Technically yes....water is used in steam power generation, nuclear (cooling the reactor), gas turbine (again cooling), and obviously hydro. Perferably, no. Salt is very coerosive, causing the life of the plant to decrease. The water cycles vary by the plant type and location, but you can expect most directly involved in power generation to be closed purified systems.

What else can I help you with?
Is saltwater a condutor or insulator?
It conducts electricity. REALLY good conductor.
How was electricity dicovered?
Electricity is an important aspect of life. The earliest record of bioelectricity(a form of electricity) dates back to 1791 by Luigi Galvani.
Does the Crist power plant produce electricity by burning coal to create steam to power a turbine?
Yes the James F. Crist Generating Plant located in Pensacola, Florida burns coal to both heat and turn water into steam which is used to turn a turbine connected to an electrical generator which produces the electricity. It's total generating capacity is 970,000 KW, and it has four (4) generating units.
Why would seawater be a better conductor of electricity than river water?
Water is actually a weak insulator and does not transmit current well unless it has ions in it, like saltwater does. Seaweeds are limited in their abilities to conduct electricity per se, but as they come from saltwater, the salts still present on their "leaves" conduct relatively well.
Why is electricity not a fuel?
Any fuel converts chemical potential energy contained in the fuel into some other form of energy such as heat to make electricity. Electricity is not a substance so contains no chemical potential energy.
When was Central Electricity Generating Board created?
Central Electricity Generating Board was created in 1957.
What is Kenya Electricity Generating Company's population?
Kenya Electricity Generating Company's population is 1,600.
How do electricity generating boards measure electricity?
.
When was Kenya Electricity Generating Company created?
Kenya Electricity Generating Company was created on 1998-10-02.
What are the benefits of dams?
generating electricity
Can saltwater conduct electricity?
Yes, you silly.
What electricity is produced at a generating?
Electricity produced at a generating station is typically alternating current (AC) electricity. This type of electricity is used for transmitting power over long distances and is the form of electricity supplied to homes and businesses.
Why were nuclear electricity generating plants set up?
To generate electricity.
Which fuels are generating electricity in Tanzania?
iii
Which is the best source of generating electricity in India from the viewpoint of sustainable development?
Hydro electricity
What is an electricity-generating station called?
A power station
What does nuclear do?
Provides a power source for generating electricity
