The hydrogen- and water-cooled GIGATOP 2-pole generator is used for coal power plants, nuclear full speed turbines, and can be found in 100 systems worldwide.
Efficient and flexible
The cooling system sustains a high level of efficiency. Its unique press plate design provides higher reactive power and stabilization in case of grid disturbance.
Robust and reliable design
One GIGATOP unit in the U.S. boasted 607 days of uninterrupted operation before a scheduled shutdown.
Continuously evolving technology
The first GIGATOP 2-pole generator was developed in the 1970s and has improved continuously ever since, based on operating experience feedback.
