Thermal Power Plant

Thermal Power Plants – Rankine cycle based steam power plants are the major source of power generation. In a thermal power plant, the chemical energy stored in fossil fuels such as coal, fuel oil, natural gas is converted successively into thermal energy, mechanical energy and finally electrical energy for continuous use and distribution across a wide geographic area. In the Rankine cycle, high pressure and high temperature steam raised in a boiler is expanded through a steam turbine that drives an electric generator. Thermal Power plants have very high availability and can operate for more than a year between shutdowns for maintenance and inspections. Their unplanned or forced outage rates are very low. Thermal Power Plant assets need to be flexible to meet rapidly fluctuating demand levels. As well, they need to remain reliable and demonstrate that every effort has been made to minimize environmental impacts and maximize efficiency. Ensuring flexible, reliable operation with minimum forced outages, implementing innovative strategies that reduce emissions and dealing with volatile power markets while achieving the lowest operating costs possible are the new industry reality.
