Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods for generating a predictable load upon a completion of a start sequence of a gas turbine are provided. According to one embodiment, a system may include a controller to control the gas turbine and a processor communicatively coupled to the controller. The processor may be configured to receive a start duration and a desired final load, and to calculate a target load rate to substantially reach the desired final load within the start duration based on the start duration and the desired final load. Measurements of a present load may be periodically received from a measuring device and used to periodically recalculate the target load rate. A present load rate may be periodically adjusted by the controller based on the recalculation.
