Fast power with mobile and modular power plant units
As the demand for electricity grows significantly, GE offers products that can quickly and reliably provide, install, and commission power solutions to help meet those demands.
Power production can be rife with pitfalls, including failing infrastructure, extreme weather conditions, and rapid urbanization and industrialization. These factors can make helping to ensure increased and reliable power supply difficult.
Unlike emergency power, which can deliver temporary power capacity quickly to help meet short-term needs, fast power provides modular, baseload bridge-to-permanent power installations for reliable and efficient grid power. Each solution is engineered to save you valuable construction and lead time as well as capital expenditures. Options include:
The key to GE Gas Power’s ability to work to deliver varied and flexible modular power-generating units is turnkey construction. Our portable, compact, and heavy-duty mobile power plants encompass pre-packaged efficiency, making it possible to ramp up to full power in 15 minutes or less once installed. Mobile power generation units include dual-fuel capability without water consumption.
All solutions are warrantied and include detailed operation and maintenance programs. We can deliver our solutions in weeks and offer important support after installation, including:
With more than 100 years of power generation experience on our side, we’ve got the knowledge and skill to get you powered up quickly. See our full range of mobile power generation units below to learn more about the GE Fast Power solutions that are right for you.

Egypt’s growing population and industrialization is good for the country’s economy…
…but that same growth strains power grids, resulting in unplanned outages. Learn how GE Gas Power helped the country meet its goal to seamlessly and quickly provide more electricity with a combination of aeroderivative and heavy-duty gas turbines commissioned within a matter of months.
Hydro power works – until it doesn’t due to drought.
For Tanzania, a stable source of electrical power is imperative to drive its burgeoning economy. See how GE Gas Power helped the country take advantage of its natural gas supply to enhance operations and increase and stabilize its electricity capacity at its Ubungo power plant.
TM2500 mobile aeroderivative gas turbine
Fast, reliable power solutions like GE’s TM2500 technology are helping bridge the energy gap in Angola by providing power to the equivalent household energy needs of more than 24,000 families in Camama.
Its start time for a simple cycle is fewer than 5 minutes, and its ramp rate is 20MW/minute. The TM2500 is mobile and easy to transport. Its small block size allows good part-power turndown and efficiency. It is relocatable if project requirements change, and it comes with optional clutch-less synchronous condensing.
When Greece’s summer tourist season begins, so does the strain on the Greek power system.
To achieve a better balance of long-term and reliable power production, the country turned to GE Gas Power. Learn how GE’s TM2500+ gas turbine-generator was not only commissioned quickly to help meet summer tourism peak-power needs, but provides a flexible and permanent source of power generation to the island of Rhodes.
