Auto combustion tuning system for 9F in Spain

EthosEnergy has been awarded a contract by Bizkaia Energia for the installation of its ECOMAX control technology on two GE Frame 9 gas turbine.

The contract is for full installation and commissioning of the ECOMAX auto-tuning technology on the Frame 9 turbines located at the Amorebieta combined cycle gas plant in Bilbao, Spain. This will be the first time EthosEnergy has worked with Bizkaia Energia.

ECOMAX is a stand-alone, real-time automatic combustion optimization system which actively manages the complex dynamics of thermal performance. ECOMAX delivers a fully automated solution that eliminates the need for manual tuning, optimizing the gas turbine combustor systems in near real-time while controlling emissions and managing dynamics within the framework of operator-set parameters.
