Improved Preventive Maintenance Scheduling for a Photovoltaic Plant under Environmental Constraints

The supply of PV power that satisfies the needs customers is heavily dependent on reliability generating plants. However, irrespective robustness design such physical industrial assets, they tend to depreciate with usage and/or age which, in turn, increases allowance between and operational capabilities. Therefore, ameliorate system, a combination selective preventive maintenance actions were planned by determining best (optimal intervals, optimal replaced components). In this work, we developed an strategy minimal repair using iterative numerical technique for plant, without considering influence environmental conditions system. An algorithm was MATLAB determine number yields maximum availability selecting components be maintained based threshold, impact components. elements’ criticality introduced, reiterated new technique. Finally, maximizing finite horizon established.
