gas turbine are used for expansion of high pressure gas,which rotates the rotor coupled with generator and hence electricity is finally produced.Gas turbine operate on brayton cycle.

Are all turbines powered by steam?

No, there are gas turbines powered by hot gas formed by the burning of kerosene (in aircraft engines) or by natural gas combustion for electrical generation. Gas turbines are also used in some naval ships. Then there are water turbines as used in hydro power. Also, wind can drive turbines.

What advantages of gas turbine compared to steam power plant?

Gas turbines are typically much smaller and therefore cheaper. Also, steam turbines require a long time for the fuel (coal, oil, uranium) to heat up the water and so changes in power output are slow. Gas turbines rely partly on the burning and instant expansion of gases, meaning that turbines start and stop much faster.
