GE has won an order from RWE Generation for 11 units of its LM2500XPRESS power plant technology to build a gas-fired reserve plant in Biblis, a municipality in the Southern Hesse region of Germany. The new 300 MW plant will be built just south of RWE’s current nuclear power plant site in the region. The plant will not be available to the open electricity marketplace, but will instead only be operated on the request of system operators to help ensure grid stability.

The gas turbine power plant will be constructed next to the existing Biblis nuclear power plant and is expected to come into operation in late 2022.
The plant will comprise 11 GE LM2500 gas turbines, generators, fuel supply system, grid connection, and auxiliary equipment. It is 95 per cent factory assembled into simplified modules for fast and easy site installation.
