A gas turbine power system for generating energy by means of a gas turbine cycle, wherein heat energy is more effectively used by burning the exhaust gases (109) and the partial oxidation of said exhaust gases (109) is achieved by means of a hypostoichiometric amount of air and steam fed into a catalytic reactor (107) to form a first oxidation stage followed downstream in said turbine (103) by additional oxidation occurring in a power turbine (104) or downstream therefrom, said power turbine being in turn arranged downstream from the catalytic reactor (107). Catalytic partial oxidation may be performed using a supply of an initiating agent, particularly hydrogen. The method is remarkable in that the hydrogen fed into the reactor inlet through an injector (113) is provided by recycling part of the effluent from the reactor, the power turbine or a reforming reactor for reforming part of the fuel gas with a large excess amount of steam for performing catalytic partial oxidation.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method of generating power energy, comprising the steps of:(i) introducing a first combustible gas into a catalytic reactor;(ii) submitting said first gas in said catalytic reactor to a partial oxidation reaction by an oxygen-containing gas in the presence of steam injected upstream of said catalytic reactor and of a predetermined quantity of hydrogen acting as an initiating agent, for producing a second combustible gas at a controlled high temperature; and(iii) using said second combustible gas from said catalytic reactor for driving a power turbine to generate power energy.
