9E Gas Turbine Proven Performance


for 50 Hz Applications
High Reliability and Availability
GE Energy has more than 500 9E gas turbines in service that have
accumulated over 23 million fired hours for utility and industrial
customersoften in arduous climates that range from desert heat
and tropical humidity to arctic cold. The 9E was introduced in 1978
with an output of 105 MW. Since then, GEs 9E has incorporated
numerous component improvements and now boasts an output of
126 MW. In a combined-cycle configuration, it is capable of achieving
52.7% efficiency. For customers needing additional performance,
GE Energy offers an optional Performance Improvement Pack
which can provide up to 2.1+% incremental output and as much as
a 1.7% reduction in heat rate in simple cycle applications.

Whether used for simple or combined cycle applications, base


load or peaking duty, 9E gas turbines are comprehensively
engineered with integrated systems that include controls, auxiliaries,
ducts and silencing. GEs Dry Low NOx (DLN) combustion system
is also available on the 9E, allowing it to achieve NOx and CO
emissions below 15 ppm and 25 ppm respectively when burning
natural gas.

Fuel Flexibility
Designed for reliable operation and minimal maintenance at a
competitively low cost, the 9E gas turbine also has flexible fuel
handling capabilitiesincluding natural gas, light and heavy
distillate oil, naphtha, crude oil and residual oilwith the ability to
switch from one fuel to another while running under load. This
machine can also burn a variety of Medium-Btu or Low-Btu gases,
including Syngas produced from oil or coal gasification and Blast
Furnace Gas mixed with richer gas.
In simple cycle, the 9E is a reliable, low first-cost machine for
peaking service, while its high combined-cycle efficiency helps
to reduce cost in base load operations. The compact design of the
9E provides flexibility in plant layout as well as the easy addition of
increments of power when a phased capacity expansion is
required. In addition to power generation, the 9E is also well suited
for mechanical drive applications.
