Case Studies

As the energy industry increasingly explores low-carbon solutions, many organizations are evaluating the feasibility of combusting hydrogen or hydrogen-blended fuels in existing gas turbine assets. Understanding the performance implications of varying hydrogen content is essential for making informed decisions about fuel transitions, but these impacts are often non-obvious and require sophisticated analysis.

A client needed a way to evaluate the economic impact of different air filtration strategies for their gas turbine operations. The challenge involved balancing multiple competing factors: filter efficiency, pressure drop effects on turbine performance, maintenance costs, water wash scheduling, and long-term operational expenses.

A client in the power generation sector recognized that digital twin technologies were being developed inconsistently across their organization, leading to duplicated efforts and challenges in deploying these tools effectively. Without a standardized approach, teams struggled to leverage real-world operational data, create adaptable models, and integrate emerging technologies like AI and machine learning into their workflows.

A power generation company sought to enhance their gas turbine fleet monitoring capabilities, particularly around combustion dynamics. They needed a solution that could provide early detection of anomalous behavior related to instrumentation issues, tuning problems, and potential hardware damage before these issues led to costly unplanned outages or equipment damage.

A client in the power generation industry sought to enhance their operational capabilities through advanced digital modeling of gas turbine assets. The goal was to create a sophisticated monitoring solution that could provide deeper insights into turbine performance and support data-driven decision making.

Power generation operators managing multiple assets often struggle to balance competing priorities: responding quickly to grid demands, maintaining optimal efficiency, and minimizing maintenance impacts across their fleet. Traditional dispatch approaches rely on static models that fail to account for real-time equipment health, leading to suboptimal bidding strategies and reduced profitability.
