- Establish a commissioning team with representatives from various disciplines - Develop a commissioning plan outlining the scope, schedule, responsibilities, and resources required - Conduct safety assessments and risk analyses
FUNCTIONAL TESTING
Conduct functional tests on individual components and systems - Test control systems, instrumentation, safety systems, and emergency shutdown procedures.
INTEGRATED SYSTEM TESTING
- Integrate various systems and conduct tests - Perform load tests to validate the plant's performance
POWER GENERATION FORECASTING
The O&M service provider may provide forecasting services, if required by the Asset Owner.Forecast requirements are characterized
PERFORMANCE TESTING
Conduct performance tests to verify that the power plant meets efficiency, capacity, and emissions requirements.- Measure and record parameters such as power output, fuel consumption, heat rate, and emissions levels.
OPERATIONAL READINESS
Train operations and maintenance personnel on plant procedures, equipment operation, and safety protocols.- Develop operating manuals, procedures, and emergency response plans.
FINAL ACCEPTANCE AND HANDOVER
Complete documentation and paperwork required for regulatory compliance and operational records.- Obtain necessary permits and certifications for plant operation.- Conduct final walkthroughs and inspections to ensure all requirements are met before handover to the owner or operator.
POST-COMMISSIONING MONITORING
Monitor plant performance during initial operation to identify and address any issues that may arise.- Conduct periodic inspections, maintenance, and performance assessments to ensure continued reliable and efficient operation.
