9HA.01/.02 GAS TURBINES (50 Hz)

THE WORLDS LARGEST AND MOST EFFICIENT HEAVY DUTY GAS TURBINE
The 9HA high efficiency, air-cooled gas turbine is the industry leader. With two
available modelsthe 9HA.01 unit at 429 MW and the 9HA.02 unit at 519 MWyou
can select the right capacity to meet your generation needs. Thanks to a simplified
air-cooled architecture, advanced materials, and proven operability and reliability,
GEs 9HA units deliver exceptionally low life cycle cost per megawatt. The economies
of scale created by this high power density gas turbine, combined with its nearly
63 percent combined cycle efficiency, enable remarkably cost-effective conversion
of fuel to electricity to help you meet increasingly dynamic power demands.

Industry-Leading
Operational Flexibility for
Increased Dispatch and
Ancillary Revenue
Units offer fast, 12-minute ramp-up
from start command to gas turbine
full load.
Up to 70 MW/minute ramping
capability is achieved within
emissions compliance.

Full-Load Validation

F eatures a less complex configuration


than GEs previous H-class units, and
one that does not require cooled air.

A
 t the heart of GEs heavy duty gas
turbine validation program is the
advanced full-speed, full-load test
facility in Greenville, SC.

Modular systems ease installation


and reduce onsite labor requirements
by reducing field mechanical welds
by 25 percent and reducing field
installed valves by a factor of 10.

Turndown as low as 30 percent of gas


turbine baseload output is reached
within emissions compliance.

Maintenance is streamlined with


quick- removal turbine roof, fieldreplaceable blades, and 100 percent
borescope inspection coverage
for all blades.

Fuel flexible accommodates gas and


liquid fuels with wide gas variability,
including high ethane (shale) gas and
liquefied natural gas.

Simplified dual fuel system uses less


water, eliminates recirculation, and
utilizes enhanced liquid purge for
improved reliability and dependability.

Efficient, Flexible, Reliable Power

GEs portfolio of heavy duty and aeroderivative gas turbines helps


provide a sense of certainty in an uncertain world, delivering
operational flexibility and performance needed to adapt to a rapidly
evolving power generation environment. With gas turbine products
ranging in individual output from 22 MW to 519 MW, GE has a solution
to reliably and efficiently deliver the power needed by utility power
generators, industrial operators, and communities. Even in remote
locations and harsh conditions, you can count on GE to deliver a gas
turbine that will meet your needs.
All of our gas turbines share the common heritage of jet engine
technology pioneered by GE in the first half of the 20th century. They
are typically categorized as either heavy duty (sometimes also called
frame) or aeroderivative gas turbines, although some turbines
recently have adopted features of both design types. In general, the
differences between the aeroderivative and heavy duty gas turbines
are weight, size, combustor type, and turbine design. Heavy duty
gas turbines are usually field constructed and maintained in place,
whereas aeroderivative gas turbines are designed to allow for quick
replacement of the entire engine when maintenance is required.
