Product catalog summary

Overview: GE's LM6000 aeroderivative gas turbine is a leader in the +40 MW space, with over 37 million operating hours and more than 1,200 units shipped. It boasts greater than 99% start and operational reliability and 98% availability. The turbine's 5-minute fast start enhances dispatch capability, while its two-spool design reduces maintenance costs. Its universal and modular packaging allows for a smaller footprint and quicker installation.

Capabilities: The LM6000 can achieve various dispatch profiles with a 3-minute synchronization to the grid.

Versatility: It operates from peaking to baseload and is applicable in combined cycle, simple cycle, industrial cogeneration, and district heating.

Sustainability: The LM6000 reduces greenhouse gas emissions as part of the LM6000 battery Hybrid EGT offering.
