BC hydro strategy for replacement of equipment

• DM´s 10-Year plan provides a long-term forecast of OMA and capital replacement spending that is deemed necessary to maintain a high level of performance in BC Hydro´s distribution network. • Continue with subjective and audited asset health evaluations to meet safety and due diligence requirements. • Continue to expand condition assessment and build asset data profiles for various assets. • Use ARI and LCA to improve the effectiveness of maintenance and replacement spending in delivering performance expectations. • Include customer needs and expectations in managing asset health investments. • Move to an investment perspective of asset health and demonstrate the opportunity to reduce investment while meeting performance expectations.
