Stanton Energy Reliability Center
Hayden design supports innovative lube oil cooling solution for hybrid energy generation center near LA.
Challenges
- Provide innovative lube oil cooling system for hybrid generation in Southern California Edison in West Los Angeles Basin Subarea.
- Achieve complete system site emissions reduction of about 80% while enabling increased renewable energy penetration onto the grid.
- Site required to fit in with urban surroundings.
Solution
- Utilize two of Hayden’s TTT- 460s ,which are the most efficient gas turbine lube oil cooling systems available to reduce operating costs.
- Power generating system to utilize battery storage of power which provides:
- Greenhouse gas-free operating reserve
- Flexible capacity without start time
- Peaking energy for local contingencies
- Voltage support and primary frequency response without fuel burn
- Superior transient response
Additional Information
The Stanton Energy Reliability Center (SERC) consists of two General Electric (GE) LM6000-based EGTs. EGT refers to the LM6000 PC Hybrid EGT jointly developed by General Electric International, Inc. (GE) and Wellhead Power Solutions. The EGT combines a combustion gas turbine with an integrated battery storage component operated by a proprietary software system, and utilized efficient Hayden lube oil cooling systems.
The two GE LM6000 PC units will be natural gas-fired, simple-cycle combustion turbine, a clutch to provide operational flexibility as a synchronous condenser, and an integrated 10-megawatt (MW) GE Battery Energy Storage System. In total, SERC is proposing to provide 98 MW (nominal) of EGT capacity.
