Gas turbine
From Electrical Age
Gas turbine takes power and converts it into mechanical power. You need to use Generator to convert mechanical power into electric power Are you looking for a tutorial on simple gas turbine control?

Burnable gases
True to their real life counterparts, Gas Turbines can burn pretty much any combustible fluid. Here are a list of fuels which will only burn in the Gas Turbine.
