Ramesh Singaram, president and CEO, Asia, for GE Vernova’s Gas Power division said, “The plant is expected to deliver up to 1.8 GW of electricity to the grid in total and to be the among the most efficient in the country. “In addition, 7HA.03 gas turbine technology currently has the capability to burn up to 50% by volume of hydrogen when blended with natural gas, with a technology pathway to 100% over the next decade.” Singaram added, “We look forward to bringing this advanced technology to Kansai Electric, with whom we have a longstanding relationship built on years of mutual respect and trust, to help revitalize the Japanese power industry with more efficient and more sustainable technology, in alignment with the country’s energy goals.” GE Vernova also is expected to provide field services for the project. The company has been active in the power generation space in Japan for more than 130 years, and is responsible for more than half of the country’s heavy duty gas power capacity. —Darrell Proctor is a senior editor for POWER (@POWERmagazine).
