What else can I help you with?
Which type of power station uses chemical energy to generate electricity coal fired or nuclear?
A coal-fired power station uses chemical energy from burning coal to generate electricity. A nuclear power station uses nuclear reactions to generate electricity.
What do you call places where fuels are burned to generate electricity?
A power plant or generating station.
What is the difference between electricity being made in a fossil fuel power station to being made in a nuclear power station?
The difference is only the material that is being used to generate electricity.
What happens in the turbines in a power station?
In a power station, the turbines are responsible for converting the kinetic energy from steam or flowing water into mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to produce electricity. As the turbines spin, they generate rotational motion that is used to generate electricity effectively.
How does gas fired power station works?
A gas fired power station burns gas to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. (That should be a record number of verbs used in one sentence ;-) A coal fired power station burns coal to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A nuclear power station uses the heat of nuclear reactions to heat water ... A hydro power station uses falling water to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity.
Does sound energy generate electricity in a power station?
Yes, sound energy can be converted into electricity in a power station using piezoelectric materials. These materials can generate an electric charge in response to mechanical stress, such as sound waves. However, the efficiency of this process is currently low compared to other methods of generating electricity.
How does a gas-powered station work?

What is coal sed for?
Coal is used for burning to make heat. At home in a fire, at a power station to generate electricity.
Where does a generating station get its power?
There are several ways to generate electricity. Solar, wind, coal, nuclear, diesel etc.
Can you put the word hydroelectric in a sentence?
In hydroelectric power station we use the potential energy of water to generate electricity.
What can solar power generate?
solar power can generate electricity
What is the power station on the Waikato River?
There are nine hydroelectric power stations that generate electricity on the Waikato River. They were constructed between 1929 and 1971.
