Summary
Industrial Info Resources' Unit Database includes more than 49,000 records of combustion turbines throughout world, in all stages of development and spanning multiple industries.Your One Stop for Combustion Turbine Info
Natural gas-fired combustion turbines are in high demand as power grid operators seek to shore up baseload energy resources against a tidal wave of power-hungry data centers, while data center operators themselves have increasingly begun building their own gas-fired generation to run their facilities. Actionable details about combustion turbines anywhere in the world--whether operational, pre-commissioned or decommissioned--can be found at Industrial Info Resources. The company's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Unit Database as of Friday, May 22, had individual records on 49,269 combustion turbines throughout the world, a dynamic number that continues growing.Our Coverage
Industrial Info Resources' combustion turbine data cover all phases of a turbine's life from the planning process to its operational life to its final decommissioning, and even includes records related to projects that have been cancelled. Included in Industrial Info Resources' combustion turbine coverage are:- Nearly 19,000 records for simple-cycle combustion turbines.
- Detailed information on 11,629 combined-cycle units.
- Information on 35,744 baseload units; 4,278 intermediate units; and 8,798 peaking units
A Dive into Texas
A dive into the Industrial Info Resources GMI Unit Database can provide a variety of details, providing actionable data that fits your needs. Using Texas as an example, dive into unparalleled combustion turbine coverage, where one can find:- Records for 2,551 combustion turbines and turbine compressor drives, including 1,093 online units, 536 planned units and 922 offline units.
- Records for 72 combustion turbines currently under construction, with a substantial number being built at the Longhorn Data Center in Abilene, part of the massive countrywide Project Stargate data center development. The Longhorn campus boasts 28 simple-cycle combustion turbines under construction, each rated at 35 megawatts (MW).
- Records on 15 combined-cycle units under construction, including Entergy's Orange County Advanced Power Station, where data indicate more than 1,200 MW of combined-cycle capacity under construction.
- Coverage ranging outside of the Power Industry, picking up data on two units under construction at Exxon Mobil Corporation and QatarEnergy's Golden Pass liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant on the Gulf Coast.
- Deeper dives into more granular data. For example, Harris County, home to Houston, has records for four units under construction, including two simple-cycle General Electric units at NRG's T.H. Wharton Power Station, which is in the process of wrapping up construction.
Related Project Info
The Industrial Info Resources GMI Project Database offers plenty of related project information. For example, two of the eight buildings of the Longhorn data center have been completed and the remaining buildings of the $16 billion project are expected to be completed later this year.Power database coverage includes information on both the Orange County and Wharton power plants, including project start and completion dates, individual contact details for key players from the design-engineering process to the contractors and subcontractors building the plant, equipment needs, project milestones, and more. Oil & Gas Production Database users can find similar info about the prior and remaining construction at the Golden Pass LNG plant. Each project report also includes links to each combustion turbine unit being installed.
Subscribers to the GMI Project Database can learn more by viewing the records on the Longhorn, Orange County, Wharton and Golden Pass construction.
