The primary focus of our gas turbine Siemens simple cycle (SSC^®) reference power plant (RPP) program is to develop plant designs offering significant customer benefits through low life-cycle costs. The modular concept used in the RPP program allows easy adaptation to specific customer needs and site requirements. In its base configuration the RPP includes the most frequently demanded standard configuration. This provides a valuable, predefined wrap of core, options and variants to provide high benefits for general application.
