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 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.
Will the power station for coal generate a lot of power?
yes
What type of energy is in a coal fired power station?
A coal-fired power station primarily generates thermal energy from burning coal. The heat produced is used to generate steam, which drives turbines to produce electricity.
What produces cheaper electricity- a coal burning station or a nuclear power station?
coal
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.
How much electricity does a coal power station supply?
it depends on how big the power station is
Does biomass use heat to generate electricity?
Yes, you burn biomass to generate electricity, the same as a fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) power station, except without causing global warming.
What is an advatage of using coal power over solar power to generate electricity?
coal power can be generated at night
How does a gas-powered station work?
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.
How coal is used to make electricity?
Coal is used to generate almost half of all electricity produced in the United States. Besides electric utility companies, industries and businesses with their own power plants use coal to generate electricity. Power plants burn coal to make steam. The steam turns turbines which generate electricity.
