Fast Power Applications When customers need power fast, whether to quickly expand domestic capacity in response to unanticipated rapid growth in electricity demand or emergent requirements due to natural disasters, GE has a range of offerings to meet the need.
Emergency/Mobile Power GE helps customers respond to emergency power situations, bring power to remote areas, and generate backup power to support maintenance, overhauls, or outages at power plants or for large-scale projects. The TM2500 trailer-mounted aeroderivative gas turbine unit can be swiftly transported by land, air, or sea, and can be commissioned in less than 11 days to provide up to 31 MW of reliable power. The mobility of the TM2500 allows customers the flexibility to reposition power at the point of use as demands change.
Quick Shipment/Construction Electricity demand is not always easy to predict, so when a customer suddenly needs to add significant generating capacity to their operation or grid, GE has the speed and scale to respond. As the largest provider of gas turbine power generation systems in the world, we often have the required gas turbine, steam turbine, and generator products in the manufacturing process to enable fast delivery and shorten the time to commissioning and achieving electrification goals. And with our modular packaging and power island offerings, installation times are significantly reduced as well, bringing power online quickly.
Bridging Power When the time required for a power plant configuration best suited for the required economics does not meet the customer’s commercial operation needs, we can offer bridging power to close that gap. With a combination of mobile TM2500 units to meet the short-term power needs and the right long-term plant offering, GE is able to provide the optimum combination to deliver the best overall plant economics. Think of it as the “loaner car” until your new power plant is online.
Egypt In record time, empty land became a power station, generating about 1000 MW to support Upper Egypt’s power needs—just in time to meet the rising seasonal electricity demand. GE helped power this transformation through a major contract with the Egyptian government for 46 turbines: 34 aeroderivative gas turbines and 12 heavy duty gas turbines that will help to generate more than 2.6 GW of electricity—equivalent to power more than 8.7 million homes. In December 2014, within hours of signing contracts with the government of Egypt, GE dispatched its advanced gas turbine technology to construction sites across the country. Currently, four of the 9E turbines are running on natural gas and the remaining eight 9E units have fired on both distillate oil as well as heavy fuel oil.
EXPO Power Systems S.A. When Greece’s EXPO Power Systems S.A. needed a solution to meet the summer peak power demands of the Rhodes, Greece electricity grid, the company purchased a TM2500+ gas turbine generator. The TM2500+ gas turbine-generator set was commissioned within 10 days of arrival, and was ready to provide a fast, permanent source of power generation, staving off blackouts and power failures on this Greek Isle. The TM2500+ turbine-generator set is capable of producing up to 30 MW of power and can achieve full power in less than 10 minutes. That makes it ideal for providing a baseload bridge to permanent power installations, or for generating backup power to support natural disaster relief, plant shutdowns, or equipment maintenance.
