Abstract
The method for operating a power plant including a gas turbine and a steam power generation system that activate, or drive, at least one electric generator, wherein the gas turbine produces flue gases that are supplied into a boiler of the steam power generation system. In a steady operation, the gas turbine generates a first output power greater than zero, the steam turbine generates a second output power greater than zero, and a total generated power is a sum of the first and second output powers and is substantially equal to a house load of the power plant.
