MHI receives an order for up to six gas turbines and long-term services from
Georgia Power of the United States
MHI has received an order from Georgia Power of the U.S. to supply up to six M501G gas turbines to be installed at the company's Jack McDonough power plant in Smyrna, Georgia. The gas turbines have been ordered through Mitsubishi Power Systems Americas, Inc. (MPSA), the business base for MHI's power system operations in the U.S.
Each GTCC power island will have 840 MW of capacity and consist of two gas turbines, two heat recovery steam generators and one steam turbine. The first and the second GTCC unit are slated to go on-line in February and June 2011, respectively. Current plans call for the third unit to be operational in June 2012, using two optional gas turbines.
