Description Minimize

Power block consisting of Two 250 MW (nominal, ISO) combustion turbine generators (CTGs), each feeding exhaust gases to its respective heat recovery steam generator (HRSG).Steam from the two HRSGs is fed to one 250 MW (nominal), reheater, condensing steam turbine generator (STG).

 

Capacity : 750 MW

Date of Completion : 2005

Cairo North I Combined Cycle Project (750 MW) Minimize

The facility is designed to include a power block consisting of two 250 MW (nominal, ISO) combustion turbine generators (CTGs), each feeding exhaust gases to its respective heat recovery steam generator (HRSG).

Steam from the two HRSGs is fed to one 250 MW (nominal), reheater, condensing steam turbine generator (STG). The facility's net output is 750 MW (nominal, ISO).

This output is achieved by burning natural gas in the combustion turbines with no supplementary firing in the HRSGs. Nitrogen oxides emitted are controlled by dry low nitrogen oxides combustors.

An inlet air filtration system is included to supply suitable filtered combustion air to the CTGs.The steam exhausted through the steam turbine is dumped into a once - through cooling , single – pass, divided water – box condenser. Power is generated at 21 KV in the CTGs and the STG, stepped - up through main transformers, and fed to the Utility grid via a 220 KV, gas insulated switchgear (GIS) Switchyard . The power plant cooling water is withdrawn from El Ismailia Canal.
