Common fuels in use in fueled power plants are coal, oil, natural gas, biogas, and biomass. In nuclear reactors uranium and plutonium are often descibed as 'fuel'; thorium is a possibility that is still considered experimental.
The conversion of fuel into electricity in a power plant is referred to as its "thermal efficiency." This term measures how effectively the plant converts the energy stored in fuel into electrical energy. In this case, if 35% of the fuel's energy is converted into electricity, the thermal efficiency of the power plant would be 35%.
shielding, fuel, control rods, moderator, and coolant
as it still has energy in it.
Uranium (or plutonium) is a source of energy (nuclear fuel) in nuclear power plants.
Because coal is the most abundant fossil fuel in the world, a coal power plant can last for many, many years to come. It is also a cheaper fuel, which makes it more reliable than petroleum or natural gas.
It is the efficiency of the power plant.
A fossil fuel power plant is a system of devices for the conversion of fossil fuel energy to mechanical work or electric energy

A power plant that runs on waste wood and similar biological fuel.

The amount of fuel needed to run a power plant for one day will vary depending on the type of fuel used (e.g., coal, natural gas, nuclear). For example, a coal-fired power plant may require several thousand tons of coal per day, while a natural gas power plant may need thousands of cubic meters of natural gas. The specific fuel consumption rate of the power plant and its efficiency will also impact the amount of fuel needed.
The official name for it is Biomass, which means using plant material as a fuel for some sort of power plant
Natural uranium
Uranium is the fuel that is used.
Cola is a renewable thermal fuel power source. It is not radioactive in the sense of nuclear plant fuel.
It starts by power plant suitable site selection and manpower development.
A nuclear power plant does use uranium as fuel It "burns" it in the nuclear sense not the chemical sense
