Summary

The first gas turbine at EnBW Energie’s hydrogen-ready gas-fired power plant in Stuttgart-Münster is about to enter the “hot commissioning” phase.

During this phase, the gas turbine is gradually operated at increasing power in order to test and adjust them.

The hydrogen-capable gas-fired power plant is currently being built at the Stuttgart-Münster site, which specializes in energy recovery from waste.

The 124MW gas plant will replace the original coal-fired boilers and heating oil-fired turbines at the site, and according to EnBW, this will make district heating generation in the Stuttgart urban area totally coal-free.

The gas plant will be fully operational in 2025 and will be ready for a hydrogen fuel switch to further decarbonise in the future.
