Thermal means "relating to heat." Geothermal (Earth's heat energy) energy is tapped by pumping water down deep bore holes under pressure, the water heats up and turns to steam. When it returns to the surface the steam is used to drive generators, whcih it turn produce electricity. Iceland, which has a lot of volcanic areas and hot springs, makes considerable use of geothermal energy.

How is the Deemed Generation calculated in the thermal power Plant?
plant total generation + deemed generation divided by plant capacity multiply by no of hours
Could the US reduce its use of oil by increasing use of nuclear power plants?
Yes, dramatically. Especially if we switched to hydrogen fuel cell cars and produced the hydrogen in the nuclear power plants by direct thermal conversion without generation of electricity.
What is the principle of thermal power plant?
To produce electricity by the use of thermal energy in the form of heat.
Who invented thermal power?
Lonnie johnson
Steam turbine and internal combustion gas engine for power generation?
Yes, they are both used for power generation
What is the Cost of 1 MW generation of power in thermal power plant?
The cost of 1 MW power generation is Rs. 5.0 crores in thermal power plant.
Which one of the following contributes maximum share in power generation?
Renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, contribute the maximum growth in power generation globally. These sources are becoming increasingly cost-effective and sustainable, leading to their widespread adoption in many countries.
Which kind of power type for the largest share of power generation in India?
THERMAL
Largest size thermal power plant in India?
More than 65% of India's electricity generation capacity comes from thermal power plants, with about 85% of the country's thermal power generation being coal-based. The 10 largest thermal power stations operating in India are all coal-fired, with seven of them owned and operated by state-run National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC).
How much power generation in Muzaffar Garh Thermal Power Station?
m/thermal consists of 5X210+1x320 MW capacity that is all steam power generation. so its total installed capacity is 1070 MW.
How is the Deemed Generation calculated in the thermal power Plant?
plant total generation + deemed generation divided by plant capacity multiply by no of hours
What is the history of thermal energy?
The first country in the world to use thermal energy for large scale power generation was New Zealand.
What is the profit of MHD Power generation?
use of MHD generator's concept in power generation will lead the power sector to increase the efficiency to approx.80%,specially for thermal power plants whose efficiency lies in 35-40%. as we are knowing that,In MHD power generation kinetic energy or thermal energy is directly converted to electrical energy and also it has no moving parts.so,it is more advantageous.
How much carbon emission will 1 MW of Thermal Power generation cause?
1 ton
What is the name of thermal station at faisalabad in Pakistan?
Northern Power Generation Compny Limited (GENCO III). Its headquater in Muzafargradh, Pakistan.
Which metals is used for generation of Nuclear Power?
Fission power plants: * Uranium * Plutonium * Thorium Radioisotope thermal generators: * Plutonium * Strontium * Polonium * Curium * Americium
Why thermal power stations located in India?
the thermal power stations are not only located in India, they are located in the part of the world where there are coal reserves, India has large coal reserve located in various parts of M.P,C.G,JHARKHAND & KOLKATA,this is the reason behind the location of thermal power stations in India,as these stations use coal for the generation of electricity
