Specific topics to be addressed include:

• System selection and sizing criteria
• Structural design and dynamic loads
• Electrical interconnects
• Equipment applications, including HRSGs, balance of plant and emissions controls
• Site environmental factors
• Load control EPA permitting
• Fuel Supply Control systems
