Cooking With Gas: GE’s Record-Breaking Turbines Prove Their Mettle

Amy Kover
September 15, 2017
In June 2016, a power plant just outside Bouchain, a town in the north of France, had its moment in the sun when it broke the Guinness world record for fuel efficiency. Not only did the plant’s newly installed GE gas turbine hit a net efficiency rate of 62.2 percent, but the turbine could also ramp up to full power within a half an hour, an important factor for utilities bringing on the grid electricity from renewable sources like wind and solar farms.

The Real Point Break: Where The World’s Largest Gas Turbines Prove Their Mettle

December 15, 2015
In parts of the world like the US and Brazil where electric current oscillates at 60 Hz, there’s no larger and more efficient gas turbine than a machine GE calls 7HA. So efficient, in fact, that when it swallows and burns 3.3 tons of air mixed with natural gas - equivalent to 23 tanker trucks - out comes a mere 6.3 fluid ounces of pollution, a volume slightly larger than a half- can of soda.

They Might Be Giants: The World’s Largest Gas Turbines Will Light Up Pakistan

October 28, 2015
Each one weighs nearly 400 tons, as much as two really big blue whales. Each one will cover thousands of miles by sea and land from the place of their birth in Belfort, France, to the farming town of Bhikki in Pakistan’s Punjab province. They are still fairly unknown, but once they reach their destination, they will affect millions of lives.
