For reference, about 10,000 100-watt lightbulbs or 5,000 computer systems would be needed to draw 1 MW. Also, 1 MW is approximately 1360 horsepower. Modern high-power diesel-electric locomotives typically have a peak power of 3–5 MW, while a typical modern nuclear power plant produces on the order of 500–2000 MW peak output.
As of 2019, no power station comparable to Three Gorges is under construction, as the largest under construction power station is the hydroelectric Baihetan Dam (16,000 MW). [2] The proposed 20,000 MW Australia's Darwin Solar Park, for the Australia-Asia Power Link, would be slightly below the capacity of the Three Gorges Dam.
Map of all utility-scale power plants. This article lists the largest electricity generating stations in the United States in terms of installed electrical capacity. Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal, fuel oils, nuclear, natural gas, oil shale, and peat, while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass, geothermal heat, hydro, solar energy, solar heat ...

While traditional data centers consumed 20 to 100 megawatts in 2020, today's AI workloads require 200+ megawatts -- with a single Nvidia B200 chip now consuming as much electricity per day as an ...
On railways, modern high-powered electric locomotives typically have a peak power output of 5 or 6 MW, while some produce much more. The Eurostar e300, for example, uses more than 12 MW, while heavy diesel-electric locomotives typically produce and use 3 and 5 MW. U.S. nuclear power plants have net summer capacities between about 500 and 1300 MW.
This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Utah, sorted by type and name.In 2022, Utah had a total summer capacity of 9,627 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 39,386 GWh. [2]
Block 5 of Irsching Power Station in Southern Germany uses natural gas as fuel in a combined cycle converting 1750 megawatts of thermal energy to 847 net MW of usable electricity. It cost €450 million to build. [34] This works out to some €531 per kW of capacity. However, due to the uneconomical prospect of operating it as a peaking power ...
