Power plants as electricity producers need to be maintained using monitoring performance and continuously improvements. Company management of power plant is difficult to make decision for continuous improvement, requires Performance Measurement Tools (PMT) to determine the performance of a power plant. PMT developed using Key Performance Indicator (KPI) that was defined through Forum Group Discussion (FGD) with different field of expertise in company and based on references. A questionnaire was carried out to get KPI weights. Performance Score (PS) can be obtained from the calculation of actual data, contracts and KPI (Power Output (PO), Heat Rate (HR), Operating Ratio (OR), Capacity Factor (CF)) weights. If there is a gap in the PS then it can indicate penalty from customer especially PO and HR.
Case study was conducted on three power plants that have different capacity and number of engines. The sum of the PS from the KPI will get a Total Performance Score (TPS). The highest TPS value will get a Performance Benchmark (PB) for each power plant. The results of the analysis showed that there was no penalty for Power Plant B in November and December 2019; Power Plant C during 2019 and 2020.
Keywords: Power Plants, Gas Engine Generator, Performance Indicators, Performance Measurement, Performance Score, Performance Benchmark.
