Abstract: A dispatch advisor for operating a power plant having at least one gas turbine with flexibility is described. The dispatch advisor can generate a representation of a flexible base load map for operating the power plant. The representation can include an aggregation of a primary base load operating space and an expanded portion of the base load operating space. The representation offers a range of operating values for operational parameters of the power plant during base load at various base load settings at predetermined ambient conditions and corresponding power output and efficiency values that are attained while operating the power plant at the range of operating values. This offers an operator of the power plant with flexibility in controlling the plant during base load.

Abstract: A dispatch advisor to assist in selecting operating conditions of a power plant that maximizes operational revenue is described. The dispatch advisor obtains a base load map for operating the power plant to meet base load power demands. The base load map includes a primary base load operating space for attaining target plant power output and efficiency, and an expanded base load portion for attaining higher plant power output and less than optimal efficiency. Both the primary base load operating space and the expanded base load portion associate power output and efficiency values of the power plant that result from a subset of operational parameter values for operating the power plant during base load. The dispatch advisor can transform the flexible base load map into one or more visualizations describing the revenue possibilities associated with operating the power plant based on operating values and attained power output and efficiency.
