This paper provides how to establish an integrated plan for LE (life extension) and MD (modernization) of aged hydropower plants. The methodology is developed through review of overseas/domestic LE/MD histories, investigation of the previous overseas methodologies and consideration of domestic practices. The methodology includes reviews of the various factors such as condition, operation and maintenance history, up-to-date technology, and economic benefit. In order to establish the life extension/modernization plan, the methodology is applied to the domestic aged hydropower plants. Finally, priority rankings and draft practice plans for LE/MD are derived.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop and demonstrate the customized modernization technology of the old aged hydropower generation system in operation Method: The modernization design was carried out based on the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly information of the power plant in operation at the site. Results: In this paper, a safety diagnosis of existing facilities located in the Philippiness was carried out in accordance with the Special Act on the Safety Management of Domestic Facilities, and a method for reinforcing the facilities was selected. Conclusion: The selection of wheel suitable for the local environment and the maintenance of the old facilities were designed by domestic repair/reinforcement technology.
