Energy, Uninterrupted The global energy landscape is changing rapidly, and the energy Just a few years ago, the scarcity of natural gas resources led Less than a decade ago, oil and natural gas were viewed as “bridge GE’s portfolio of gas turbines helps provide a sense of certainty in an needs of today may not be the energy realities of tomorrow. Power to volatility in pricing and supply. Coal was an answer to this fuels”—transitional fuels that would lead us to a nuclear-powered uncertain world, delivering the operational flexibility and performance producers are seeking ways to respond to...

Pioneering the World’s Gas Turbine Technology As a company founded by innovators, GE was an early entrant into turbomachinery products, building upon our aircraft engine expertise to help pioneer the modern, industrial gas turbine. The first commercially sold heavy duty GE continues to develop industry-leading gas turbine used for power generation in the Western Hemisphere entered commercial operation in the United States at Belle Isle Station, Oklahoma, more than 60 years ago. That gas turbine generated electricity to power the turbines. These robust machines are “right-sized,” industries,...

Engineered for Reliability Reliable, durable, and versatile, GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine is as integral a player in the energy industry today as it was when the first unit entered service more than 40 years ago. And, that unit is still in service today. With decades of continuing enhancements in output, efficiency and operational flexibility, you can count on GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine to provide the power you need, when you need it. The gas turbine’s reliability springs from the simplicity of its durable architecture. GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine excels in peaking power applications, making it an...

Industry-Leading Reliability Fuel Flexibility 60 Hz Simple Cycle Performance At GE, we recognize that fuel can be the Power Generation Gas turbine reliability is measured in largest cost in the operation of your gas two ways: 1) the percentage of time turbine. Fuels that are readily available Heat Rate the turbine starts on the first attempt are not always “clean, natural gas.” That’s (starting reliability); and 2) the percentage Pressure Ratio of time the turbine continues running to operate on more than 50 different Mass Flow without failure (machine reliability). fuels—gaseous fuels...

Proven Power Whether it’s for fast power generation, raw horsepower for industrial and petrochemical processes, or steady, reliable output, customers throughout 60 hertz regions of the globe recognize that GE’s 7E.03 gas turbines keep their operations running—so they can focus on running their business. Simple Cycle GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine excels in peaking, baseload and cyclic duty operation. The unit can achieve up to 100 percent baseload in less than 10 minutes, delivering 89 MW of reliable power. Its low turndown capability allows the unit to stay online at low loads while remaining...

Strengthening your Bottom Line Using a 17-stage axial-flow bolted compressor with one row of inlet guide vanes, combined with 10 can annular chambers and three high-efficiency turbine stages, GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine offers the right combination of robust architecture and performance. Environmental and Economic Benefits • uaranteed NOX emissions of 4 ppm or lower G • eduction of annual NOX emissions by 67 percent (compared to a DLN system) R — quivalent to the annual NOX emissions of 8,300 cars on U.S. roads e Key improvements over time have made the compressor more durable and extended the...

Fuel Flexibility Technology Fluctuating fuel prices, security of supply, and emissions constraints can all affect your ability to generate power, and revenue. Fortunately, technology from GE has been helping customers overcome these obstacles for decades. In fact, GE has been an industry leader in gas turbine fuel flexibility for more than 50 years. GE offers the broadest fuel flexibility portfolio in the industry, and has proven gas turbine operation using more than 50 different fuels that range from heavy fuel oil to waste gases from industrial processes. GE’s 7E.03 gas turbine is one of...
