The 9E is GE Vernova's 50 hertz heavy-duty gas turbine for power plants and industry, formerly known as the Frame 9E. It is sold today in two versions: the 9E.03, rated at 132 MW net with about 34 percent simple-cycle efficiency, and the 9E.04, rated at 147 MW and about 37 percent, which fits a four-stage turbine module and a 17-stage compressor into the footprint of an installed 9E. The maker quotes combined-cycle efficiency above 55 percent and Dry Low NOx combustion at 5 ppm. Its main selling point is fuel range: more than 50 types, including natural gas, distillate and heavy oils, naphtha, crude, syngas and steel mill gases, and it can change fuel while running under full load. Uses range from the 300 MW West Africa Energy plant in Senegal to a Wuhan steel mill that burns blast furnace gas in two 9E units. GE Vernova counts more than 730 E-class gas turbines deployed worldwide, and a hot gas path upgrade first fitted to the 9E.03 fleet is now being followed by a newer one.
