Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of technical and economic aspects of the development of power generation systems based on highly efficient high-power gas turbine technologies. Using cluster analysis tools, technological classes of existing high-power gas turbine equipment are identified and a methodology for selecting a promising level of gas turbine technology is developed, which allows justifying the choice of power plants to meet the energy system's need for electric power. The developed methodology provides a quantitative assessment of the economic efficiency of the identified technological classes of gas turbine plants, taking into account the observed and forecasted levels of fuel prices and the need of thermal power plants for electric power. Its application allows selecting the most promising gas turbine unit for scaling within the energy system, depending on the expected parameters of the external environment, determined by the market conditions of the functioning of the country's electric power sector and the adopted policy in the field of energy security.
