Power Plants
If it’s efficiency you’re looking for, search no more. Our LMS100 aeroderivative gas turbine is the highest simple cycle
efficiency gas turbine in the world. Its intercooled gas turbine system provides rapid startup, with an 8-minute start
to full load and emergency ramp speeds of up to 500 MW/minute. In high renewable penetration areas like California,
our LMS100 gas turbines are providing 2.8 GW of generation with more than 1,400 MW/minute of ramping capability.

1.) Ramp rates are Fast Ramp via AGC.

NOTE: All ratings are net plant, based on ISO conditions and natural gas fuel. Actual performance will vary with project-specific
conditions and fuel.All performance figures based on Once-Through condenser with 1.2” Hga condenser pressure.
