Fortistar built, manages and operates the facility, where two (2) 57 MWe Taurus 60 gas turbine generator sets deliver 11.4 MWe of continuous base load power to the Duke Energy grid under a 20-year supply agreement. The facility runs around the clock on landfill gas, which has significant advantages over conventional fuels. The low-emission ...
The University of Arkansas's Fayetteville campus is the flagship of the University of Arkansas (UA) System. Founded in 1871 as a land-grant institute, the campus now consists of over 370 buildings including the Central Utility Plant/Central Chilled Water Plant, Nanoscale Material Science and Engineering Building, and the Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. The campus spans approximately 512 ...
An international pharmaceutical group located in Italy, Recordati, installed a Centaur® 50 gas turbine from Solar Turbines with SoLoNOx1" and a TTS2 control system in its pharmaceutical chemical plant in Campoverde di Aprilia (LT) in 1996. Since its installation, the system has received various upgrades to improve package availability and reliability. ...
The Power House provides reliable energy and a stable electrical grid in addition to heat recovery steam generation (HRSG). The facility utilizes one Centaur 40 gas turbine generator set with SoLoNOx on-line and one in reserve. The Power House generates 2400 VAC to the grid and can produce steam to a maximum of 200,000 Ibs/hr and ...
The mill has inaugurated its combined heat and power (CHP) system which is comprised of a Taurus™ 70 gas turbine generator set, an air system with fans, burners, dampers, ducting and instrumentation for the hood, as well as a heat recovery steam generator, an air/ air heat recovery and an air/water heat recovery system. The gas ...
In 1987, the University invested in a 4.5 MW natural gas turbine CHP system with a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) capable of providing 56,000 Ibs/hr steam for use in the University's central heating system. ...
Fedrigoni's three plants in Italy (Arco, Verona and Fabriano) leverage a combined heat and power (CHP) solution delivered by Taurus 70 generator sets from Solar ...
Powered by three (3) Taurus 70 natural gas turbine generator sets, the system fulfills 100 percent of campus power needs in winter and 72 percent in summer. ...
Biogen Idee is a global leader in the discovery, development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative therapies. In 2003. the pharmaceutical company needed to do something to ensure the critical supply of steam and electricity to its Kendall Square campus, both of which came from outside sources. The loss of electricity for an hour means as much as 24 to 36 days of product loss due to ...
The University of Michigan (U-M) is a public research university. Founded in 1817, U-M is the oldest and largest university in Michigan. It was established 20 years before the territory became a state. Since 1871, U-M has been a coeducational institution. Today, it enrolls approximately 32,000 undergraduate and 16,000 graduate ...
Eight Flags Energy's combined heat and power (CHP) plant began generating electricity and steam in July of 2016. The location of the plant on Amelia Island is on the end of a lateral line so the plant provides excellent power quality and reliability. The project is a result of the partnership between Chesapeake Utilities Corporation, its subsidiary. Florida Public Utilities Company (FPU), and ...
This 190 MWe open cycle thermoelectric power plant consists of ten Power Generation Modules, PGM 130, powered by the Titan 130, and two Titan 250 gas turbine generator sets operating on natural gas, and supported by diesel as a back-up fuel. The addition of Heat Recovery Steam Generators to reuse the heat produced by gas ...
New-lndy Containerboard operates four mills producing 750,000 tons of recycled containerboard per year. New-lndy's mills receive more than 100 truckloads of old corrugated cardboard (OCC) daily. This material is cleaned, reduced to a slurry and then reformed to create new containerboard. The recycled paper is then sent to box plants throughout local markets. Each of their California locations ...
Renewable Energy Development: The growing need for high-performance magnets in wind turbines continues to expand the market. Consumer Electronics Innovation: The increasing use of neodymium magnets in smartphones, headphones, and other devices further drives market growth. ...
Pros: Wind energy can be considered a renewable source of power—a virtually never-depleted power source. The electricity from wind turbines is generated without the combustion of any fossil fuels, reducing greenhouse gases and helping to address climate change. ...

One of the challenges that CCGT plants face in this regard is starting their steam turbines quickly after being offline. In a combined cycle power plant, a gas turbine initially generates electricity. The waste heat from the gas turbines is then captured via a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG), which produces ...
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. ...
Many remote power projects are temporary in nature where the customer has off-grid operations requiring power from generators or turbines to supply electricity or needs operations ahead of the availability of line power from the regional electricity provider (as is described in the actual case study below). ...
Year: 2016 Running Gear: 3 units: Vertical shaft synchronous generator driven by a Francis turbine. Vertical shaft synchronous generator driven by a propeller turbine, and a vertical shaft induction generator driven through a flat belt by a Kaplan turbine. ...
Year: 2018 Running Gear: Three units: One vertical shaft Francis turbine with synchronous generator. One horizontal shaft turbine with synchronous generator. One horizontal shaft double-runner turbine with synchronous generator. Scope: Replacement control system, switchgear, and HPU. ...
