- Brownfield Engine Exchange (BEX) delivers cleaner energy, long-term reliability, improved efficiency and more powerful performance
- Making Energy Greener is one of Siemens’ continuing core focus areas as the global energy landscape evolves and changes
- Over 30 engine exchange projects worldwide to date with several recent new orders
Siemens Gas and Power is focused on helping customers navigate the world’s most pressing energy problems, both for today and tomorrow. Essential applications include providing products, solutions and services that make fossil energy greener. A recent example is a project in Alabama where Siemens is has completed its first large gas turbine section exchange in the U.S. - delivering on that commitment. In this way Siemens is helping make energy greener and more sustainable in an evolving energy landscape.
- Siemens' broad energy portfolio and services will help ensure long-term reliability and efficient operations
- Integrated, redundant plant design features two SGT-600 gas turbines with DLE technology running on residue gas with high concentrations of hydrogen
- Project highlights the integrated value of Siemens Gas and Power
Braskem, the largest petrochemical company in Latin America, recently entered into an agreement with Siemens to modernize a cogeneration power and steam plant at its Petrochemical Complex in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Completion of the project is expected in early 2021.
- Siemens to replace four floating power generation barges in the Upper Bay of New York City
- SeaFloat turnkey solution will provide reliable peaking power for New York City's renewable ambitions
- Boost power generating efficiency by nearly 50 percent
- 20-year long-term service agreement signed
Astoria Generating Company and Siemens signed a contract for
the turnkey construction of two SeaFloat power barges to be equipped with eight
Siemens SGT-A65 gas turbines. The barges will replace four existing power
barges located at Gowanus Generating Station in the Upper Bay of Brooklyn, New
York City, resulting in cleaner, more efficient energy production. Siemens will
preinstall the high-efficiency power generating facilities on two newly
constructed floating barges with a generation capacity of about 300 megawatts
(MW) each. Retrofitting the station with SGT-A65 gas turbines and generators
will improve the plants' power generating efficiency by nearly 50 percent while
significantly reducing potential emissions of pollutants like carbon dioxide
and monoxide – all while using the existing gas infrastructure.
- Siemens Gas and Power to supply three 33-MW industrial gas turbines to Ascend’s Decatur, Alabama facility
- The project will enable the chemical materials manufacturer to increase operating efficiency and reduce its environmental footprint
Siemens Gas and Power was recently selected to provide three 33-megawatt (MW) SGT-700 industrial gas turbines, including a Long-Term Program (LTP), with Ascend Performance Materials’ nylon intermediate and specialty chemicals facility in Decatur, Alabama. This project will allow Ascend Performance Materials to retire assets that currently provide process steam for the facility. The shift to gas turbines for steam generation is part of Ascend’s long-term sustainability strategy to improve its environmental footprint and accelerate the growth of expanding its core businesses.
