The generated steam is let in a single steam turbine generator (STG) of 235 MW maximum. Resulting peak output is 635 MW gross. Under baseload operation, the output is 184 MW gross from each gas-turbine and 198 MW gross for the steam-turbine, adding to 567 MW gross of which 14 MW consumed by the auxiliary equipment, yielding a 553 MW net output.
Mohave Generating Station, a 1,580 MW steam–electric power plant near Laughlin, Nevada fuelled by coal. A steam–electric power station is a power station in which the electric generator is steam-driven: water is heated, evaporates, and spins a steam turbine which drives an electric generator.

Perry K. Generating Station is a small multi-fired power station producing steam for one of the largest central district steam heating systems in the United States. The plant is located on the south side of downtown Indianapolis , at the intersection of Kentucky Avenue and West Street.
The Dickerson Generating Station is an 853 MW electric generating plant owned by NRG Energy, located approximately two miles west of Dickerson, Maryland, on the eastern banks of the Potomac River. Description
In 2006, Brunner Island ranked 27th on the list of most-polluting major power station in the US in terms of sulphur dioxide gas emission rate: it discharged 20.49 pounds (9.29 kg) of SO 2 for each MWh of electric power produced that year (93,545 tons of SO 2 per year in total). [9]
The Waterside station also later served as a cogeneration facility and generated steam for the New York City steam system. The power plant was decommissioned by Con Edison in 2005 and sold to private developers as part of the East River Repowering Project, which increased the capacity of the East River Generating Station at East 14th Street to ...
The Harry Allen Generating Station is a 628-megawatt (842,000 hp) natural gas fired combined cycle power plant located in Clark County, Nevada about 30 mi (48 km) north of Las Vegas. Electricity is generated by two GE Frame 7EA combustion turbines, two GE Frame 7FA+e combustion turbines, and a D11 steam turbine.
