GE’s Power Services has launched its new Fleet360 platform to service both GE and cross-fleet power generation equipment for utility and industrial plant operators worldwide. This launch comes one years after GE’s acquisition of Alstom’s power generation and services assets.

Fleet360 applies to all services, upgrades, repairs, parts, multiyear agreements, operations and maintenance for assets supplied by GE and other OEMs.

The Fleet360 portfolio was built on the integration of GE and Alstom’s expertise over the past year. Representing the first integration of GE and Alstom Power’s steam turbine technologies, GE introduced its new Enhanced Steam Path (ESP) upgrade solution for D-10 and D-11 steam turbines operating in Europe and other 50 Hz regions following the ESP introduction in 60 Hz countries. ESP was introduced to help utilities and industrial operators boost the efficiency and output of their existing combined cycle power plants.

Paul McElhinney, President and CEO of GE’s Power Services, said: “Fleet360 represents GE’s expanded capabilities as a total solutions provider for all power generation equipment, regardless of who was the original manufacturer. Over the past year, Power Services has worked to fully integrate Alstom’s expertise within GE’s portfolio, allowing us to provide customised solutions for operators that deliver better performance and value for their entire fleets. These service capabilities will prove vital now and in the coming years. While the world will experience fluctuating demands for energy in various regions, over the long term, the demand for power is expected to rise by 50 per cent over the next 20 to 25 years, placing a greater priority on utilities to keep their existing generation assets operating at optimal performance levels.”
