SGT6-8000H heavy duty gas turbine for 60 Hz power generation

The SGT6-8000H fires up

Combined cycle power plants based on the SGT6-8000H (plant name: SCC6-8000H) are profitable solutions for competitive energy markets with fluctuating power demand. Featuring a fast-start capability, it will achieve combined cycle base load within 30 min for hot start (start-up gradient: 30 MW/min). High load gradients allow for fast load changes. With excellent peaking capabilities, and a high part load efficiency with emission compliance down to lower part load, the SGT6-8000H plants strike an optimal balance between capital costs, performance, and operational considerations. 

SGT6-8000H: Designed for short outages and easy maintenance

Siemens Energy offer Long Term Programs (LTP), overhaul services, field service, spare parts, reconditioning of components and modernization upgrades. Scheduled servicing and short-term support are available on-site all over the world.

The SGT6-8000H generator package is optimized for short outages. On-site rotor maintenance, including rotor de-stacking and balancing, eliminates the need for a spare rotor as well as transport costs for workshop maintenance. All compressor blades are replaceable without rotor de-stack or lift. 

Fuel flexibility matters

The SGT6-8000H gas turbines are capable of firing a wide range of fuel gas, and fuel oil; as well as a wide range of non-standard fuels like LNG, syngas, low-calorific gases (low-BTU gases), naphta, condensate and others. The engines, equipped with DLE burners, can use up to 30 vol% of hydrogen (H₂).
