Latest Developments in Siemens Large Gas Turbine Portfolio (Room Nile 2)

This paper will update the industry on the Siemens Large Gas Turbine Portfolio since the energy market undergoes recently a drastically change, especially when looking at combined cycle power generation. From base load / cycling operation the operational profile of many plants has changed to high cycling or daily start stop operation. Reason for this change is the addition of renewable power. Given the expected volatile market environment the Siemens Large Gas Turbine Portfolio offers reliable and cost-effective solutions to our customers and is the best fit for combined cycle projects when considering the financial benefits and risks of projects in such markets – for both short term and long term view. The paper will highlight successful projects using e.g. the SGT-8000H series as Siemens most advanced frame with high operational and fuel flexibility and highest efficiency. This gas turbine series has not only set new standards for efficiency but it also has become a benchmark in the industry in terms of reliable operation and robustness of design. With low life cycle costs, high reliability and availability, operational flexibility and low emissions it is a trendsetting solution for clean fossil power generation in combination with renewable power generation. With more than 80 units sold and 28 units with more than 310,000 hours in commercial operation and each unit handed over in time while meeting guarantees, the SGT-8000H series is widely accepted as a fully proven product series which is perfectly suited for future challenges and changing market needs.
