Best Answer

A power plant which produces 500 million watts (500 megawatts)

The actual rating would be 500MWh's ( the hours are implied in this case.) This is not always the output from the plant, but rather the plants uppermost limit of production capability under perfect conditions.

How much does a house use? This can vary a lot. If we assume 2kW per house on average, we get 250,000 houses, but if you have electric cooking and heating this could easily come to 20kW per house. The trouble with supplying electricity is that loading can vary so much from season to season and over 24 hours.

Considering a 75% PLF, the power plantwith generate 350MW. This is equivalent to 350,000 KW. Therefore, in a day, the power plant will generate 8,400,000 units (8,400,000 KWh). - Aditya

How many megawatts do tidal turbines produce in day?

A typical nuclear power plant produces 500 to 5000 megawatts of power. If we take 2000 as average, an average plant produces 2000 megawatt hours in an hour, or 48,000 megawatt hours in a day. But please note: Technically, this does not answer the question asked, because the question asked for megawatts, not megawatt hours. The question as asked is like asking how many horsepower a car can produce in a day. The measure of electrical output over a period of time is a watt hour, or, in this case, the megawatt hour. So the question answered was, "How many megawatt hours does a nuclear power plant make in a day?"

What is the largest hydroelectric project?

Hoover Dam is the largest hydro electric dam in the world. This Is Totally Wrong. The Largest Hydro-Electric Dam In North America Is The Mighty Grand Coulee Dam In The State Of Washington Which Produces 3 Times The Megawatts As Hoover Dam. Grand Coulee Produces 6,809 megawatts And Hoover Dam Only 2,078 megawatts. The Mighty Grand Coulee Contains Nearly 12 Million Cubic Yars Of Concrete And Hoover Only 3,250,000 Cubic Yards. Grand Coulee Dam Contains In It's Third Powerhouse 3 Of The Worlds Largest Generators At 805 Megawatts Each. The Mighty Columbia River Flows 3 Times The Water As Does The Colorado. These Two Dams Are Not Even Close In Comparison.
