2016 Proceedings of PICMET '16: Technology Management for Social InnovationTechnology Evaluation ofRobotics Technology in PowerIndustryByung Sung Yoon,Judith Estep,Terry Oliver,Robert Grizzi,John Lindberg T.,Portland State UniversityBonneville Power AdministrationBonneville Power AdministrationElectric Power Research InstituteElectric Power Research InstituteAbstractThe electric power utilities as important social infrastructures should beoperated stably without any failure in supply of electricity. For stableoperation, it is necessary to input huge amount of resource and investmentthroughout power generation, transmission and distribution facilities.Particularly, constant inspection and maintenance of the facilities requireshighly skilled manpower and advanced technologies. In spite of endlessefforts, the electric power industry is facing serious challenges from social,economic and environmental problems. In this regard, a number of roboticsystems have been tested and applied for inspection and maintenance innuclear power plants and high voltage power transmission lines. The ElectricPower Research Institute (EPRI) which conducts research, development anddemonstration (RD&D) relating to the generation, delivery and use ofelectricity for the benefit of the public has also required efficient technologymanagement in providing a blue print of robotics technologies in electricpower sector for the future. The organization wants to centralize the R&Dcapability of robotics technologies which are dispersed by each division inorder to prevent duplicated investments and manage its R&D capabilityeffectively. This research is a step towards assessing the current roboticstechnology being used in the power industry and identifying the technologiesthat would benefit the industry most by using the Technology DevelopmentEnvelop (TDE) approach.23055

(Gerdsri, 2007) Development of a desirability curve*‐ Step 1: Identify the best and worst desirable limiting metrics that eachfactor can take on.‐ Step 2: Verify the measures of effectiveness whose desirability valueis linearly proportional to their numerical value between the twolimits.‐ Step 3: Develop a semi‐absolute scale by assigning 0 point to theworst and 100 points to the best desirable limiting metrics under eachfactor.‐ Step 4: Calculate the relative desirability of the intermediate valuesbetween the two limits.‐ Step 5: The relative desirability values of metrics under each factorcan be graphically presented as a desirability curve by arranging therange of metrics value on the horizontal axis (X‐ axis) and thedesirability value on the vertical axis (Y‐axis).Source:Gerdsri, N.
