A leader in the +40 MW space, the LM6000* has over 40 million operating hours and more than 1,300 units shipped.
LM6000 power plants
With over 40 million operating hours and more than 1,300 units shipped, GE’s LM6000 aeroderivative gas turbine is a leader in the +40 MW space. The LM6000 offers greater than 99 percent start and operational reliability and over 98 percent availability. Its 5-minute fast start allows operators to differentiate their dispatch capability while a simple two-spool design results in lower overall maintenance costs. Universal and modular packaging gives the LM6000 a smaller footprint and allows for faster installation and commissioning.
Fuel flexibility
The LM6000 allows you to operate on a wide variety of fuels—including natural gas, LPG (propane and butane), isopentane, ethanol, diesel, and Coke Oven gas. This means you can quickly switch between fuels to save money, all without stopping, and without a reduction in power.
Modular, fast installation
Universal and modular packaging gives the LM6000 a smaller footprint and allows for faster installation—in as little as 3 months for simple cycle and 12 months for combined cycle configurations—the fastest installation time in our history.
Proven technology
With over 1,300 units shipped and 40 million combined operating hours, the LM6000 family has more operating experience than any other aeroderivative gas turbine greater than 40 MW.
