Combined cycle

Combined cycle power plants

In combined cycle power plants (CCP), we generate energy through the direct combustion of natural gas and the reuse of waste gases to produce new energy. These power plants achieve an efficiency of 55%, while conventional thermal power plants do not exceed 30%.
