Performance Analysis and Evaluation of Muhoroni 60MW Gas Turbine Power Plant
This study was a performance analysis with the aim of improving the performance of an operating gas turbine at Muhoroni, Kenya. Data was collected by observation, questionnaire, interview, and document analysis and used for performance analysis and review. The analysis of the power plant performance indicators showed that plant utilization is low with low load factor and hence low generation from the power plant because of high costs of generation and hence low demand which is limited to peak power supply. The powerplant has two operating gas turbines with recoverable exhaust heat energy of 119.4 MWthermal. The study recommends installation of a 20 MW Rankine cycle steam turbine with exhaust heat boiler for generation of steam. Recovery and applications for the hot cooling air are recommended is also recommended.
