Advanced gas path upgrade for 9F gas turbines

A construction conglomerate based out of Istanbul, ENKA has been supplying 13 percent of Turkey’s electricity since 2002, and has placed the first order for GE’s 9F AGP technology for 10 of its gas turbines at the Gebze, Adapazar, and İzmir power plants—a milestone for both companies. 

Working with GE Vernova's Gas Power services business, ENKA is expected to deliver a total of up to approximately 150 additional megawatts (MW) of power, enough to generate electricity for more than 200,000 additional households in Turkey. The project also includes an extension of ENKA’s Parts and Services Agreement (PSA) with GE.

ENKA also expects to lower its emissions footprint with the installation of the AGP solution in tandem with GE Vernova’s Dry Low NOx (DLN) 2.6+ combustion system upgrade. Upon completion of this program, ENKA plants will reach over 57 percent combined efficiency. 

By partnering closely with EGA/DUBAL engineers and operators, GE Vernova developed a tailored upgrade package to help EGA/DUBAL achieve its desired outcomes.  EGA/DUBAL engineers can optimize the machines for fuel efficiency, maximum output and emissions, or balance all three. 

"Incorporating these new technologies into our power station is central to our long-term strategy of producing aluminum products as efficienctly and cost-effectively as possible for our customers. The solutions GE Vernova has customized for our unique power demands will allow us to achieve such levels of efficiency."

To bring more electricity to the country and strengthen their energy infrastructure, GE Vernova and Iraq’s Ministry of Energy have struck an agreement that will provide Iraq with power generation equipment and services to support the growing need for electricity.

"The public private partnership with GE Vernova serves as a new business model where we work with our partners to secure financing and technology, enabling faster project delivery."

The Southern California Edison-owned plant collaborated with GE Vernova to develop a package solution that will reduce its start-up times, and lower emissions without using additional water. The combination of AGP, Dry Low NOx 2.6+ (DLN2.6+) combustion and OpFlex* software upgrades positioned Mountainview to help balance the region’s grid demands.

"GE’s solution gives us a more efficient plant, creating greater value and savings for our customers."
