Enabling hydrogen for customers all over the world

See why we're proud of our 30+ years of hydrogen experience in collaboration with the DOE and our customers.

KOREA:

A hydrogen-rich future: Partnering with Daesan

GE developed a low-NOx hydrogen combustion system, which is now an element in its gas turbines. Hydrogen use lowers industrial emissions, and GE customers already lean on it. Daesan Petrochemical in South Korea is one of them—running with 70% hydrogen fuel on a GE 6B gas turbine since 1997.

Decarbonizing the future with Long Ridge Energy

Together with New Fortress Energy, GE Gas Power announced that Long Ridge Energy in Ohio will be the first purpose-built, hydrogen-burning power plant in America—and the first hydrogen blend in a GE H-class turbine worldwide.

As one of the leaders in decarbonization for the gas turbine industry, we're thrilled to work with Long Ridge and New Fortress Energy. This first-of-its kind, GE HA-powered project will drive cleaner energy through hydrogen, ultimately producing carbon-free power

ITALY

Potential energy: Italy’s Enel relies on GE turbines for hydrogen demonstration

Can a 100% hydrogen power plant work? Aided by GE Oil & Gas, the Enel Group wanted to find out, and test-operated its Fusina plant on a hydrogen-to-natural gas blend. Using a GE10-1 turbine, Fusina became the site of a 100% H₂ demonstration—a model that proved not only innovative but also reliable.

We're now avoiding the complex infrastructure of moving hydorgen around, and looking forward to seeing green hydrogen supply Enel's refinery and biorefinery processes.

AUSTRALIA

GE technology behind Australia's first gas and hydrogen blend power plant set for 2023

EnergyAustralia’s Tallawarra B Power Station is relying on GE’s combustion technology experience to build the country’s first dual-fuel, natural gas + hydrogen plant. From generation to system control, GE will help accelerate Australia’s energy transition with fuel-flexible alternatives like hydrogen. The power plant will operate as a "peaker" plant, firing up rapidly when needed to stabilize the power grid during demand peaks, and it will use partial loads of hydrogen to help decrease its emissions footprint.

Our new open-cycle, hydrogen-and-gas-capable turbine will provide firm capacity on a continuous basis and will pave the way for additional cleaner energy sources to enter the system. We are leading the sector by building the first net zero emissions hydrogen and gas capable power plant in New South Wales.

GERMANY

GE and Uniper: Decarbonizing gas plants throughout Europe

Along with GE’s help, Germany’s Uniper Utility is actively decarbonizing its gas-fired plants. This agreement is GE’s first with a major energy player like Uniper—and their emissions-friendly roadmap aims at replacing fossil fuels with hydrogen, starting with the U.K. and the Netherlands.

This agreement with GE is proof of our commitment to move ahead with the decarbonization of our power generation and storage facilities. In a few years, Uniper's European fleet will consist mainly of climate-friendly, gas-fired power plants and CO2-free hydropower.

SPAIN

For GE and Spain’s CEPSA, more hydrogen equals less carbon

CEPSA asked GE to innovate a way to boost turbine efficiency for its Gibraltar-San Roque petrochemical refinery. GE’s High Hydrogen Fuel DLN technology not only increased CEPSA’s efficiency—driving down CO2 emissions as a result—it eliminated the need for water-based power generation, a first for refineries.

GE Power Generation Services helped us increase plant efficiency and reduce our environmental footprint, supporting goals to produce cleaner energy and meet our region's stringent emissions requirements. We appreciate GE's commitment to investing in flexible and efficient technologies that enable us to reduce our footprint.
