This technique was employed as far back as 1950 when the first attempts to commercialize jet transport required the extra thrust from water injected jet engines. Naturally, the plane couldn't just carry gallons of water to throw into the "fire" as it flew to its destination. The system was employed on take off only.
It's a good technology, but I wonder if the few turbine based electricity generators available for its employment make this a significant contributor to the energy solution. Also, the statistics I see on natural gas markets indicate to me that even if this increased efficiency by 90 percent, it may not even be enough to hold the line.
