LexaTexer provides an Enterprise AI platform to support the energy value chain with prebuilt, configurable AI applications addressing CAPEX-intense hydro assets like Francis and Pelton turbines and pumps.
What is the AI solution the project plans to implement?
Hydropower operators face several challenges due to the introduction of stochastic energy providers like wind and solar. They are switching from baseload to more flexible power production, introducing a stochastic usage pattern. At the same time, availability and efficiency must be improved. Static wear models no longer suffice; intelligent AI-driven condition monitoring and diagnostics promise remedy.
What is the AI solution the project plans to implement?
In this project, we propose combining our AI platform and data from real-world operations to model Pelton turbines' remaining useful life (RUL) based on real-world operational and environmental data to increase RUL's efficiency and availability significantly. We propose to build hybrid AI models, including operational knowledge into the models.
