Iraqs Ministry of Electricity and GE Vernova have completed upgrades at multiple power plants, enhancing Iraqs electricity infrastructure. The project covers 46 gas turbines across 12 sites, expected to add up to 500 MW to the national grid by summer 2025. Several plants, including Ninawa, Al-Diwaniyah, Hilla, and Karbala, have transitioned from heavy fuel oil to natural gas, increasing capacity by 260 MW. Additional modernisations will add a further 250 MW. Advanced Gas Path (AGP) and MXLII upgrades at Al-Quds, Dhiqar, and Al Mansouriya plants will improve efficiency by up to 6%. Under a 2024 services agreement, GE Vernova has also completed maintenance projects covering 3.7 GW at sites such as Qayyarah and Baghdad South to improve long-term reliability. |
