Advanced Power and GE Power have announced that South Field Energy, a 1,182 MW natural gas power plant to be built in Columbiana County, Ohio, USA, will be powered by two of GE’s industry leading 7HA.02 gas turbines.

GE’s HA gas turbines, the company’s most powerful, efficient, and flexible offering for the 50 and 60 hertz segments, will help South Field Energy produce the equivalent electricity needed to power approximately one million homes once the plant is complete in 2021.

South Field Energy will also utilize GE steam turbine and heat recovery technologies. Advanced Power and GE have also concluded a contractual service agreement (CSA) whereby GE will service the equipment that it is providing. Construction and operations of the facility will be managed by an affiliate of Advanced Power, South Field Asset Management Services, LLC.

South Field Energy is Advanced Power’s third major power project in the United States and—working with engineering, procurement, and construction partner Bechtel —will create 1,000 construction jobs during its peak period. Construction of the power plant is slated to begin in Q3 2018 and is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2021.
