Asset Optimization
Generate more power with less emissions and fuel. Make your gas turbine’s fuel and air controls smarter using AI/ML with Autonomous Tuning software.
Speak with a team memberAutonomous Tuning is an on-premises solution that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to continually find the ideal flame temperatures and fuel splits for optimal combustion and gas turbine optimization. The software senses changes in ambient temperature, gas fuel properties and degradation, and sends real-time adjustments to the controls every two seconds. The Level 2 software is fully bound by the controls system safety-critical programming and is unable to harm the gas turbine.

“With Autonomous Tuning, GE Digital has introduced a practical industrial example of the use of machine learning in closed loop supervisory control, and all running at the Edge. This is a real-world application of AI for decarbonization with tangible reductions in emissions and fuel for gas turbine operators. This, and other building block sub-systems, are a step toward autonomous operations.”

A LM6000 peaking plant reduced CO emissions by 14% when operating with low-specific gravity composition that can increase CO emissions. NOx emissions were reduced by up to 12% when operating with high-specific gravity composition, which can increase NOx emissions. Manual tuning events were reduced from 4 to 0 while avoiding 12 days of downtime. Since the installation of the software, the plant has not experienced any high acoustics events, down from 6 the previous year.

A European LM6000 plant reduced NOx emissions by 10% without the need for a combustion overhaul alternative that would have cost the site $2M and require a 12-week outage. With Autonomous Tuning, the customer was able to generate power throughout all of 2020, previously unachievable without exceeding NOx credits. As a result, the site generated $300K more revenue than 2019. Manual tuning events were reduced from 2 to 0, avoiding 6 days of downtime. Since the installation of the software, the plant has not experienced high acoustics events.
