GPB15X
GPB15XGPB15X Ideal for customers demanding about 1.5 Mws of electric power with green engine emissions for operation in Emission attainment areas requiring very low engine emissions; Utilizes K-LEAN Combustion technology for the world's lowest emissions
The GPB15X is a heavy duty industrial type gas turbine engine utilizing the worlds best low emissions "green" technology.  The unit is based on our single combustor engine platform which has over 20 years of commercial operating experience and proven reliability. It incorporates our KLean catalytic flame less combustion system providing the worlds lowest engine exhaust emissions.   It is the "greenest" gas turbine engine on our planet.

 

 

 Our Green GT unit is ideal for use in emissions regulated areas, requiring single digit emission performance.  This GT unit is design for use in applications such as:  Hotels, Hospitals, Universities, institutions, high rise apartment buildings, office complexes and shopping malls with heating and cooling loads, pharmaceuticals,  city & municipal Subway systems, and other facilities with significant thermal and electrical loads.

This unit uses a low maintenance cold end drive, reducing coupling thermal growth issues.  The GT package design incorporates many features and benefits not typically found on industrial gas turbines of this size.

A Closer Look
Our  low emissions "Green"  GPB15X is ideal for cogeneration installation in: Hotels, Hospitals, Universities, Ethanol plants, Institutions with district heating and cooling, pharmaceuticals, food process plants, ethanol plants, light rail power/ city subway systems, aquariums, and other facilities with significant thermal and electrical loads.
