The best part of a
seminar is often the contact with the colleagues of other
companies with the objective to share experiences and know-how. With these
discussion-workshops we want to make sharing more explicit by exchange
of
information through presentations and discussions.
Risk management is an
important issue in present asset management organisations and decision
processes. A complicated issue, addressing not only short term,
day-to-day decisions but also long term, strategic issues like long
term forecasting of system development.
Risk management is applied
at both system and asset level and has always been strongly related to
economical/financial affairs. However, there is a growing awareness
that decisions should also take into account requirements of social,
technical, safety and environmental nature. The latter influences are
normally in conflict with the more economically oriented drivers.
Risk management at asset
level concerns (re-)investment and maintenance decisions, controlled
by the consequences of the decision at the quality of power
deliverance at system level. Risk management at system level concerns
a diversity of issues, from finding the optimum solution with respect
to an increasing power demand to the setting of a required system
availability level that allows energy flow against lowest costs
possible.
Risk management of
transmission networks is a rather new area that is to a large part the
responsibility of the asset manager. It is the purpose of the workshop
to openly exchange experiences, applied solutions (tools) and realised
results in the risk management approach. As such participants are
asked to prepare themselves (by means of power point sheets) on the following questions:
-

possible risks, do you pre-evaluate as like

important risks, which do you regard as
-
Please describe any
scientific basis (models, experiences, statistics, ...) used by you
to make professional and accountable decisions
-
Do you apply an expert
system as decision support tool, is this internally developed or
commercially purchased
-
Would the risk
management process be more asset or system directed or cover both?
Short or long term? Directed at all
stakeholders’ satisfaction or only the profit oriented? Key Performance
Indicator respectively Balance Score Card based? If so, can you share
details with us?
