Access to reliable and affordable power is the key to an improved standard of living for everyone. However, it is essential that this power be produced without negative environmental side effects. Alstom’s Plant Integrator™ solutions maximise performance, while our extensive range of environmental products enable us to supply the cleanest power plants in the industry. Alstom’s Clean Power Today® strategy recognises the need to improve the environmental balance of legacy plants, while increasing the adoption of new clean energy solutions.

Clean Power Today!® As one of the most reliable of the renewable energy resources, geothermal power plays a key role in Alstom’s clean power offering. Irrespective of weather conditions, a geothermal plant will provide a steady output and respond easily to changes in demand. Alstom pioneered the commercial exploitation of geothermal power in New Zealand in the 1950s. Today, we offer geothermal solutions worldwide, based on our global footprint and technological lead. Plant IntegratorTM Improving the efficiency of a power plant depends on fine tuning complex interactions between diverse...

Alstom offers a complete portfolio of power generation equipment and services for all fuel types. By 2030 the world will have seen a significant change in the power generation mix with an increased share of renewable power. Alstom has a strong role to play in the booming geothermal power market.

Power plant development Turbine and component supply Geothermal energy is available adjacent to porous and fractured hot rock along the earth’s tectonic plate fault lines. Once a suitable site is located, Alstom can help you analyse the geothermal resource and design a suitably optimised plant configuration adapted to the local climate, geology and terrain. Our goal is to increase your project realisation chances while lowering your development risk. Geothermal turbines must withstand corrosive impurities, wet steam and seismic conditions. Building on Alstom’s extensive experience in...

 turnkey solutions Optimising the value chain Power plant construction As the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) provider, Alstom has commissioned more than 360 conventional steam power plants during the last 30 years. Drawing on this expertise, Alstom now provides full EPC services for geothermal power plants. Having supplied major components to more than 1170GW of power generation around the world, Alstom is not just a leading global original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and an EPC provider. In addition, we are also responsible for the operation and maintenance (O&M) of a...

Protecting performance Proven and validated technology The geothermal products and services offered by Alstom incorporate the latest know-how and technology focussed on the particular challenges of the geothermal industry. Alstom turbines offer the ideal combination of performance and durability. In geothermal, we use robust direct drive turbines to cope with the demands of wet steam with dissolved impurities. By working with optimised blade forms, fewer stages and broader clearances, our turbines cope reliably with even the most challenging steam compositions. Flexible configurations:...

by robust and proven designs EPC and service offerings Our flexible plant offering can be fully adapted to your needs. Because there is no reliability without assured steam quality, Alstom insists on a minimum scope of the steam enhancement and power island systems. However, by ordering a complete turnkey power plant, Alstom can take care of every aspect of design, engineering, procurement and construction. Owners, especially independent power producers, can also benefit from the addition of an Alstom extended service contract to cover the day-to-day running and maintenance of the plant. As...

A partnership for performance When you choose Alstom as your OEM, EPC or O&M provider you are buying into a wealth of steam-turbine know-how and experience. In addition, as a full-service provider, we offer contracts, tailored to meet all your operational, maintenance and support requirements for geothermal power plants. Alstom’s O&M contracts are a transparent set of answers to the business critical questions that every power plant owner faces. We focus on speed in response, flexibility, lead times in project execution and tailored solutions that suit best to requirements of geothermal...
