Net Zero Teesside (NZT) aims to be the world’s 1st commercial power station with carbon capture and storage (CCS). The power plant will use a GE Vernova 9HA.02 gas turbine in a Single-Shaft Combined Cycle format with an SSS Clutch
The planned Enbridge Ridgeline gas pipeline expansion project will feed the new TVA Kingston power plant and will use dual driven Siemens Energy gas compressors with SSS Clutches which will rotate up to 13,000 rpm
An SSS Clutch has been retrofitted into this Siemens Energy Hybrid RGS installation so it can operate as a synchronous condenser and improve system strength without the need to move the gas turbine or the generator.
A 299 MW Open Cycle Gas Turbine plant that incorporates an SSS Clutch allowing it to operate as both a Peaking Power Plant and Synchronous Condenser to support the Energy Transition
Air Products will achieve higher plant efficiency by linking a hydraulic power recovery turbine (HPRT) via an SSS Clutch into their dual driven amine pump system
SSS supplies Pinion Turning Gear Clutches for the world’s largest steam turbines at the EDF Hinkley Point C Nuclear site in the UK.
500 MW of flexible generation capacity added by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) using GE Vernova LM6000 Aeroderivative Gas Turbines with SSS Clutches integrated into the gearbox.
This highly efficient 900 MW Siemens Energy single-shaft CCGT power plant supports decarbonisation by reducing carbon emissions in energy production by 5% in Alberta, Canada.
Joetsu Thermal Power Station Unit 1 is a singleshaft combined cycle unit manufactured by Mitsubishi Power (MHI) with the world’s highest thermal efficiency at 63.62% in 2022.
Our highest power single-shaft CCGT application with 2 x 400 MW clutches at 3000 rpm installed on this 1.76 GW plant in Indonesia supplied by GE Vernova.
The addition of an SSS Clutch helped repurpose this coal fired power plant to a synchronous condenser by adding a clutch to the free end of the generator to support grid stability
The NetApp Bangalore data centre uses 4 Piller Diesel Rotary Uninterrupted Power Supply (DRUPS) systems with a total capacity of 8000 kVA to support their critical application.
SSS Clutches were selected for 3 acceleration packages, because they allowed the synchronous condenser to disconnect from the pony starter motor and have lower friction losses.
The Triple-E class are among the largest container ships in the world and incorporate an SSS Clutch into their Marine Diesel Energy Recovery System to improve fuel efficiency and to lower the carbon footprint of the vessels.
SSS Clutch consulted with Comisión Federal de Electricidad in Mexico to retrofit a clutch into the existing installation to support the need for reactive power.
Pinjar has six Frame 6 gas turbine power plants fitted with SSS Clutches (three new, three retrofits) so they can operate as synchronous condensers to support grid stability in Western Australia
7 heavy duty peaking gas turbines each rated at 176 MW fitted with SSS Clutches to allow synchronous condensing operation, supplied to Eskom the National Utility in South Africa.
140 MW peaking gas turbine plant and synchronous compensator that has been reliably supporting the grid in Cornwall, UK for over 25 years.
170 MW gas turbine that can act as a synchronous condenser after 25 years, proving that SSS Clutches last for the lifetime of the power plant they are fitted to.
This 54 MW TwinPac gas turbine CHP application at Solvay`s Rheinberg chemical plant provided efficient heat and electrical power and could also operate as a synchronous condenser to support local grid stability
Large scale Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) site reliably running since the 1970s using SSS Clutches to store and release energy and provide grid support.
After more that 50 years trouble free operation, this clutch was recently refurbished and returned into service demonstrating how SSS Clutches are “Fit and Forget”.
In 1963 SSS Gears supplied a 66T Encased Clutch to the Bristol Siddeley Patchway site connected to a Proteus aero-engine for peaking power and voltage support. This was our first synchronous condensing application
