Combined cycle - Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) 1 An integrated gasification combined cycle, or IGCC, is a power plant using synthesis gas (syngas). Syngas can be produced from a number of sources, including coal and biomass. The system utilizes gas and steam turbines, the steam turbine operating off of the heat leftover from the gas turbine. This process can raise electricity generation efficiency to around 50%.
