Customers depend on reliable power, but unexpected outages still occasionally happen. Learn how black start capabilities get you back online faster, minimizing losses and enhancing the resiliency of the electrical system.
A key component of plans for efficient power system restoration is the use of large combustion turbines connected directly to higher-voltage transmission systems. Download our white paper to explore considerations for adding black start capabilities at existing facilities.
Today’s black start units are not fundamentally different from the vintage units they are replacing. What distinguishes today’s solutions is the size of the turbines they are expected to restart and the voltage of the systems to which they connect.
Adding black start capabilities to a power generating station is not a typical retrofit. It means adding a new way of doing something to the method the station has relied upon since its original construction. It’s tricky, but there are ways to keep downtime to a minimum.
