they burn the fossel fuels which heats the water then the water turns to steam and then the steam is forced through big fans called turbines then it goes to a generator which turns it into electrical energy then it goes to a transformer then to the pylons.
burning the fossel fuels- heat energy/chemical energy
when the steam goes through the turbines-kinetic energy
when it gets to the generator-electrical energy
Fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric power stations and nuclear power stations.
There will be fewer power stations in the future due to the transition to renewable energy sources, like solar and wind, which are decentralized and can be generated closer to where energy is needed. Advances in energy storage technology also reduce the need for large centralized power stations. Additionally, increased energy efficiency measures and a shift towards distributed energy systems further contribute to the decrease in the number of power stations.
Nuclear power stations collect nuclear energy, and produce heat energy and electrical energy.
Renewable energy
The three main types of power stations are thermal power stations, hydroelectric power stations, and nuclear power stations. Thermal power stations generate electricity by burning fossil fuels, while hydroelectric power stations harness the energy of flowing water. Nuclear power stations utilize nuclear fission to produce heat, which is then converted into electricity. Each type has its own advantages and environmental considerations.
A power station's turbine converts steam energy into rotary energy to drive the generator.
It is coal. Singapore's power stations are not based on coal fossil fuel.Singapore has no indigenous energy resources, and is dependent on energy imports to support her overall energy needs.

Hydropower
There are around 2,000 hydroelectric power stations in Britain. These power stations generate renewable energy by using the flow of water in rivers and streams to turn turbines and produce electricity.
Renewable power stations generate electricity from naturally replenishing sources such as sunlight, wind, water, or geothermal heat. For example, solar power stations use photovoltaic panels to convert sunlight into electricity, while wind power stations use turbines to harness wind energy. These power stations produce clean energy with minimal environmental impact compared to traditional fossil fuel-based power plants.
