Abstract
The electrical power producing market has changed dramatically in the last few years. In order to meet the new requirements of the electricity producing market, ABB is proud to be able to present a repowering concept as a cost effective solution for the market which allows the power plant owners to extend the lifetime of their existing steam power plants by using the installed assets. The ABB repowering conceept takes advantage of ABB’s heavy duty gas turbines, and in particular of the sequential combustion gas turbines GT 24/GT 26. The repowering solutions, with their unique design, operation and dispatching flexibility, provide the owner with the benefits of competitive power generation: the owner can optimize the plant fuel and O & M costs, increase the availability, extend economic life and lower the environmental impact of the power plant. This paper describes the feasibility of combining conventional steam power plants with gas turbine technology and recommends the ABB repowering concept as one of the competitive alternatives for power generation, especially for the re-evaluation of existing assets and positioning in the competitive environment.
