Improvements in gas engine technology, combined with smarter engineering of power plants, is driving emand for more distributed power, according to engine supplier Clarke Energy. “The latest Jenbacher biogas engines stretch electrical efficiency levels to 43%; delivering additional renewable electricity for the same input of gas,” Alex Marshall, Group Marketing & Compliance Manager at Clarke Energy told Gas Power Techonology Quarterly. 4th QUARTER 2014 S iemens' modularization concept, applied at an average combined cycle power plant project with a maximum workforce of 600 and 1.3 million direct man-hours, allows for around 300,000 manhours to be shifted to production facilities. This enables to save costs and speed-up construction. "The more of these modules we can prefabricate and test in advance, the fewer problems we anticipate for installation, quality assurance and commissioning at the specific project location", Balling told Gas Power technology Quarterly.
