Our foundation for flexibility The LMS100 provides unsurpassed simple-cycle efficiency and increased power output, thanks to an innovative intercooling system. Features of flexibility The LMS100 development program-ensuring the flexibility to meet current and future needs. The intercooling system takes compressed air from the low-pressure compressor, cools it to optimal temperatures and then redelivers it to the high-pressure compressor. In providing a constant stream of low temperature air to the high pressure compressor, the work of compression is reduced. The result is a higher pressure ratio...

Proven, reliable technology Better efficiency also means less fuel burned per megawatt generated and less CO2 emissions. The efficiency advantage of the LMS100 can offer potential savings in terms of CO2 taxes through reduced greenhouse gas emissions of as much up to €435,000 each year* when compared to a typical simple-cycle gas turbine plant. Based on an average peaking season of 2,300 hours, the LMS100 reduces CO2 emissions by more than 31,000 metric tons when compared to a typical simple-cycle 100 MW gas turbine plant. This CO2 reduction is equal to the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by...
