It is any modern power system that uses fossil fuels as power.. There are only two useful types of power generation at the moment. Fossil and nuclear. The "Alternative" energy systems do not yet produce any real power. Wind and solar produce less energy then it cost (in terms of energy) to make the system. Thus these systems are actually bad for the environment and consume power to give us some of it back later.
Fossil fuels are burned to spin a generator which in turn produces electricity.
to make power for somthing using a tipe of fossil fuel.
To convert the heat of combustion to steam which can be used in an engine.
Not if it uses fuel derived from fossil oil deposits or other fossil fuels which are not renewable. If it uses bio fuel then that is renewable, as a new crop grows every year.
Fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas are burned in power plants to generate heat. This heat is used to turn water into steam, which drives a turbine connected to a generator. The generator produces electricity which is then transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses.
Its 'a' generator ! And no, a generator still needs fuel to run
Fossil fuel power stations burn coal, oil, or natural gas to generate electricity. The fuel is burned in a boiler to produce steam, which then drives a turbine connected to a generator that produces electricity. The electricity is then sent through power lines for distribution to homes and businesses.
The heat from coal turns water into steam. It is the steam that turns generator turbine blades to create electricity.
No its not a fossil fuel
Oil is a fossil fuel.
Fossil fuel is cheap
