73% reduction in outage duration
In late 2009, at the invitation of an owner firm, Deltaway conducted a global audit of this power plant, which had a four-year history of declining performance.
Our facility makeover optimized the plant’s steam cycle for increased power production and modified the combustion control logic to stabilize combustion and reduce emissions and equipment wear.
