    The document summarizes the key aspects of a coal-fired power plant, including the process of burning coal to create steam that spins a turbine and generates electricity. It notes that China is the largest coal consumer in the world, generating over 68% of its electricity from coal. Maintaining and operating a coal plant comes at a high capital cost, with a new 600MW plant estimated to cost over $2 billion. However, coal-fired power also causes environmental effects like global warming, air pollution, and health impacts on people.

    COALFIRED POWER PLANT

    A. PROCESS
    Burn the coal into the boiler Flows into the turbine Heat the water into the steam Spins as electromagnet called electricity

    Goes to the electricity wires at homes

    B. AVAILABILITY IN COUNTRY

    The largest coal consumer in the world. Generating 1.95 trillion kilowatt-hours

    per year, or 68.7% of its electricity from coal as of 2006 (compared to 1.99 trillionkilowatt-hours per year, or 49% for the US).

    C. MAINTENANCE

    Rated evaporation capacity: 750 KW Category: Electrical Equipments & Supplies/Power Distribution Equipment Related Keywords: Coal Fired Power Plant

    D.CAPITAL COST

    RECENTLY AS 2005; Cost as little - $1,500/kW to

    $1,800/kW.
    Estimated Cost - $3,500 per kW
    Expected to increase over - $2

    billion for a new 600 MW

    E.ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS

    GLOBAL WARMING

    AIR POLLUTION
