1 周Great overview of the AD technology for the uninitiated. I have a couple of questions: when supporting high levels of solar/wind (e.g. 80%+) what is the expected capacity factor, or range, would be expected. Second, I've been hearing about hybrid battery + gas plants (simple/combined), can ADs be paired with batteries as well? Lastly, I've heard about long backlogs due to turbine blade and other supply chain issues. Are these hitting AD turbines as well? If not, assuming infrasture is in place, what's the normal lead time from procure to commission? Thanks in advance for your answers, especially since I'm not a commercial buyer.

2 个月Many municipalities are still running with 1960s or 1970s technology. Certainly those gas turbines have proven to be unbelievably robust. But likely with modern demands, we will see many of those old work horses honorably put out to pasture and replaced with aero-derivative young stallions. It’s a good time to evaluate the herd. Remember it’s not just the GT but also the generator, starting means, control. And accessories that is aging. For some of you the old horse is still fine. Others need a plan soon.
