Developing Analytics to Predict Maintenance Needs for Electric Utility Assets

GE Digital is a leader in digital transformation for the energy network, providing greater insight, oversight, and foresight, enabling renewable energy penetration, reducing emissions, increasing plant productivity, and adapting to demand.

The Tauber Team worked with the GE Digital team to develop a Machine Learning tool that will monitor power generation equipment and provide operations and maintenance technicians with an estimation of the time until a maintenance activity is required.

The purpose of this new tool is to provide useful insights to GE and its partners, allowing plants to better schedule maintenance activities and improve up-time.
