A method for electric power production or cogeneration of electrical power and process heat and/or steam that integrates a solid carbonaceous fuel gasification system and gas turbine system. Fuel gas produced in the gasification system is combusted and the combustion gases used in the gas turbine system. The gas turbine system uses water spray intercooling of the compressor or compressors, with air-water mixture from the compressor used in the gasification system, while hot exhaust gas from the turbine system has heat recuperated therefrom and is used to produce steam, which is also used in the gasification system.

A process for generation of electrical energy and steam using an integrated solid carbonaceous fuel gasification system to produce a fuel gas and a gas turbine system that uses said fuel gas for electrical power and steam production characterized in that said process comprises: gasifying a solid carbonaceous fuel in a gasifier system using steam and an air-water mixture to produce a fuel gas; removing particulate material from the fuel gas; combusting a portion of said fuel gas in a high pressure combustion unit, to produce high pressure hot combustion gases; depressurizing the remainder of said fuel gas and combusting the same in a low pressure combustion unit to produce low pressure hot combustion gases; using the hot combustion gases in a gas turbine system containing at least one compression unit, and a high pressure expansion unit and low pressure expansion unit, with the high pressure hot combustion gases directed to the high pressure expansion unit and the low pressure hot combustion gases directed to the low pressure expansion unit, to operate a generator for electrical power production, with discharge of hot exhaust gases therefrom; effecting water spray intercooling of the compression unit of the gas turbine system with production therein of an air-water mixture; passing at least a portion of said air-water mixture to said gasifier system as the air-water mixture used therein; passing said hot exhaust gas from the gas turbine system to a steam generation system to produce steam therein; passing a portion of the steam, produced in the steam generation system from said hot exhaust gas, to said gasifier system as the steam used therein; and passing a further portion of said steam, produced in the steam generation system from said hot exhaust gas, to the low pressure expansion unit of the gas turbine system for cooling thereof.
