Natural Gas Powered Commercial Electrical Generation from GE

GE s Jenbacher this morning announced the development of an allnew, larger, powergeneration gasoline engine powered MGSet, the J920. With an ielectrical efficiency, b of 48. 7 percent as measured at the MGSet s output terminals and a total output of 9. 51 megawatts (MW) at 50Hz, the new J920 engine is the most efficient in its class and it extends GE s technical leadership in power generation gas engines. The J920 gas engine provides enough energy for 18, 500 average European households. It was introduced at a ceremony held today at GE s facility in Jenbach, Austria. The new, powerdense engine is highly attractive from both a customer and environmental perspective as its higher efficiency not only reduces lifecycle costs due to lower fuel consumption, but also simultaneously cuts greenhouse gas emissions. In comparison with commercially available gas engines in the same output range, the operation of one J920 can prevent about 1, 500 Tons of CO2 emissions annually. This c br, br,
