McCoy documents the most recent power generation project information, providing context to and insights on the most recent trends

[David Hetherington @McCoyPowerRpts]

Just wanted to show the market trend for global, baseload technology demand as we track it through the original equipment markets.

"It wasn't too long ago that bioethanol was looked at as only 20% better than gasoline, now we're nearly 50% better in greenhouse gas emissions." –Doug Berven, POET VP of Corporate Affairs

Listen to Doug's recent interview with Linder Farm Network:

Emissions and generation. How are the Gas Turbine units impacting this topic.... if you find @Simpfany interesting or want to keep up with what we are doing please follow us. #GasTurbine #energytwitter #emissions

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

The simple cycle fleet accommodates spikes in power gen demand and is widely viewed as the target market for battery storage, everyone really wants to know what the true demand is?..read more https://t.co/yPz9VKsU6e #gasturbine #BatteryStorage @GasTurbineJrnl

The effects of Covid have started to show in the power generation space. Gross load was down 9.2% for 20MWe units and above. 1Q '20 shows a dramatic dip in #power generated but they types of equipment utilized show real change.. #gasturbine #EnergyTransition @McCoyPowerRpts

Looking at states with Declining Fossil NetGen. Illinois is #5 with a reduction of Fossil NetGen from 47% in 2014 to 28% in 2018. This is #EnergyTransition. #wind #solar and #gasturbines are taking over. Details in image @EIAgov

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

Updated: we are looking at the declines in Fossil Net Get for the U.S. fleet. Lots of info so please click the image to get the details. Highlight is that Fossil NetGen is down 25% since 2014. #GasTurbine and #renewables covering the slack #energy #EnergyTransition

#1 on our top thermal efficient unit is 7 at Sewaren
@PSEGdelivers
.. The unit a GE 7HA.02 1x1
@GE_Power
was the most thermal efficient unit 1H'19 at 56.9 for the period (min 3500 op hours). Way to go both sides. #energyefficiency making #cleanenergy happen.

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

#4 most thermal efficient CC units (US based 3500hrs) 1H'19 are at Port Everglades FL @insideFPL This plant has 3 @Siemens_Energy SGT6-800H units in a single CC block (rates in chart). @Siemens @EPA #energytwitter #oilandgas #energyefficiency

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

People often ask what we do. We have built a small sample sheet and put in on our website. Ever wonder how a specific unit is function on the US grid we can help. We even have manufacture info @EPA #energydata https://t.co/LnwFz23RU7 #powergeneration

If you are over at @WECongress, today is the last chance to test out your #EnergyTransition knowledge with @Siemens ...

So be sure to drop by ( & it's challenging 🤔 ...)

#2 on our list of lowest emission GTs for 1h'19 is Flordia Power and Lights Unit3 @FPL_Newsroom @insideFPL at Cape Canaveral. The unit is a @Siemens_Energy SGT6-800H.
#cleanenergy doing it right. Operating chart below. @SiemensUSA

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

This week we are looking at the GTs with the lowest emission rates (min 3500 running hours) for 1H'19. #5 is Indianapolis Power & Light’s @IPLPower unit 1 at Eagle Valley is a @GE_Power 7F.05 gas turbine. Rate was 0.375 CO2 short tons/MWh. Details in graph #emissions

.@Cheniere & @Bechtel commission liquefied #NaturalGas export train at #CorpusChristi facility. Deals with @edfenergy @iberdrola and others proving that U.S. LNG will help fuel #electricity generation globally: https://t.co/tIcO88WwAo

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

CO2 per generated MWe continues its sharp decline. Most recently it registered 0.71 short tons per MWh, down from 1.03 in 1998. See below for details. #reducedemissions #energytransformation #gasturbine #boilers this week we will look at the 5 units with lowest rates. follow

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

According to @EPA data GT units of 20 MWe or larger produced gross load of 623M MWe for the first half of 2019. 7.1% more than the same period of 2018 #energyefficiency @GE_Power @Siemens_Energy and #MHPS #energytwitter

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

Interesting view on how renewables growth has spurred on the SC gas turbine uitilization. We will be coming out with Q2 data this week. Let us know if you are interested in getting updates via email. https://t.co/wsw5VdjcqV #RenewableEnergy #GasTurbine @McCoyPowerRpts

The #1 most utilized Advance Class GT (US based) for 1Q'19 was Lackawanna’s GE 7HA.02. The unit generated a huge 971k MWh in the 1stQ. The players are @InvenergyLLC and @GE_Power. The operating profile is below. #energytwitter #energyefficiency #sustainableenergy

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

The #2 most utilized Advanced Class GT (US based) for 1Q'19 is...Carty (Oregon) unit 1... They are crushing it. Unit 1 is a @MHPS M501GAC. the players are @portlandgeneral @McCoyPowerRpts #energystories #CleanEnergyFuture

[Simpfany @SIMPFANY]

The #3 most utilized Advanced Class GT (US based) for 1Q'19 is...Brunswick 1C... They are crushing it. 1C is a @MHPS M501GAC. Again the players are @DomEnergyNews @VirginiaPower @FluorCorp @McCoyPowerRpts #gasturbine #energy .. check back tomorrow for #2
