Mitsubishi Power Completes GTCC Upgrade at Damhead Creek Power Station

(Oilandgaspress) -] Mitsubishi Power, a power solutions brand of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), today announced the successful completion of an upgraded reliability package at the 812MW natural gas-fired gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) power generation plant at Damhead Creek Power Station, which is owned and operated by leading power company VPI.


The package for the facility at Damhead Creek consists of different elements which combined will achieve better start up response, increased performance and improved reliability. It also includes an upgrade to the turbine control system.
These efficiency and reliability upgrades are vital for gas turbines, given that gas-fired power plants are increasingly being used as essential flexible assets that support intermittent renewable energy. This is especially true in countries like the UK, which have a high degree of renewable penetration and where these plants are required to frequently start and stop generation as and when the system needs it.
