Our Flexicycle™ power plants combine the advantages of a flexible simple cycle plant with the superb efficiency of a combined cycle plant. This solution provides the flexibility needed to facilitate the integration of renewable energy. As the share of intermittent renewable energy increases in the power market, fast load-following power is needed to maintain system reliability. The Flexicycle solution is based on a gas, multi-fuel, or liquid fuel power plant combined with a steam turbine.
The Flexicycle power plant, supported with lifecycle services is both agile and highly efficient, which enables competitive performance on both the energy and capacity markets. The combination of flexibility and efficiency makes Flexicycle power plants ideally suited to load following in a grid system. Depending on the power system, Flexicycle power plants can also be the best choice for efficient baseload power generation. It is a perfect solution for both municipal power generation and for the larger utility market.
Our largest Flexicycle installation is the Quisqueya I and II power plant complex in the Dominican Republic with a total combined output of 430 MW.
