Twelve GE 5371PA Gas Turbines Achieve 48 MW Boost Hallet, AUS

A large power station in Hallett, Australia was looking to boost their output. They purchased MeeFog systems to provide fog evaporative cooling and wet compression for twelve GE 5371PA gas turbines. Each skid has four pumps providing sixteen stages of fogging. Each Meefog™ system produces a 4 MW power boost, resulting in a 48 MW total power boost for all twelve units.
