Power plant efficiency
Wärtsilä engine-based power plants offer the highest single cycle efficiencies of current technologies, 50% or more, with outstanding flexibility using a broad range of fuels. Total plant efficiency can further be improved and optimised by adding hybrid solutions, FlexicycleTM solutions (steam combined cycles), combined heat and power (CHP), trigeneration (power, heat and cooling), and also through Wärtsilä lifecycle solutions, which ensure that the power plant operates in the most energy-efficient way and in accordance with regulations. Wärtsilä also offers tools for the smart integration of energy production and storage at the system level.
