Mitsubishi Power G-Series turbines to power 933 MW Texas plant
Two Mitsubishi Power G-Series air-cooled (GAC) advanced class gas turbines will power the 993 MW Montgomery County Power Station, operated by Entergy Texas.
The companies are exploring integrating hydrogen-enabled gas turbine technology to decarbonize power generation at Entergy’s utility businesses in Texas and three other states through a collaboration announced in September 2020.
Mitsubishi Power's G-series turbines are capable of operating on a mixture of up to 30% hydrogen and 70% natural gas. The gas turbines can be outfitted to operate on up to 100% hydrogen in the future.
The Montgomery plant’s G-Series gas turbines are the 93rd and 94th to reach commercial operation worldwide. For Entergy, they are the fifth and sixth to reach commercial operation, joining others at Entergy Louisiana’s 994 MW Lake Charles Power Station and 980 MW J. Wayne Leonard Power Station.
