ScottishPower Renewables announced that 102 Wind Turbines Installed at East Anglia One,  The Popular  offshorewind.biz  revealed that,  DEME’s  Sea Installer  and  Sea Challenger  vessels have been installing the Siemens Gamesa 7 MW offshore wind turbines at the project site, located 43 kilometers off Suffolk, since June 2019. Wind turbine components were pre-assembled and loaded out from Peel Ports Great Yarmouth. ScottishPower Renewables said that, during the East Anglia wind turbine installation, the company also reached a milestone of installing its 1,000th megawatt of offshore wind power. Furthermore, Siemens Gamesa marked the installation of its 1,000th Direct Drive offshore wind turbine during this project. East Anglia ONE generated the first electricity in September 2019. Once fully commissioned, the 714 MW wind farm will produce enough electricity to meet the annual demands of the equivalent of over 630,000 homes....

GE Power said it has been selected by the Jiangsu Etern Company Limited to supply its  LMS100 gas turbine for an upcoming 100 MW simple cycle natural gas-based power plant located in the city of Shahjibazar in Bangladesh. The order, worth multi-million USD, includes supplying the gas turbine equipment and providing related services for installation, testing and commissioning. The project is expected to be commissioned in the second quarter of 2019. The LMS100 is among GE’s high-efficiency aeroderivative gas turbines designed to meet fluctuating grid conditions due to their heightened flexibility and helping to provide a high degree of stability to the grid. The embedded dual-fuel capability gives additional flexibility to the gas turbine, enabling it to operate on both natural gas and liquefied propane gas (LPG) with zero fuel tr...

I’ve frequently spoken about the power of digital. In all my years working in the energy industry there hasn’t been anything this exciting and potentially game changing. I believe the digital transformation of electricity is the single biggest opportunity we have to make power more accessible to the over billion people who don’t have it; more reliable for the over two billion who don’t have enough of it; and more sustainable for the people who have it. But it’s going to require putting aside our fears about digital and combining forces within the energy ecosystem to embrace this opportunity. Today, the energy ecosystem is an interconnected matrix of hardware and software technologies, from distribution to consumption, as well as production. Technology advancements, environmental concerns, changing consumer behavior, regulatory and policy changes, unprecedented fuel availability, and resource constraints are driving transformations in th...
