Overview
The TM2500 is a versatile aeroderivative gas turbine ideal for providing a baseload bridge to permanent power installations or generating backup power during emergencies such as natural disasters, plant shutdowns, or grid instability. It offers a rapid deployment capability, with power being added to the grid within 30 days of contract signing.

Specifications
The TM2500 provides a power output of 32 MW at 30°C with hot-day performance. It supports both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operations, with net outputs of 34.6 MW and 37.0 MW respectively. The net heat rates are 9,783 Btu/kWh (10,321 kJ/kWh) for 50 Hz and 9,333 Btu/kWh (9,846 kJ/kWh) for 60 Hz, with efficiencies of 34.9% and 36.6% respectively.

Cost Efficiency
Switching from a diesel engine and electric generator to a TM2500 using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) can result in savings of up to $7 million per year in operating costs.

Performance
For single cycle (SC) and combined cycle (CC) plant configurations, the TM2500 offers varying outputs and efficiencies. In a 1x CC configuration, the net output is 49.2 MW for 50 Hz and 51.1 MW for 60 Hz, with efficiencies of 49.7% and 50.5% respectively. In a 2x CC configuration, the net output increases to 99.2 MW for 50 Hz and 103.1 MW for 60 Hz, with efficiencies of 50.1% and 50.9% respectively.

Operational Flexibility
The TM2500 features a plant turndown minimum load of 35% for 50 Hz and 36% for 60 Hz, with a ramp rate of 30 MW/min for 1x CC and 60 MW/min for 2x CC configurations. The startup time for rapid response/hot start is 30 minutes.

Additional Capabilities
The TM2500 has up to 75% hydrogen capability with package changes required for the TM2500 +G4 SAC configuration.
