The gas turbine power generation market is on the way to some normalcy after a decline in the mid-2010s and the COVID-19 pandemic. With recovery in prospect, the shift to greener machines is underway with the major turbine players announcing increasing amounts of hydrogen to power their turbines. Siemens Energy, General …

Gas turbine power plants work by compressing air which is then mixed with fuel and ignited in a combustion chamber. This powers a turbine, which drives both a generator to produce electricity and the air compressor. Gas turbines have three main parts - an air compressor, combustion chamber, and turbine. They can use fuels like oil, …

Key learnings: Gas Turbine Power Plant Definition: A gas turbine power plant is defined as a facility that generates electricity using high-pressure, high-temperature air to turn a turbine instead of steam. Working Principle: Gas turbine power plants operate by compressing air, heating it, and then using the high-energy air to turn a …
