GAS POWER SYSTEMS CATALOG I Application Considerations


Combined Heat and Power Applications Combined heat and power (CHP) systems, also called cogeneration power plants, are designed to generate both electrical power and heat for use in a process application. Utilizing exhaust energy from gas turbines, steam can be generated through a heat exchanger, which can then be used in any number of applications or processes with no additional fuel consumption or emissions. As a result, the overall efficiency of CHP systems can exceed 80 percent, making CHP one of the most energy-efficient methods of power generation. With the broadest gas turbine product portfolio in the industry, GE is uniquely positioned to provide the right products to meet the required ratio of power to heat for your CHP projects. Some common applications of CHP power plants are as follows:


CONDENSING (SUMMER)


CENTRAL GENERATION 80-400 MW


7F/9F DISTRICT HEAT 6F.03


INDUSTRIAL 10-80 MW


COMMERCIAL AND SMALL INDUSTRIAL <10 MW


LOW


TGK-16 TGK-16, an independent heat and electricity producer owned by TAIF, will utilize an advanced power generation system based on GE’s 9HA.01 gas turbine installed at a combined heat and power (CHP) plant in Kazan, Russia. This project will help ensure the reliability of Kazan’s power supply by decreasing the regional power deficit. GE’s air-cooled HA technology will operate on natural gas and provide additional electricity for businesses and homes, along with heat

Madison Gas and Electric The West Campus Cogeneration Facility, operated by Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) in Madison, Wisconsin, churns out steam to heat and chilled water to cool the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. In addition, the combined heat and power (CHP) system provides electric power to MGE utility customers in the surrounding community. The plant has advanced emission controls that reduce NOx, CO, and VOC emissions.


for continuous petrochemical production. GE’s 9HA


power generation system will replace existing gas-fired boilers and increase the CHP facility’s electrical production from 384 MW to 773 MW while using 30 percent less fuel, creating a total plant efficiency of approximately 80 percent.


GE’s two LM6000 aeroderivative gas turbines drive generators to produce electricity. Exhaust gases from each turbine are converted to high- and low-pressure steam in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). GE’s dual-pressure, extracting/condensing steam turbine paired with an electric generator receives the steam, sends steam heat to the UW-Madison campus and produces power for the Madison area. Exhaust steam is condensed, cooled and turned into reusable water. The plant’s overall net efficiency rate is 70 percent, double that of conventional plants, and with reduced greenhouse gas, mercury and sulfur dioxide emissions. Win-win!
