EIA: natural gas-fired reciprocating engines are being deployed more to balance renewables

Green Car Congress

Before 2010, reciprocating engines typically had no more than 9 MW in capacity, but in recent years, larger units that range from 16 MW to 19 MW have been installed throughout the United States. Several of these engines are typically installed at one generation facility. MW capacity each that can achieve full output in five minutes.
