A coal fired station burns coal to produce heat.
The heat boils water to produce high pressure and temperature steam.
The steam expands in a turbine to rotate the shaft.
The turbines rotation drives a generator.
The generator produces electricity which is sent out to the consumers.

Describe 6 difference method of producing electricity?
Hydro electricity (Water power) Diesel generator Coal fired power station Nuclear power station Gas fired power station Wind turbine generators.
How Fire can produce electricity?
As in a coal power station? Water is heated by the fire, makes steam, turns turbines- electricity.
Is electricity from nuclear power the same as more powerful or radioactive compared to electrical energy from other power plants?
The electricity is exactly the same as from a fossil fired power station, generated from the same type of generator
What are the energy transformations in a coal fired power station?
Coal is burned to produce heat, which then is transferred to water/steam, which produces mechanical power in the steam turbine, which produces electrical power from the generator
Do nuclear power station produce co2?
The generating process in which the electricity is made produces no co2, however during the whole process of nuclear power there are co2 emissions.
Describe 6 difference method of producing electricity?
Hydro electricity (Water power) Diesel generator Coal fired power station Nuclear power station Gas fired power station Wind turbine generators.
What is a power station for?
To produce electricity
Which type of power station uses chemical energy to generate electricity coal fired or nuclear?
Coal fired
What is used in Singapore's power station to produce electricity?
gas
What was the original Function of Battersea Power Station?
To produce electricity
Which is Ireland's largest power station?
Ireland's largest power station is the Aghada gas-fired station. It is near Midleton in the east of the county of Cork. It is an electricity generating station, owned by the ESB (Electricity Supply Board), Ireland's main electricity provider.
What does huntly power station uses to produce electricity?
coal and gas
What is coal fired power?
A power plant in which coal is burned to move generating turbines to produce electricity.
How much electricity does coal fired power plant produce?
A coal fired station burns coal to produce heat. The heat boils water to produce high pressure and temperature steam. The steam expands in a turbine to rotate the shaft. The turbines rotation drives a generator. The generator produces electricity which is sent out to the consumers. . I hope this helped, believe me i am a proffesional scientist
Do geothermal power stations make pollution?
No. Construction equipment used to build the station will burn fossil fuels and produce some pollution. When the station is complete it will produce pollution free electricity. The station will require some electric power from the grid to operate, and some of that electricity may be produced by coal powered plants which do produce pollution, but the geothermal power station will not produce pollution.
How is the power-station the same as a wind powered turbine?
They both produce electricity
Why is it useful for an incinerator and a power station to be built close to one another?
the power station absorbs the smoke from the incinerator to produce electricity
