A combined cycle power plant is an assembly of heat engines that work in tandem from the same source of heat, converting it into mechanical energy. On land, when used to make electricity the most common type is called a combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) plant, which is a kind of gas-fired power plant.

Air-based CCGT systems have demonstrated very high availability and reliability. [6] The most notable helium-based system thus far was Oberhausen 2, a 50 megawatt cogeneration plant that operated from 1975 to 1987 in Germany. [7] Compared to Europe where the technology was originally developed, CCGT is not well known in the US. [8]
CCGT may refer to: Combined cycle gas turbine, a type of combined cycle power plant commonly used for high efficiency, fast responding electricity generators Closed-cycle gas turbine (but combined cycle, see above, is the more common usage for gas turbines)
Site of the former BP Baglan Bay plant. The power station was built on the site of the former Isopropanol BP chemicals plant in September 2003, costing £300 million. At the time of its development, it was considered the most advanced CCGT facility of its kind with close to 60% efficiency.
The power station consists of three identical units with an electrical power output of 1,212.6 MW. Each of these units is including a 65 metres (213 ft) high flue gas stack. It was built and equipped by Siemens. Each of the units has an efficiency of 57%. The power station is connected via a 380 kV double-circuit powerline with Gauss substation.
Marchwood Power Station is next to Southampton Water on Marchwood Industrial Estate. [1] It is a combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power station. [1] The plant uses compressed air and gas to power one turbine and then uses exhaust gases from that process to boil water and power a steam turbine. [2] The power station generates 898.1MW of ...
Gateway Generating Station, a combined-cycle gas-fired power station in California. CCGT power plants consist of simple cycle gas-turbines which use the Brayton cycle, followed by a heat recovery steam generator and a steam turbine which use the Rankine cycle. The most common configuration is two gas-turbines supporting one steam turbine. [9]
