• Abstract: Hydroelectricity, being a renewable source of energy, globally fulfills the electricity demand. Hence, Hydropower Plants (HPPs) have always been in the limelight of research. The fast-paced technological advancement is enabling us to develop state-of-the-art power generation machines. This has not only resulted in improved turbine efficiency but has also increased the complexity of these systems. In lieu thereof, efficient Operation & Maintenance (O&M) of such intricate power generation systems has become a more challenging task. Therefore, there has been a shift from conventional reactive approaches to more intelligent predictive approaches in maintaining the HPPs. The research is therefore targeted to develop an artificially intelligent fault prognostics system for the turbine bearings of an HPP. The proposed method utilizes the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithm in developing the model. Initially, the model is trained and tested with bearing vibration data from a test rig. Subsequently, it is further trained and tested with realistic bearing vibration data obtained from an HPP operating in Pakistan via the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. The model demonstrates highly effective predictions of bearing vibration values, achieving a remarkably low RMSE.
