GE Vernova and YTL PowerSeraya are to collaborate in a feasibility study to analyse the reducing of carbon emissions from the YTLPS H-class combined cycle gas turbine plant on Jurong Island, Singapore.
Following the launch of a ‘Power Sector Carbon Capture and Storage Grant Call’ by Singapore’s Energy Market Authority in October 2024, which invited the power industry to explore potential carbon capture solutions as part of Singapore’s energy transition towards a low-carbon future, the EMA selected five projects on 14 July 2025. Among these, YTLPS’ Post-Combustion Carbon Capture Study proposal was successfully selected to receive co-funding.
The study is focused on retrofitting YTLPS’ H-Class CCGT with technology capable of capturing at least 90 % of the plant’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. GE Vernova will focus the Study on the seamless integration of the H-Class CCGT plant with post-combustion carbon capture technology, supported by three key technical solutions, namely exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), steam integration, and controls integration
In comparison with traditional bolt-on post-combustion carbon capture solutions, the proposed GE advanced system integration with EGR technology allows a gas power plant with post-combustion carbon capture solutions to operate more efficiently and cost-effectively which reduces overall plant size, overall CAPEX and OPEX whilst also boosting overall integrated plant performance. Jurong Island, Singapore. The Jurong Island plant is expected to be powered by a 9HA.01 gas turbine, an STF-A650 steam turbine, a W88 generator, and a triple pressure with reheat Heat Recovery Steam Generator.
The announcement of the study was made on the sidelines of the Singapore International Energy Week, 27-31 October. It follows other significant announcements for GE Vernova, including its selection for the innovative Net Zero Teesside NZT Power Project, expected to be the world’s first gas-fired plant integrated with a carbon capture plant at commercial scale.
