February 18, 2024

Less than a year ago, GE Reports brought you the story of some of the people working to build the Tallawarra B power station, north of Sydney, Australia. This week, EnergyAustralia announced the opening of Tallawarra B, which is the first dual-fuel gas-and-hydrogen power plant in Australia. It will add as much as 320 megawatts (MW) to the grid, enough to power the equivalent of about 150,000 Australian homes.

Racing Toward Net Zero: How GE Vernova’s H-Class Turbines Are Helping Germany Transition from Coal to Gas, H2

Will Palmer
November 06, 2023

It was in the southwestern German city of Stuttgart in the 1880s that Karl Benz devised what is considered the first automobile, the Benz Patent-Motorwagen No. 1. ­­­­­Today Stuttgart serves as the headquarters of automakers like Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, making the city synonymous with speed. So it’s fitting that Stuttgart is now one of the sites where the country is racing ahead of the pack in one of the 21st century’s biggest industrial challenges.

China’s Zhoushan City archipelago, a sprawling collection of more than 1,390 islands about 100 miles south of Shanghai in the East China Sea, is a popular tourist destination, a center for commercial fishing, and home to half of one of the world’s busiest ports, the Port of Ningbo-Zhoushan. Now it’s also welcoming some of China’s most ambitious economic development projects. Government-backed efforts to establish new maritime industry development zones in Zhoushan are well underway, as are plans to rapidly expand the region’s hydrogen energy industry.

Power Vault: GE’s New Quick-Start Power Plant in Germany Aims to Deliver a Reliable Grid

Gregor Macdonald
June 21, 2023

One door closes, and another opens. Not far from one of Germany’s many retired nuclear power plants is a new kind of generator, never before seen on the country’s electricity grid. Opened in March, the 300-megawatt (MW) Biblis Grid Stability Power Plant has one job and one job only: to ensure stability in tense grid situations, when supply and demand are out of balance. In the energy system of the future, such flexible operating resources are important for secure grid operation.

June 15, 2023

Next week at Le Bourget Airport, north of Paris, more than 300,000 people are expected to descend — many of them literally, from the skies — for the oldest and most important gathering of the aviation industry. It’s a tradition going back to 1909, when a Blériot type XI monoplane captivated showgoers after having completed, just months before, the first successful flight across the English Channel.

H2 Oz: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Australia’s Plans for the First Hydrogen-Capable Power Plant

Few people know more about the electrons they use to power their day-to-day life than Michael Knez. Often up before dawn when all else is silent, Knez says he can hear the hum coming from Australia’s Tallawarra Power Station, four kilometers away across Lake Illawarra from his house, which Knez helped build some 14 years ago. A massive combined-cycle gas-fired power plant, Tallawarra produces enough electricity to supply the equivalent of roughly 200,000 Australian homes with substantially lower carbon emissions than the coal-fired plant it replaced.
