Imagine a world with access to electricity and clean water – a world with less pollution, less noise disturbances and sufficient resources. A tough challenge and also a necessity when looking at the world’s growing population and climate change. But this is the world that Siemens wants to fit in – with SeaFloat, the new mobile floating power plant. SeaFloat power plants will support New York's renewable energy strategy Astoria Generating Company and Siemens signed a contract for the turnkey construction of two SeaFloat power plants to be equipped with eight Siemens SGT·A65 gas turbines. Mobility, rapid deployment and flexibility shape our future We have taken up the idea of floating power plants and brought our latest, highly efficient gas turbine frames on to floating devices, thus defining a new class of floating power plants. The evolution of open and combined cycle power plants from land to sea are based on our successful - gas turbines series (e.g. SGT-800, SGT-A65 and SGT-8000H) - proven steam turbine series (e.g. SST-600, SST-5000) as well as our reliable generator series (e.g. SGen-100A, SGen-2000P). Mobility, flexibility and no need for land acquisition are the most prominent features which distinguish SeaFloat power plants from conventional land-based plants. These features come along with short lead time due to high prefabrication grade and enhanced plug & play concept as well as reduced overall project investments making them interesting for various applications. It is possible to electrify remote areas with mobile SeaFloat power plants enabling deployment and development and pushing economic growths in these areas.
