CCGT Plants in Germany - other Länder

Brunsbuttel Location: SH Operator: Vattenfall Europe AG Configuration: 4 X 62 MW GT13 gas turbines Fuel: distillate oil Operation: 1973-1974 T/G supplier: BBC Photograph courtesy of Vattenfall Posted 4 Sep 2006	HKW Linden Location: NI Operator: Stadtwerke Hannover AG Configuration: 255-MW, 2+1 CCGT with one V64.3A gas turbine and one 6001FA gas turbine Fuel: natural gas Operation: 1998-2013 HRSG supplier: NEM, Standardkessel Baumgarte T/G supplier: Siemens, GE EPC: Siemens Quick facts: HKW Linden is a landmark in Hannover and the triple boiler towers gave rise to the nickname "Die drei warmen Brüder." The plant started off as a trio of 55-MW coal-fired CHP units. These were converted to natural gas and oil fuels. The last steam set was then converted to operation in combined-cycle in 1995 and when it retired in Mar 2011, the machine had run for over 270,000hrs. Another GT was added in 2013 along with a new HRSG and a new steam set from Siemens Görlitz. This 96-MW SST-800 machine was the largest built to that data in the Görlitz factory and is powered by both gas turbines.

The Emsland Lingen site already hosts a nuclear unit and several conventional gas-fired blocks. It is well connected to the national grid as well as accessible to five gas pipelines. The peak construction workforce at Lingen CC amouted to 750 people. They installed over 20,000t of concrete, 1,500km of piping and over 400km of cable. The HRSGs are the first in Europe to have once-through HP sections. Thermal efficiency is 59%+. The turnkey order was awarded in Sep 2005. Photograph courtesy of RWE AG Posted 17 Apr 2010
Moorburg Location: HH Operator: Vattenfall Europe AG Configuration: 2 X 79 MW V93 gas turbines Fuel: distillate oil Operation: 1980 (ret) T/G supplier: Siemens Quick facts: This peaking plant was closed in 2009 and dismantled to make room for a new-build coal-fired plant.

In 1995, SVZ began processing solid and liquid coal prep wastes into syngas. In 1997, SVZ built a CCGT block as part of its g asification works and this ran on syngas until 2007 when syngas production was discontinued. In Jul 2008, the power plant was acquired by Atel.
