The report on the turbine inlet cooling systems market primarily focuses on inlet fogging and wet
compression technologies. Low operating and maintenance cost along with significant increase in plant
efficiency has driven the demand for these systems. Of the two technologies, inlet fogging is more
common and is utilized in a large number of gas turbines worldwide. Companies such as Mee Industries
Inc., Caldwell Energy and others have pioneered the inlet cooling technology and provide complete inlet
cooling packages to augment plant output. Increasing incidents of power shortages due to the drop in
turbine efficiencies, especially during the summer season, compel power companies to install turbine inlet
cooling systems. The number of inlet fogging systems are further expected to grow on account of
increasing adoption of gas-fired power plants globally in the near future. As the number of gas-fired power
plants increases, the demand for gas turbine and hence the gas turbine inlet cooling systems would
increase. The installation of turbine inlet cooling systems assists the plat owners/operators to augment
plant output.
Inlet fogging is one of the most widely used methods of turbine inlet cooling. Inlet fogging systems are
easy to install and low cost as compared to other turbine inlet cooling technologies. Decrease in the output
of gas turbines, especially during the summer seasons, has made power companies to retrofit their
turbines with inlet fogging systems. Utilization of fogging systems increases the turbine output by nearly
10%, making it one of the most effective turbine inlet cooling technologies. Currently, turbine inlet fogging
systems are installed in hundreds of gas turbines all over the world. Mee Industries, Inc. is one of the major
provider of turbine inlet fogging systems and supplies its inlet cooling solutions globally.
Similar to inlet fogging, wet compression is also an evaporative cooling technology. Wet compression is a
complementary technology utilized to provide added benefits to the existing evaporative cooling
technologies. In wet compression more fog is added. The air containing the excess of fog enters the
compressor in the combustion turbine, where droplets are evaporated which leads to cooling of air and
increase in air mass. However, it is a relatively newer technology and is costlier than inlet fogging.
Key participants in the global turbine inlet cooling systems market include American Moistening Company
Inc., Caldwell Energy Company Inc., Cat Pumps Inc., Humifrio S.L., Mee Industries Inc., Score Energy
Limited, Siemens AG, UTC Technologies Company, Camfil AB, and Baltec IES Pty. Ltd. This report provides
