Mechanical integrity and performance throughout the full load range Start-up, shut-down and load following Low emissions throughout the load range Assembly and disassembly.

The first 60-Hz gas turbine ships for testing in 2010.

The SGT5-8000H, a 50-Hz version, has been fully validated in simple cycle operation at Irsching IV, in Germany, where it has demonstrated capabilities under real operating conditions. It currently is being converted into a single-shaft combined cycle power plant scheduled for completion in 2011.
