Steam power plant services and solutions
Can one company help you reduce costs, increase operational efficiency, and meet emissions regulations? Our answer is “yes.”
The steam power industry has never been more demanding. Operating budgets are tighter and the need for flexibility is more critical than ever. These changes make it even more imperative to have steam power plant services with capabilities and flexibility to match.
GE is able to help our customers with everything from best-in-class upgrades and retrofits to core operations and maintenance across more than 90 OEM brands. Every day, we have more than 6,000 field service employees delivering solutions that help secure a productive future for nuclear, coal, and industrial plants all over the world.
And when it comes to our customers’ most pressing questions, our answer is YES. It’s a small but meaningful word that helps keep the power on for everyone, everywhere. At GE, we are transforming the future of steam through our services, creating extraordinary outcomes for tomorrow and beyond. This is the Power of Yes.
YES. We have a proven track record of executing on schedule and on budget for our customers throughout our steam power plant services. Our proactive outage planning based on fleet history allows us to focus maintenance spend where it’s most needed.
YES. Applying GE’s full suite of upgrade solutions to the world’s existing fleet could improve the average efficiency of coal plants from 34% to 38%. That four-point improvement is the equivalent of removing all the CO2 emissions from Germany. And every point of efficiency gained means around 3% less coal is needed for the same output, adding up to $5 million per year in additional value for a typical 1,000 MW power plant.
