Enhancing CCPP Performance

The “Enhancing CCPP (Combined Cycle Power Plant) Performance” training program, developed by Global Horizon Training Center, is tailored to empower professionals in the energy sector with the essential skills and knowledge to optimize the performance of Combined Cycle Power Plants. By focusing on key concepts like Brayton and Rankine cycles, psychrometrics, and heat rate efficiency, this course bridges theoretical foundations with practical applications to maximize plant efficiency and reliability. Participants will gain actionable insights to tackle modern power generation challenges, making them indispensable assets to their organizations.

By the end of this program, participants will be able to:

• Understand and describe the Brayton and Rankine cycles, including performance parameters.
• Use tools like the Psychrometric Chart and Mollier Diagram for performance analysis.
• Analyze GT (Gas Turbine) and HRSG (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) efficiency, including heat rate calculations.
• Apply vendor correction curves to assess and enhance equipment performance.
• Optimize combined cycle plant operations through improved start-up, operation, and shutdown processes.
• Implement strategies to minimize operator-controllable losses and maximize plant output.

This course is ideal for:

• Power plant engineers and operators.
• Maintenance and reliability professionals.
• Plant supervisors and managers.
• Performance analysts and energy consultants.
• Any technical staff involved in CCPP operations and maintenance.
