Using a boiler and turbine, the fuel consumption is about 0.3 pounds per horsepower per hour. So 500 MW would require about 90 tons of fuel each hour.

Why do you burn fuels?
to produce energy, which gives people electricity etc
Advantages of fuels?
Advantages of fuels: Easily Available, Produce Large Amount of Energy, High Calorific Value and Stability. The highest consumption rate in todayâ??s world is of fossil fuel.
When fuels are burnt the chemical energy changes to what?
When fuels are burnt first of all chemical energy changes to heat energy and sometimes to light energy as well. then we convert the heat energy into other usable forms of energy. For example, coal is burnt in thermal power stations to produce heat which is then converted to electricity. Vehicles convert chemical energy of fuels to heat and then use this heat to do mechanical work. The process of conversion is complex in both cases.
How do chloroplasts and mitochondria work together in a plant cell?
Mitochondria are the part of the cell that produce the energy-providing ATP. Chloroplasts turn the energy from the sunlight into glucose, which fuels the mitochondria.
Why is it difficult to burn hydrocarbons fuels?
I think it because there is more energy needed in order to break down the bonds in the hydrocarbon. Making it less efficient for fuels
Are fuels produced from energy crops able to be stored?
Yes, fuels produced from energy crops are storable.
Are fossil fuels used to produce energy?
All fuels by definition are used to produce energy, fossil fuels are no exception. (Shorter answer: Yes.)
Why are alternative fuels called green energy?
they produce energy in a more environmentally friendly way then fossil fuels do
Why alternative fuels called Green Energy?
they produce energy in a more environmentally friendly way then fossil fuels do
Why do you use fossil fuels for energy?
they do not produce pollution
What is the process of converting the chemical energy in fuels to electrical energy?
A simple answer is that fossil fuels are burnt. The heat is used to produce steam which drives mechanical turbines and dynamos, which then produce electricity.

How is fossil fuels used to produce energy?
when we burn fossil fuels such as oil,gas and coal we produce heat.This can be used to fuel power plants which is where most of our energy for electronic devices and heating are funded
How is energy produce d from fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels (hence the name) are natural fuels that come from decayed bodies (humus or fossils) in the earth.
List positive effects on fossil fuels?
Produce large amounts of energy
How does nuclear energy help mars?
It does not produce greenhouse gases, as fossil fuels do.
