Our steam turbine blade refurbishment process
As an alternative to purchasing new steam turbine blades which comes with a high price and lead time, EthosEnergy offers a refurbishment of used blades that is cost-effective, has a reduced lead time, and restores the blade to its original aerodynamic profile.
Our enhanced steam turbine blade repair solutions significantly reduce erosion damage and can extend the periods between your outages. They are also much faster and cheaper – typically 50–60% less costly – than replacement blades.
Compared with manufacturing new blades, our specialist repairs are a sustainable method for reducing your carbon footprint and extending the life of your asset.

Specialist weld repair of a D11 L-0 turbine blade
When carrying out a major outage for a municipal combined-cycle power plant, our steam turbine application engineer detected a small crack on the L-0 blade tip of the LP rotor.
One of our specialist welders carried out an in-situ weld repair. As a result, we helped our client:
- Slash capital expenditure
- Keep a major outage on schedule
- Avoid a production loss costing millions of dollars
