  4. Power plant engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_plant_engineering

    Power plant engineering, abbreviated as TPTL, is a branch of the field of energy engineering, and is defined as the engineering and technology required for the production of an electric power station. [1] Technique is focused on power generation for industry and community, not just for household electricity production.

  5. Thermal power station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_power_station

    The majority of the world's thermal power stations are driven by steam turbines, gas turbines, or a combination of the two. The efficiency of a thermal power station is determined by how effectively it converts heat energy into electrical energy, specifically the ratio of saleable electricity to the heating value of the fuel used.

  7. Power system protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_protection

    Power system protection is a branch of electrical power engineering that deals with the protection of electrical power systems from faults [citation needed] through the disconnection of faulted parts from the rest of the electrical network. The objective of a protection scheme is to keep the power system stable by isolating only the components ...

  8. Energy efficient transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_efficient_transformer

    Energy efficient transformers are therefore an important means to reduce transmission and distribution loss. [1] With the improvement of electrical steel (silicon steel) properties, the losses of a transformer in 2010 can be half that of a similar transformer in the 1970s.

  9. Energy and environmental engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_and_environmental...

    The Energy and Environmental Engineering field seeks to conserve and maintain the natural environment by using efficient sources of energy. [1] Energy and environmental engineers are continually searching for solutions to emerging, environment-related issues such as erosion, water disposal, air and water pollution, land resources, human health, and environmental restoration.
