| Abstract | The origin of Mitsubishi’s geothermal steam turbine technology dates back to 1951 with one small 30kW unit. 16 years later, in 1967, our first commercial geothermal steam turbine commenced operation at the Otake Geothermal Power Plant of Kyusyu Electric Power Co., Inc. Since the beginning of the 1960s, we have conducted many testing at geothermal fields and laboratory in our Nagasaki R & C center and developed many kinds of equipment or system for higher performance and reliability of geothermal turbine or power plant. In this paper, those technologies supporting high performance and reliability of our supplied geothermal power plant and steam turbine are introduced. |
