Nuclear Power Generation
Main challenges for our customers
Reliability
The increased component failure risk of aging reactors can lead to operation at reduced power or plant shutdowns
Performance
Difficulty to locate performance losses and sensor drifts
Decision-making
Need to build trust and organizational agility in problem solving and risk recognition.
Our Solution
Metroscope diagnoses steam cycle performance losses. The steam cycle or secondary systems account for 70% of reliability problems and can include many simultaneous and latent faults making these systems complex to analyze.
A Metroscope model can usually identify over 80 unique faults impacting power generation and availability
Tailored for each plant, our nuclear models have ~10,000 equations, simulating both nominal behavior and fault scenarios

Case study
Earlier detection of a heat exchanger tube rupture
- Tube rupture was detected at 3kg/s, instead of 9kg/s with standard practice
- Implementation of Metroscope allowed optimization of planned maintenance and equipment lifetime extension
Key benefits
Greater power
output
output
Probability of plant shutdown and MWe losses are decreased due to equipment issues (e.g, at the condenser, MSRs , or feedwater reheaters)
Enhanced maintenance

Conventional Power Generation
Main challenges for our customers
Availability
Ensuring high availability rate is key to ensure competitiveness in the gas power generation market
Flexibility
Today’s energy market requires great flexibility and frequent plant restarts
Cost optimization
Operational costs are highly dependent on fuel price volatility
Our Solution
Designed for diverse users at all levels of expertise (plant managers, thermal performance engineers, asset managers, O&M teams,...), its interactive design enables a shortened decision-making process through collaboration
Our software gives an easy-to-understand overview of the plant history as well as the current plant health status
It also supports on-site knowledge continuity as the workforce changes
Tailored for each plant, our power generation model can simulate both nominal behavior and fault scenarios

Case study
Metroscope as a common source of knowledge for a Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) plant
- 80% of users display results outside of their division
- Accelerated decision-making between site and fleet stakeholders
- Weekly utilization (3 x week) for O&M monitoring and outage preparation
Key benefits
Automatic diagnosis
Automated fault diagnosis and impact quantification enable condition-based maintenance
Lower impact
on the planet
on the planet
Higher efficiency has a direct impact on fuel economy and reduction of CO2 emissions
Knowledge management
As a reliable source of asset history, Metroscope streamlines communication and enhances knowledge management
Metroscope has made it possible to identify sources of efficiency losses, to explain slow equipment drifts and to help in the decision
to initiate maintenance operations during the shutdown of our Combined Cycle Gas power plant in 2022
