Power plant operations and maintenance represent an institutional discipline governing how electricity generation assets are structured, controlled, and sustained to ensure reliability, efficiency, and long-term system stability. Their role extends to coordinating complex mechanical, electrical, and thermal systems within continuous production environments subject to strict safety and performance requirements. This training program presents operational architecture models, maintenance governance frameworks, equipment system structures, and performance monitoring mechanisms applied in modern power generation facilities. It provides a general institutional perspective on how structured operations and maintenance systems support energy security, asset longevity, and operational continuity.
