Centrica is repurposing its former combined cycle gas power station in Brigg, UK, by installing four ultra-efficient engines in the decommissioned turbine hall. These engines will create nearly 100MW of fast response assets to address electricity demand fluctuations when renewable generation is insufficient. The plant's expansion at the Lincolnshire site is designed to be hydrogen-ready, with plans to blend hydrogen into the gas mix starting from a 3% blend up to 20%, ultimately aiming for 100% hydrogen usage and replicating the technology across other peaking plants. The project, expected to be completed by early 2025, underscores the importance of peaking plants in ensuring grid stability and reliable power supply during high-demand periods or low renewable energy output. Furthermore, the Brigg energy park redevelopment will include a 50MW battery, HiiROC technology for hydrogen production, and a significant gas peaking plant, demonstrating Centrica's commitment to balancing the increasing renewables on the grid. The positive sentiment towards renewable energy integration is highlighted by comments from Chris O'Shea, Centrica's group chief executive, and Kenneth Engblom, vice president at Wärtsilä Energy, emphasizing the shift towards clean energy and the future-proof nature of the engines to run on hydrogen blends.
