Engineering the Transition to Lower Emissions

PSM delivers flexible, proven solutions that help power producers decarbonize operations without replacing their gas turbines. Our clean energy technologies—including hydrogen-fueled retrofits and refinery off-gas (ROG) integration—offer power plants a practical path to reduce emissions while improving operational flexibility and asset life.

Solving the energy trilemma

The energy trilemma refers to the challenge of balancing three aspects of energy systems:
• Environmental sustainability
• Energy affordability
• Energy reliability

PSM addresses this challenge by helping customers meet their carbon reduction goals through innovative gas turbine upgrades, combustion system retrofits, and digital optimization—all designed to lower emissions, maintain performance, and reduce lifecycle costs.

Clean Hydrogen: Powering a Low-Carbon Future
_{Benefits of Converting to Hydrogen-Compatible Turbines:}

• Lower carbon footprint: Hydrogen is a clean-burning fuel that produces zero carbon emissions when combusted. By retrofitting gas turbines to run on hydrogen, power plants can significantly reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to ongoing efforts to combat climate change.
• Fuel flexibility: Your turbine will be able to run on 100% methane gas to 100% hydrogen.
• Efficiency gains: Hydrogen has a higher energy content per unit volume than natural gas. With PSM power retrofits, plants running can achieve higher power output and improved efficiency.
• Reduced maintenance: Upgrades designed for durability and uptime
• Asset Optimization: By upgrading your existing turbine for enhanced operational and clean fuel flexibility, equipment can be profitably repurposed and future-proofed for decades to come.
• Energy independence: Hydrogen can be produced locally from diverse sources
• Grid stability: Clean firming and peak support during high demand

How PSM Converts Gas Turbines for Natural Gas And/or Hydrogen use

• Assess turbine compatibility: The first step is to determine whether the gas turbine is compatible with hydrogen. This involves analyzing the turbine's design, materials and operating parameters to ensure safe operation with hydrogen fuel.
• Modify the fuel system: The next step is to modify the existing fuel system to accommodate hydrogen. This involves either modifying or replacing the natural gas with a fuel flexible supply system. This encompasses installing a blending and delivery system.
• Upgrade the combustion system: Retrofit/Install a PSM Flamesheet™ or LEC III™ combustion system.
• Test and commission: Systematically test the upgraded turbine to ensure safety, efficiency, and performance improvements, including emission reductions.

PSM's team of specialized engineers and technicians guides customers through the conversion process. A comprehensive assessment of the plant and decarbonization goals determines the scope of the conversion.
