Join us for "Racing to the Start – Emerging Applications for Decarbonized Dispatchable Gas Turbine Power Through Hydrogen Fuel Adoption."
Intermittent, weather-dependent, and seasonal renewable power is chasing historic accelerating demand growth from electrification, data centers, and crypto mining but straining grid reliability and stability on congested transmission and distribution systems. Retrofitting gas turbines that allow the use of both fossil natural gas and up to 100% clean hydrogen provides a pragmatic bridging solution to anchor and accelerate the clean energy transition.
Learn About:
Grid Reliability with Renewable Integration: Understand the role of gas turbines in providing dispatchable power to balance the grid amidst the intermittency of solar and wind energy.
Decarbonizing Existing Gas Turbine Assets: Explore how retrofitting gas turbines with hydrogen blends and up to 100% hydrogen fuel can reduce emissions without new infrastructure.
Navigating Regulatory and Economic Factors: Gain insights into how emerging environmental regulations and incentives impact hydrogen adoption and gas turbine decarbonization strategies.
