA to perform a condition and risk assessment of two power transformers. Our objective was to determine the optimal intervention scenario for these assets by conducting cost-benefit analyses aligned with the utility’s risk tolerance, thereby informing their decision-making process. One notable challenge included navigating a service advisory from the bushing manufacturer regarding potential premature failure, adding unknown risk.
