In a groundbreaking development for cleaner energy production, Georgia Power and Mitsubishi Power have successfully completed testing a 50% hydrogen-natural gas blend in an advanced class gas turbine at Plant McDonough-Atkinson in Atlanta, Georgia. This achievement is a result of a collaborative effort between the two companies and represents a significant milestone in the pursuit of sustainable energy solutions. The testing, conducted over several weeks, showcased a remarkable 22% reduction in CO2 emissions when compared to using 100% natural gas. The success of this project was made possible by the conversion of the existing gas turbine to incorporate advanced combustion technology that supports high hydrogen co-firing capability. Georgia Power's commitment to innovation and sustainable energy solutions is evident through its continuous efforts in cleaner natural gas technologies. The company has already achieved a 60% reduction in carbon emissions since 2007. Mitsubishi Power played a crucial role in providing a full turnkey service for the project, including engineering, planning, hydrogen blending hardware, controls, commissioning, and risk management. The partnership with Certarus for hydrogen supply and logistics further streamlined the testing process. As Georgia Power continues to prioritize natural gas in its energy strategy, with it currently representing 40% of annual energy generation, the successful testing of hydrogen-natural gas blends opens up new possibilities for cleaner energy production. Through collaborations, innovative research, and ongoing commitment to reducing carbon emissions, Georgia Power and Mitsubishi Power are leading the way towards a more sustainable energy future.
