Today, combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) plants play a critical role in providing power grids with additional electricity during peak periods of high demand. By harnessing the energy from both combustion and steam turbines. CCGT plants use less fuel overall and can run longer than traditional "peaker' plants to produce cheaper electricity on demand. Depending on the condition of the region's ...
Combined cycle gas turbines (CCGTs) play a critical role in providing power grids with additional electricity, supporting reliability and resilience during periods of high demand. Combined cycle power plants that harness energy from both combustion and steam turbines use less fuel overall, and can produce longer run times than traditional peaker plants that have long been used to produce ...
In October 1997, Essar commissioned India’s first Independent Power Plant (IPP) after the Government of India had liberalised its power policy. Originally conceived to cater only to Essar Steel’s requirements, the plant was later converted to an independent producer with a capacity of 515 MW. Using cutting-edge technology, it was no ordinary power plant. The Hazira IPP was a ...

Steam turbines are elegant in their simplicity. Water turns to steam; steam rotates the turbines; energy is transformed into electricity. But this simplicity belies incredible complexities in their operations and tiny intricacies in their build. These intricacies demand a rigorous testing practice to make sure that the turbines work safely. Increasingly, these turbines are tested using Phased ...
