About
Join our experts and explore the evolving energy landscape in North America and the critical role of operational flexibility in maximizing power plant operational performance. With the steady growth of renewables, shifting governmental regulations and volatile fuel prices, combined cycle power plants (CCPPs) may have to transition from base load to cyclical operation modes.

This shift necessitates enhanced startup and shutdown processes, improved load ramp gradients, and advanced operational strategies to maintain grid reliability and capture high-margin opportunities. We'll delve into the benefits of fast and flexible operational concepts, and innovative solutions like Flex-Power Services™ and Omnivise Performance.
Learn how these strategies can help power producers optimize plant operational performance, reduce costs, and navigate the challenges of the energy transition.
Don’t miss this opportunity to equip yourself with the knowledge to enhance your plant’s operational flexibility and profitability.
