.
Protecting citizens from the threat of pollution and global climate change through major efficiency and environmental performance gains; and
.
Ensuring that the nation’s electricity supply system remains affordable, robust, and reliable through lowering life-cycle costs and advancing reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) technology.
There are three elements in the NGT Program:
.
Systems Development and Integration includes the government-industry partnerships needed to develop low-cost, fuel and duty flexible gas turbines and hybrid systems that are responsive to the energy and environmental demands of the 21st century.
.
RAM Improvements provide the instrumentation, analytical modeling, and evaluation techniques necessary to predict impending problems and establish maintenance requirements based on gas turbine operational characteristics.
.
Crosscutting Research and Development provides the underlying science in combustion, materi-als, and diagnostics needed to support new technology development.
Benefits will include:
.
Conservation of natural resources (water and land);
.
Reduced air emissions (CO2, NOx, SOx);
.
Lower primary energy consumption (oil, coal, or natural gas depending on the region);
.
Lower cost-of-electricity;
.
Improved system reliability;
.
Improved competitiveness in the world market; and
.
Job creation.
