Outstanding Efficiency Solar turbine generator sets are highly efficient simple-cycle units. When installed in combined cycle and combined heat and power applications, the efficiency is further enhanced. For example, in energy-saving cogeneration applications, overall system thermal efficiencies of 70-80% are common.
Solar gas turbines operate on a wide variety of fuels: • natural gas • distillates • natural gas liquids (NGLs) • liquefied petroleum gases (LPGs) • hydrogen • medium-Btu gas (coal-bed methane, landfill gas) Dual and tri-fuel systems can be configured for use with many models of Solar gas turbines.
Fast Delivery Modern, efficient manufacturing facilities and processes and skilled personnel enable Solar to quickly provided generator sets engineered and tested to fulfill specific customer requirements.
