Edison was the first to build and run a power station, on a small scale but supplying a number of consumers
How many people are needed to work at a coal power plant depends on the size and age of the plant, among other things.
A pithead is a power plant that is located in coal min e itself and thus reduces operating cost as transportation cost of carrying coal to power plant is reduced.
yes a coal is nature nuclear uses lots of power Process for production of power from coal is very inefficient , More over it produces lot of carbon dioxide in to atmosphere (harmful green house gas). While Process for production of power from Nuclear plant is very good when compared with coal power. But initial and maintenance cost is very high. Unit cost for coal power is more economical than nuclear power. So economically coal power station is better. But on the basis of efficiency Nuclear power stations are good. When the deaths caused by the two types of mining are considered, coal fired systems have a much higher overall death rate. But the coal mining industry is improving this.
Coal fired, Nuclear Power, Gas Fired, Hydro, Wind Power.
A power plant in which coal is burned to move generating turbines to produce electricity.
Atomic Energy plant, Oil fired plant, Gas fired plant, Coal fired Plant, Gas Turbine plant, Hydroelectric plant, Wave power, Wind power, Solar panel type
A good example of a thermal power plant is run that is coal fired.
emission are lower
a coal fired power plant.
A conventional plant costs about $780 million to build, according to Bechtel...a comparable coal-gas plant would cost about $975 million. source: http://money.cnn.com/2004/10/18/news/economy/coal/
Coal Power plants are cheaper to build.
A large coal-fired power plant typically produces around 500-1000 megawatts of electricity per hour, depending on its size and efficiency.

Have you ever heard of the Chernobyl power plant? A coal fired plant can't produce a disaster of that magnitude, and people worry about the potential consequences.
