Detailed Description

The LM2500 Gas Turbine is a high-efficiency power unit designed for use in industrial, marine, and utility applications. It’s commonly used for grid support, combined heat and power, and in mobile or remote power installations.

The turbine uses a single-rotor gas generator that can be connected to a power turbine. Inside, it includes a 16-stage compressor, an annular combustor, and a two-stage high-pressure turbine—to deliver strong performance in demanding environments.

Built for flexibility, the LM2500 is well-suited for operations that require frequent start-and-stop cycles. It can ramp up from a cold shutdown to full power in under five minutes, making it a reliable option for fast, on-demand power delivery.

Adding to its versatility, the LM2500 supports a wide range of fuels—including natural gas, diesel, aviation fuel, naphtha, LPG, ethane, ethanol, biodiesel, and more. This fuel flexibility makes it easy to integrate into different operating environments.

Its proven adaptability and performance have made the LM2500 the most widely used gas turbine in the 25–37 megawatt range.

In addition to high efficiency and reliability, the LM2500 delivers low emissions—even in challenging environments or when water availability is limited. With control system redundancy and several configuration options, it offers a customizable solution for dependable, efficient power generation.
