The General Electric LM6000 aeroderivative industrial gas turbine can produce over 47 MW of electricity, and is used in both base-load and peaking power generation applications. The LM6000 is widely used in cogeneration applications, and can be fitted in a dry-low emissions configuration to allow for lower emissions and greater efficiency.
