  2. A1B reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A1B_reactor

    Using A4W data [5] with a 25% increase in thermal power, the A1B reactors are likely to produce enough steam to generate 125 megawatts (168,000 hp) of electricity, plus 350,000 shaft horsepower (260 MW) from just one reactor to power the four propeller shafts.

  3. Gas-fired power plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-fired_power_plant

    A cogeneration plant in Berlin Gas generates over 20% of world electricity Share of electricity production from gas. A gas-fired power plant, sometimes referred to as gas-fired power station, natural gas power plant, or methane gas power plant, is a thermal power station that burns natural gas to generate electricity.

  4. Energy in Zimbabwe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Zimbabwe

    Zimbabwe has 30 billion tons of coal in 21 known deposits. This could last for over 100 years at the 2001 rate of production. In September 2013, the Chinese-backed company China Africa Sunlight Energy said it would begin work in early 2014 on a 600 MW coal-fired electricity plant in western Zimbabwe, part of $2 billion of energy projects in the country.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal-fired_power_station

    As of 2020, coal was the largest single source of electricity generation, fueling two-thirds of global electricity generation, [12] and representing 34% of the total supply. [27] Over half of global coal-fired generation in 2020 occurred in China, [ 27 ] and coal provided approximately 60% of electricity in China, India and Indonesia.

    Locations are shoreline, nearshore and offshore. Types of power take-off include: hydraulic ram, elastomeric hose pump, pump-to-shore, hydroelectric turbine, air turbine, [35] and linear electrical generator. Different conversion routes from wave energy to useful energy in terms or electricity or direct use. The four most common approaches are:

  7. Economics of nuclear power plants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economics_of_nuclear_power...

    Doubling the price of uranium would add about 10% to the cost of electricity produced in existing nuclear plants, and about half that much to the cost of electricity in future power plants. [53] The cost of raw uranium contributes about $0.0015/kWh to the cost of nuclear electricity, while in breeder reactors the uranium cost falls to $0.000015 ...

  9. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

    The typical efficiency of TEGs is around 5–8%, although it can be higher. Older devices used bimetallic junctions and were bulky. More recent devices use highly doped semiconductors made from bismuth telluride (Bi 2 Te 3), lead telluride (PbTe), [10] calcium manganese oxide (Ca 2 Mn 3 O 8), [11] [12] or combinations thereof, [13] depending on application temperature.
